Project51 is a Design-Hub for Dublin city with Irish Fashion, Jewellery, Millinery and Accessories. Project51 of
fers designers the opportunity to showcase and sell their work directly to the public. Monthly events including capsule collections, international exhibitions as well as creative cross-discipline collaborations. The consumer can support the Irish Fashion Industry by
buying directly from the designers and appointments can be made to sit with the designer/makers in the design studios above the boutique.
