Irene Halkia was born in Halkidiki. She started her journey with the sea as her compass and family members with firm roots in tradition. Growing up in her father’s workshop, she learned early on to love and work clothing. She studied marketing and soon sprang into action by putting together her first resort wear store. In 2014, she launched her own brand, It’s All Greek On Me, drawing inspiration from anything and everything Greek. Today, the label’s creations adorn the racks of numerous stores in Greece, New York, Mexico and Australia. 

 “Our roots yield a marriage of the unseen and the eternal. This is what drives me. My dowry were colours, textures and techniques from tradition – everything I will define as

c l a s s i c, G r e e k, worthy of inspiring local, native production; of transformation into a simple textile that will soothe our human nature. 

I am many things – amongst others, I.Me > ειμί > είμαι – I am also what I wear.”
