the heavy footfall around Henry Street and Grafton Street
(sorry, Ed Sheeran) and venture off course into the city’s side
streets in search of homespun delights and luxe sartorial
pieces.

Powerscourt Townhouse Centre
Anchoring South William Street, and just a short walk from
Grafton Street, the 18th-century Powerscourt Townhouse offers
shoppers an array of choice under one swish roof. Retailers housed
within the centre specialise predominantly in Irish-made goods.
Standouts include contemporary homeware store Article, which is super
for gifts, and The
Garden – a creative floral studio, flower and plant shop whose
hand-tied bouquets are wonderfully artistic.

Industry & Co
Dublin, Ireland
Shop, eat, drink and relax at independent concept store Industry
& Co. Run by sister-and-brother team Vanessa and Marcus Mac
Innes, the shop is filled with attractive design pieces curated
from a mix of local Irish designers and from sources in Europe, the
US and Japan. The in-store café hits the spot for those seeking
healthy lunches or cheeky elevenses. Wash down the freshly baked
cakes and treats (the sea salt brownies are famous) with a good cup
of artisan coffee, before taking a final lap of the shop floor.

Costume
Founded by the Tucker clan in the late-90s, Costume, positioned
on Castle Market, is considered one of Dublin’s best women’s
clothing boutiques. Scan the compact store’s tempting edit of
contemporary designers, spanning Preen by Thornton Bregazzi to
Isabel Marant, and pick out gifts for someone special (yourself
included).
