Creative Director & Founder
Deirdre Burke
From a young age, I have been passionate about fashion and design, honing my sewing skills at Muckross Weavers before going on to study at Mallow College of Design and Tailoring. While there, I earned a Diploma in Fashion Design, all while studying Marketing at IT Tralee. My final year collection was inspired by Muckross House in Killarney, featuring classic silhouettes, clean lines, and pops of colour and styles that remain at the heart of my designs today.
As the founder of de Búrca Design & Alterations, based in Beaufort, County Kerry, I specialize in creating bespoke, made-to-measure garments for women who want to feel elegant, confident, and comfortable. Whether designing Mother of the Bride and Groom outfits, race day fashion, or contemporary everyday wear, I focus on flattering shapes and timeless styles, tailored to suit each client’s individual figure and personality.
In addition to bespoke design, I offer expert alterations for men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing, ensuring the perfect fit for any garment. My goal is to help every client feel their best in clothing that fits beautifully and reflects their unique style. Whether you’re looking for a custom-made outfit or need alterations to perfect an existing piece, I’d love to work with you to bring your vision to life.
