Fashion career profile

Simone Rocha

Simone Rocha is an Irish fashion designer and the founder and creative director of her London-based namesake house. Raised in Dublin, she studied at the National College of Art and Design before completing the fashion MA at Central Saint Martins. Rocha presented her graduate collection in 2010 and began showing with Fashion East before establishing an independent schedule and retail business. Her collections combine historical research, sculptural volume, tailoring and intricate surface work with personal studies of family and femininity. The profile keeps her own house distinct from guest collaborations and from the career of her father, designer John Rocha.
