She launched Twiggy, advised Jackie O, and coined some of fashion’s most eloquent proverbs such as “the bikini is the biggest thing since the atom bomb.”
A special advanced screening of the movie will be shown at the Lighthouse cinema, Sunday 9th at 4pm, as part of the Dublin Fashion Festival. The movie goes on general release on September 21st for a limited Irish release.

The selection of designers chosen to feature in a special celebration of The Year of Craft at Brown Thomas are all marked out by their innovative and design led approach across a range of categories – fashion, jewellery, accessories.
Imagination, craftsmanship, fabrics and finish combine to demonstrate a true appreciation quality and a real sense of luxury.
There are stories in the precious stones, rainbows of colour in the prints, comforting textures in the yarns that capture an exciting approach to Irish design and an international approach to lifestyle. Our old trademarks of heritage, craft and quality re emerge with style and sophistication.
