We’re delighted to be hosting our annual Cork on a Fork fashion brunch on Sunday, 16 August. This is so much more than a fashion show with a delicious brunch – it’s a celebration of style, exceptional food and wonderful company. Join us for an inspiring morning as part of the Cork on a Fork festival, voted Europe’s No. 1 Summer Food Festival by the influential travel website Big 7 Travel.

Helen Murphy, Daily Diva Diary,  will be chatting with our Opera Lane Personal Shopper and Stylist, Breeda O’Connell and with Bakestone proprieter Joe Carey.

Drawing on her years of experience as a personal shopper, stylist and colour analyst, Breeda will offer practical wardrobe tips and smart shopping advice to help guests make the most of the clothes they already own, while investing in timeless pieces they’ll enjoy wearing for years to come.
