Novel helps fashion student start new chapter

A novel about the troubled adolescence of five sisters was the inspiration behind an award-winning collection by a talented young fashion student.

Éadaoin Ní Drisceoil has won a work placement with Irish designer Sharon Wauchob in Paris after being named overall winner of the Limerick School of Art and Design, LIT, Graduate Fashion Show.

The Cork native was among 27 students who showcased their collections at last night’s fashion extravaganza, held in Limerick’s Milk Market.
