Hi, I'm Rachel, an Irish textile designer working under the name anracheleile. I create dresses, bags, swimwear, and one-of-a-kind upcycled pieces.
I spend my time travelling between Ireland and Spain, with a big love for Barcelona, where much of my inspiration comes from. Both Ireland and Spain have had a huge influence on my work. I think the two cultures complement each other beautifully, and each brings something unique to the creative process.
I've always been drawn to creativity, fashion, and nature, and my work is a blend of all three.
With a BA (Hons) in Fine Art Painting from NCAD and training in sewing at the Grafton Academy, I work across textile design, pattern drafting, garment design, and creative direction.
This multidisciplinary approach forms the foundation of my brand, anracheleile.
