Alison Ireland

Picture
​Olivia Rose Vintage & Craft, a handmade clothing business, was created by Alison Ireland in the beautiful Herefordshire countryside. Born with a passion for creativity and raised in Ross-on-Wye, Alison studied Product Design and Fine Art alongside gaining a Diploma in Design & Product Innovation.
Having spent years dabbling in a variety of crafts, from furniture restoration to cake design, the business was inspired by her two young daughters and their refusal to wear coats in the way they were intended.
For children, in an era where fairy tales and magical stories are abundant, the cape wields a mystical appeal and a physical extension for their creative minds. The use of vibrant colours and patterns draws the eye in the summer and super soft Sherpa fleece keeps them warm in the winter. For Alison, a product is not worth making if it doesn’t pass a child’s seal of approval!
Due to high demand (and jealousy from many grown-ups), the business has quickly expanded to include all types of Fashion Capes, Ponchos and accessories for both adults, children... and the odd pet.
By stepping back in time to the fashions of early 1900’s to 1920’s, she was able to combine her love of country-inspired fabrics and colour, vintage design and handmade craft.
Plus, look out for locally inspired pieces too including Sheep print fabrics in honour of the Forest of Dean, Woodland Print for the Wye Valley and Hedgehog print for her hometown of Ross-on-Wye.
