Delighted to see NCAD alumna Lainey Whelan featured in Evoke, with her hand-printed tights now turning heads on singer CMAT's stage.

Lainey studied at NCAD, where she discovered a love for printmaking, later sharpening her craft on Erasmus in the Netherlands before turning her tights into a full-time business earlier this year.

On what drives her design instinct, she puts it simply: "I just want to do something fun."
