“That era of designers being away with the fairies is gone... You've go...” — Giles Deacon Quote

“That era of designers being away with the fairies is gone... You've got to live in the real world.”

“At a certain period in time, the fashion industry was portraying this image of a totally unrealistic woman, women who are not allowed to be themselves.”

“Let's be honest: not everybody can afford to buy £5,000 dresses, so the jewellery is a nice of way of getting the Giles product out into the world and introduce it to people not familiar with the label. QVC is a really good partner to help us do that.”

“I like clothes that make me feel good. My favourite designers include Michelle Jonas and Dolce & Gabbana. Their clothes make me feel as if I'm Sophia Loren - really womanly.”

“I love flying the flag for Irish designers like Joanne Hynes, Simone Rocha, Natalie B Coleman, Lennon Courtney and Helen Steele.”

“I'm still enjoying discovering more designers and getting to play dress-up in a bigger way than I ever have before.”
