IN PARTNERSHIP WITH IRELANDSEYE KNITWEAR
Find treasured presents for loved ones that last much longer than the holiday season; beautifully designed, authentically Irish and personally packed …
We know how difficult it can be to source something “just right” for friends and family – something that ticks fashion trends, and is both beautiful and useful. Though it’s tempting to keep our sources close to our chest, we’ve decided to share where we will be shopping for versatile gifts this Christmas – from IrelandsEye Knitwear.
This Irish family-run business, based in Baldoyle Dublin, has been making knitwear for over 35 years. Inspired by the Irish landscape and the colours of nature, the brand combines a traditional Irish knitwear heritage with its own unique twist, creating knitwear for all occasions. All pieces are created with love, finished by hand and pass through over 27 pairs of skilled hands before leaving the factory to customers all over the world.
This season, they are making gift selection stress free due to the covetable new collections: the Haven (for women) and Cuanna (for men), which incorporate fine merino wool pieces that provide warmth, comfort and style, whatever the occasion.
The selection of colour for women from IrelandsEye is exceptional, including zesty orange, red, bright green, pale pinks, chartreuse and sky blues, but The Haven Collection offers more neutral choices such as larimar, eggshell, khaki and bone, and Berry, the colour of the season.
Top picks are the funky, loose fit Sanderling playsuit (€164.95), which can be styled up or worn casually with a base layer. There’s the high-waisted Whimbrel maxi skirt (€169.95), stunning Kestrel cropped palazzo trousers (€159.95) and the long-line Raven cardigan (€184.95), all elegant for pared-down dressing.
The Robin Shawl cardigan is one of the bestsellers in The Haven collection, available in six colours, €194.95. The Larimar colour, a marl of pale turquoise and teal, is particularly lovely. It’s made with the softest of merino wool and can be worn as a co-ord with the Whimbrel skirt, €169.95, Kestrel cropped trousers, €159.95 or Sanderling jumpsuit, €164.95. THE GLOSS editors favour this cardi for in transit travel to stay stylish on the go.
For the classicists on your list, the Corbin cable crew neck sweater, €159.95, channels the current “old money” and preppy aesthetics. Worn with cords, flannel trousers or jeans, this new addition to the range is gorgeous in eggshell, a marl colour of ecru and dusty grey, and is an investment trans-seasonal purchase.
There is also a great selection of small but meaningful gifts, including scarves and beanies (from €64.95 and €33.95) and the Melinda knitted shoulder bag (€79.95). For homebodies, there is also plenty of newness with blankets, throws and cushions in six colours.
For men, the Cuanna Collection comprises lambswool sweaters and cardigans, in addition to a fine-knit Jersey Hoodie (€189.95) in a choice of five colours. For dads, the timeless Cuileann crew neck sweater (€104.95) and the Woodford Aran Cardigan (€119.95) are staples that will be appreciated throughout the year.
