Iris & Wool is an Australian fashion brand founded by designer Emily Riggs. It is a company with authenticity and sincerity. The Iris in the name is in honour of Emily’s mother – it was her favourite flower. In a world where most companies are driven by the pursuit of profit, experiencing loss at an early age motivated Emily to build a business based on philanthropy, sustainability and love.
Producing luxurious designs crafted from the finest Australian Merino Wool, the brand has established a loyal local following as well as a growing international community.
Emily is passionate about promoting Australian Merino Wool and is dedicated to nurturing and supporting the local industry and community of Australian wool producers. Iris & Wool’s designs can even be traced directly back to these farms. In recognition of this commitment, the company recently achieved the coveted, internationally recognised Woolmark certification mark.
