About
Marlene & Co is a womenswear retailer that operates out of Adare Limerick, Ireland. You can find our new store just off the main street at V94 FC79!
The concept behind Marlene & Co is to curate beautiful pieces of clothing and accessories that have been sustainably made.
We have chosen the brands with care for a multitude of reasons.
To name a few, it may be the brand’s use of natural, organic, recycled or deadstock fabric, their low use of energy and water in their production processes, or their use of bi-products from other industries. The brands are at various stages in their sustainable journey, and we are collectively on that journey together. We invite you to come on this journey with us too!
Marlene & Co was launched by Annmarie Nagle in 2022. Annmarie grew up on a farm in the southeast of Ireland, and credits her mother for teaching her about the importance of caring for our planet.
Annmarie is a graduate of UCD where she studied BComm International with Italian, followed by an MSc in International Management/CEMS. As part of her studies she spent eighteen months studying at the Bocconi University in Milan where she immersed herself in fashion subjects.
Annmarie has a background in fashion and retail, having previously worked in Dunnes Stores buying office, and the wine industry. She finished work to mind her three daughters, and during this time she worked as a Personal Stylist. She always wanted to open a store and work with eco conscious fashion brands, and so Marlene & Co was borne, named after her three daughters.
