• Sketch - The Store

    Sketch - The Store is located in the heart of Leixlip, Co. Kildare by Sarah-Kate. Remarkably, this store marks the third generation of her family in this location. Since launching in November of last year, the store itself has hosted international brands carefully selected from around the world, the latest additions being contemporary knitwear brand Hope Macaulay from Northern Ireland and Safiyaa London, a demi-couture brand with striking silhouettes and luxe fabrics. The collections featured reflect snapshots of what Sketch aims to create, a store that has something for every woman, for every occasion, and available at every price point.

  • About Us

    If you are new to our story, here is a recap of our brand journey so far: We opened our doors on November 1 2023 and saw our first season through as a stockist of uniquely sourced and carefully selected fashion-forward brands from around the world.

    “First and foremost, I am a retailer with a passion for creative design, who is best served in the dressing room making sure the most perfect possible look is chosen for the wearer. Great relationships have been part of our DNA since opening our lifestyle store and it is essential that Sketch • The Label holds true to these principles.”

    Hope Macaulay

    Hope Macaulay is a woman-owned contemporary luxury fashion brand, founded by young textiles designer Hope from the beautiful North Coast of Northern Ireland.

    Just two years after graduating, Hope Macaulay emerged in 2020 as an inspiring, slow fashion, global brand, hailed by the fashion world as dopamine dressing. What began as Hope knitting alone in her bedroom has expanded into a team of 20 skilled knitters working from home across Northern Ireland.

    Hope is best known for her creation of the signature statement piece, the Colossal Knit Cardigan. Unable to find pieces to make from other’s knitting patterns, she developed her own method, just by using her hands. By mastering a unique knitting technique that uses no needles, Hope has trained her knitters to create her designs, her favourites made from sustainably sourced materials like luxury merino wool.

    This AW24 we are thrilled to introduce this collection to our store.
