Live from Paris Fashion Week: Decoding the Luxury Industry Ecosystem in Ireland
This week, we bring you the live podcast episode from our most important event to date: Live from Paris Fashion Week, where we gathered Aoife McNanamara, Una McGurk, Paul Sheeran, Bairbre Power and Shana Chu to discuss how each of them are elevating the Irish fashion ecosystem in all its different forms: from retail to journalism, from beauty and fine jewellery to innovation.
The event took place at the heart of Paris, at the best place to gather an outstanding lineup of Irish speakers: the Embassy of Ireland. Drawing back on the essence of diplomatic union and collaboration, guests were welcomed to a showcase of the best of beauty, fashion, jewelry and spirits Ireland can offer in Paris.
The first room showcased the best of Irish fashion: Aoife McNamara, Colin Burke, Laura Jayne Halton, Kindred of Ireland, The Landskein, Roisin Linnane, The White Era, Tidings, and Ros Duke.
The second room featured a mix of brands with alcoohol-free sparking wine from French Bloom, beautiful lab-grown diamonds from Chupi, and beauty brands Ella & Jo and Seoulista Beauty.
