Averil Blakely and Emmy Slattery are two very talented Irish fashion designers who have recently returned from London to launch their new fashion venture, the fabulously entitled Sequins and Threads.

So with their mountain of experience and deadly eye for fashion the girls are putting their talents to good use and delving into the world of Irish Debutantes.
Sequins and Threads is a unique service helping the most stylish debutantes create their ideal debs dress to help them stand out from the crowd.
In the words of Emmy and Averil " The concept behind our new venture is an exclusive and exciting answer to Debs dresses in Ireland. Together, we have researched current catwalk trends, street style and celebrity culture to bring you 5 key looks which, this season we have categorized as ‘Dark Fantasy’,’ Hollywood Glamour’, ‘Let them eat cake’, ‘Only girl in the world’ and ‘Paper Romance’. Mood boards act as a starting point, for each debutant and based on her unique taste and style we will design the dream dress."
So Sequins and Threads offer a unique designing experience resulting in a hand made one of a kind dress, What more could a debutante want!!
Its refreshing to see young Irish designers making a break for it. I know Sequins and Threads will be a huge success, just watch this space!!

Best of luck to the fabulous Averil and Emmy x x
