This week, we meet Cian O’Brien the artistic director of Project Arts Centre in Temple Bar in Dublin. We get an insight into his carefully selected and polished look and a top tip on an exciting project coming up this summer.
Tell us about your outfit?
The jacket is Levi’s and was €25 at the outlet in Kildare Village (spotted by a pal in a rack hidden at the back). I love it, especially with my treasured #wakingthefeminists badge.
I got my scarf from a great website called softlychosen.com. It was €35. Jeans, jumper and shirt all from my favourite Uniqlo (none of them cost more than €40). The shoes are Marni and were a gift from my very fashionable parents last Christmas. Glasses are from Specsavers and were €89.
How would you describe your personal style?
I think my style is quite preppy. I buy almost all of my clothes in Uniqlo – their jeans are just the best. I tend to spend most money on shoes.
What are you most looking forward to this summer?
I am looking forward to working with visionary choreographer Fearghus Ó Conchúir on The Casement Project – a major contemporary dance project inspired by the life of Roger Casement. Look out for the ultimate day on the beach at Banna Strand in Tralee on July 23rd. thecasementproject.ie
