20th Century Irish Fashion and Textiles
Focusing on design, identity, and innovation, Dr O'Hara will consider how makers responded to shifting markets at home and abroad, and how ideas of ‘Irishness’ were expressed through dress and material culture. Through the lens of industry and craftsmanship, the talk reveals how textiles became a powerful site of resilience, adaptation, and cultural meaning in modern Ireland.
- Booking is required for this event, and tickets are £5 per person. Please note, tickets to our Ashes to Fashion exhibition must be purchased separately.
- This talk will take place in the Lecture Theatre in Ulster Museum.
