Named after and obviously influenced by the long-running BBC series Desert Island Discs,  podcast  Desert Island Dress is hosted by Katriona Flynn, a lecturer in fashion and luxury goods at TU Dublin, and Dee Duffy, a lecturer of fashion and retail studies at the same university. 

They ask guests to choose four items of dress, clothes that have shaped their lives “that they could not bear to leave behind on the mainland”.
