Does it drive you mad when stores care so much about their look on the shop floor that they don’t put all available sizes out? Me too. In which case, maybe Dublin’s Brown Thomas flagship isn’t the place to go. Or is it? The company, which is owned by the same super-rich family that controls…
The new (pre-)season has one big print story that’s a five-star gift for knitwear designers, T-shirt maker, plus anyone who fell in love with Kidult and who likes the cute and the quirky. Cat prints are having a moment and are an easy way to update tops, skirts, coats, dresses – in fact, just about anything.…
