On Wednesday morning, BT2 held a fashion show for the press in its Grafton Street shop to celebrate its first birthday. The rain outside made all those cropped trousers and teeny shoestring dresses seem as if they had been designed by folk with eternally optimistic weather genes.
Among the labels shown were Prada Sport, Dolce & Gabbana Jeans, DKNY Jeans, Ted Baker, Diesel's StyleLab, CK Jeans, Polo Sport, and John Rocha Jeans. Some of the more unusual ensembles were white sportswear which looked very similar to hospital attire. One such model had also appeared to have a large surgical bandage on her arm, so if you see the youth of Ireland wearing the contents of the medicine cabinet on their person this summer, you'll know it's only the latest fashion.
