Thinkhouse PR & Barrys Tea organised a really interesting evening with tea and cakes in Cooke’s Cafe on South William Street on Thursday. Two of Berlin’s top designers were over for a presentation with the Irish design & tea loving community.
I went with a couple of fellow connectors & I met Chewy fromThinkhouse PR there who was also at the November Connector. He introduced me to Damien Gahan from Circus Store who is pictured above.
Circus Store is a fashion collective of four individuals; Aisling Farinella, Fiona Mullen, Damien Gahan, and Ciara O’Donovan who work together to create a retail space and gallery which reflects their individual fashion aspirations. Circus stocks an eclectic variety of directional mens and womens designers exclusive to Ireland, every piece is carefully choosen for its design aesthetic as well as its construction.
Key seasonal designers include; Marjan Pejoski, Camilla Staerk, Unconditional, Henrik Vibskov, and Gaspard Yurkievich. The store also stocks a small selection of ‘one off’ collectible vintage pieces from designers such as Christian Dior, Issey Miyake and Sonia Rykiel.
I may pop in there as I do like the sound of Uncondiitional …
