the designers

John Rocha was born in Hong Kong in 1946. He is an Irish fashion designer of Chinese and Portuguese descent.

Rocha went to London in 1970. He studied at Croydon College of Design and Technology at the Croydon School of Art, London. He made use of Irish linen in his graduation show and was so inspired by the fabric that he visited Ireland and eventually settled there.
