Motorola Dublin Fashion Week has ended for another season but a highlight for me personally was the closing event, an intimate interview with designer Paul Costelloe by Sunday Indo fashion editrix Constance Harris. The afternoon event took place in the Odessa club and was attended by many fans, and indeed friends, of Costelloe.

During the interview Paul maintained that Irish people are more quality orientated and not easily led by celebrities, unlike in the U.K. He also advised Irish retailers to focus on what they do well – natural fibres sold by beautiful and charming people but agreed that Ireland is a tough place to launch from.
Above all, however, he urged us to be proud to be Irish!
