Pop Icons launched at BT2 on Wednesday and it’s what fashion dreams are made of.
Eclectic Kenzo sweatshirts, DVF wrap dresses, Isabel Marant sneakers and the most delicious leather jacket ever made, courtesy of Acne Studios… to be honest, we could move into this pop-up shop and live there happily after.
However, we’re not that greedy and this achingly cool style extravaganza deserves to be shared with everyone.
Anyone following our Twitter account probably knows we were in store for Wednesday’s launch event, as we sent many the excited tweet over the course of the day.
There were three lucky winners of the fabulous BT2 giveaways: Liz Holohan won a pair of Adidas runners, Siobhan Dower a Marc by Marc Jacobs t-shirt and Tara Fahkry a pair of Victoria Beckham jeans.

The launch itself was buzzing with tunes spinning and a caricature artist, not to mention delicious nibbles in the form of mini hamburgers and fun cake pops.
Some of Ireland’s most successful models, including Roz Purcell, were in BT2 showcasing some of the brands including a sports luxe inspired Marc Jacobs shorts suit, Opening Ceremony metallic coat and Kenzo prints.
