Social Pictures: Brown Thomas Spring Summer 2023 International Designer Collections launch

Earlier this week, plenty of familiar faces stepped out for the grand unveiling of the exciting new Spring Summer 2023 International Designer Collections at Brown Thomas.

When was it?

Tuesday 31 January

Where was it?

Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Dublin

Who was there?

Among the members of Ireland’s fashion press, top stylists and content creators present on the day were Lousie Cooney, Tara O’Farrell, Ciara Hughes, PJ Kirby, James Kavanagh, Bonnie Ryan, and our very own Clodagh Edwards and Dominique McMullan.

Why were we there?

Brown Thomas Fashion Director Shelly Corkery welcomed guests as they enjoyed a delicious breakfast of healthy juices, kombucha and trays of healthy treats before taking their seats overlooking the River Liffey on a clear blue sky morning.

The new season collections were showcased in a catwalk show lined with floral sculptures commissioned by London based set designer, Penny Mills. The show featured 100 new season looks from top brands including Prada, Loewe, Erdem Victoria Beckham and Celine.

Spring Summer 2023 is anything but ordinary, step into a diverse season where a new take on femininity is explored in a dynamic yet adaptable way. The new season brings a spectrum of newness from the glamourous ‘Grecian Goddess’ and ‘Shades of Sunset’ to the pared-back ‘Column Dressing’ and ‘Soft Utility. The most sought-after new brands to launch this season at Brown Thomas include The Row, Peter Do, Alex Perry, Carolina Herrera and Coperni.
