First look: Avoca launches autumn winter collection and new website for online shopping

Avoca AW23

Avoca has launched its latest autumn-winter collection, featuring bold colours, and new niche brands.

The latest collection was unveiled in the surroundings of Avoca Kilmacanogue this week where guests dined in the Fern House Café.

A big focal point for the new season is Avoca’s 300-year anniversary of its outwear collection as it celebrates three centuries of handweaving tradition at the Avoca Mill in Wicklow.

Avoca has also elevated its fashion offering across all stores with edits from much-loved heritage brands like Barbour and Tommy Hilfiger. Continuing to fuse the old with the new, Avoca is also unveiling its new website, where customers can shop the full collection.

Highlights from the outerwear collection include statement contemporary wool coats like the Classic Donegal Mohair Purple Coat, (€495) made from a heavy Donegal yarn woven with a unbrushed looped mohair in a large herringbone weave.
