This is a little treasure trove in the heart of Dublin. It is the gorgeous Bow Boutique in the Powerscourt centre and it houses the talents of four of Ireland's most interesting designers; Eilis Boyle, Matthew Doody, Margaret O'Rourke and Wendy Crawford. Between them they design stunning jewellery, dresses and knitwear as well as stocking other lovely bits and bobs from other designers.
The store itself is a breath of fresh air in Irish retail. It's dreamy and conceptual...you can feel the creativity when you walk through the doors. It's the kind of special place that has been born of the pure love of what they do and the sheer hope in their shared vision.
I love the interior features with gorgeous lavender plants, an olive tree and feature frames with quirky inserts. The window display is always great and draws me in every time! I could happily spend a long time there just soaking it up.
The beauty is in the detail...
Love these frames, especially the old penguin book cover!
Bow Boutique is a subtle delight in a world of massive, shiny, loud, high street chains, I hope their concept continues as respite for the weary shopper looking for some real retail therapy.
