About

'Kelly's Cellar' explores Eliza Douglas’s complex relationship to Northern Ireland’s many facets and draws inspiration from the country’s strong textile heritage as well as the atmosphere of the old pubs her father loves to visit. Creating a rugged and romantic vision, Eliza celebrates the individualism of the men in her life who wear her beautiful, hand-crafted pieces with pride. A subtle colour palette evokes windswept, earthy landscapes. Richly textured pieces utilise donated fine linens from John England which are combined with deadstock fabrics and an innovative custom zero-waste yarn inspired by traditional methods of tweed manufacture.
