Nineteenthirty

Luxury menswear label Nineteenthirty pops up in Belfast

Nineteenthirty is one of Belfast kept secrets – until now! The luxury menswear label is owned by Belfast designer Bronagh Griffin, who has worked for many years as a consultant designer, brand developer and trend-forecaster for national and international brands. She launched her own menswear label, www.nineteenthirty.co.uk online two years ago.

On 25th November Nineteenthirty will open its first pop-up shop, at 340 Lisburn Road for 6 weeks and bring Bronagh’s luxurious range of men’s shirts, scarves and ties and brand ethos, direct to the customer within her stylish store.

Bronagh is influenced by the spirit of the 1930’s, that very creative period that coupled tradition and modernism, hence the name of her label! Her shirts tell a story under three main themes; Speakeasy, Voyager and Roadtrip and are always a talking point for those wearing them.

Nineteenthirty, shirts, ties and scarves are ethically manufactured in Europe to the highest quality. The shirts are limited edition and are either 1/50 or 1/65 and are marked with a uniquely numbered thumbprint just like a printed work of art. Scarves and ties are also numbered and each style is produced in quantities of no more than 25. All the shirts are made using two fold cottons and the fabrics are from the finest Italian mills and fit immaculately; the silk used for scarves and ties is in its purest form.

Bronagh has said of the new venture:
“ I am so excited to be bringing the label direct to my Northern Ireland customers and getting the chance to meet customers face-to-face through the pop-up shop experience. My online customer base continues to grow in the UK and Europe, but this way, I get to raise awareness of my label at home and hopefully attract some more home-grown fans of my designs. I look forward advising customers on the perfect fit and style of Nineteenthirty shirt to suit them or a loved one for Christmas.”

Other stylish stocking fillers and treats will also be on sale in-store which Bronagh has sourced locally and abroad. The pop-up shop will stay open until 7th January and many of the shirts will be on offer at a special in-store price for a limited time e.g. those on offer in-store at £135, normally retail online at £150. So it’s is worthwhile calling in before Christmas.

Nineteenthirty will open every day from 10am. Check online for late night opening times and further information at www.nineteenthirty.co.uk
