ABOUT
designer bio
Sarah O’Neill, founder of The Zero Waster, is a designer whose work is grounded in the principles of regenerative design. With a deep-rooted respect for natural materials, traditional craftsmanship, and environmental responsibility, Sarah challenges the norms of the fashion industry through innovative reuse and transparency.
Her collections feature conceptual streetwear made from reclaimed and natural materials to create unique, wearable garments. Demonstrating that repurposing waste can uphold both quality and creativity.
Small-batch production and a "nothing goes to waste" philosophy ensure that each garment honours the land and resources it originates from.
Sarah actively partners with local companies across Ireland — including woollen mills — to source deadstock fabrics breathing new life into forgotten textiles.
These collaborations honour both heritage and sustainability, reinforcing her commitment to community-driven, low-impact production.
Every garment made is a commitment to creativity and radical responsibility.
