Come and join us for a trip down memory lane at this fashion lecture.
Fashion historian Ruth Griffin and fashion editor Deirdre McQuillan in conversation about fashion in 1950s Dublin.
From pinstripe suits and tweed to polka dot dresses and berets, John Banville’s Christine Falls vividly brings to life the fashion on the streets of Dublin in the 1950s. Join fashion historian Ruth Griffin and fashion editor Deirdre McQuillan to discover the shopping landscape of the city at the time, and to consider how mentions of fashion draw the reader deeper into the story and enrich our understanding of the characters.
