WED: Monthly EVENING Meeting (Speaker: Dr. Priscilla Sonnier from RSAI)

We warmly invite you to join us at Peaches Brasserie (off St Stephens Green)  for an evening of connection, conversation, and celebration. 

Our speaker for November will be:

Dr. Priscilla Sonnier with RSAI (Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland)

‘Sartorial Sensibilities: Documenting the Social Fabric and Evolution of Irish Dress and Fashion History’

This informal talk will trace the social significance of Irish textiles from the early-eighteenth-century to the present day. With a particular focus on the formative years of the Irish textile industry during the Ascendancy period (c. 1690-1800), and how the visuality and materiality of linen, wool and silks, became interwoven with Irish ‘patriotism’, this talk will highlight how these early efforts have subsequently informed and influenced designs and designers from the Celtic Revival to Jonathan Anderson for Dior. 

Register today to ensure your spot!
