Irish women will finally have the chance to emulate the style of their favourite reality stars as The City's Whitney Port has just launched her brand new collection in Dublin.
She showed her collection, Whitney Eve, at New York Fashion Week and now Irish fashionistas have the chance to scoop up her style.
Fans of the MTV show watched her transition from a Teen Vogue intern with fellow fashionista Lauren Conrad in The Hills, to taking on the design world in New York as a part of her own spin-off series.
But Conrad disappointed fans earlier this year when it was announced her LC -- Lauren Conrad line would not be hitting Irish shores.
However, Whitney's fashion background seems to be working in her favour as she is beginning to outshine her reality TV cohort and has extended her sales overseas.
Ali Murray, owner of Drury Street store Alila is thrilled to have scored exclusive Irish selling rights to the new range.
"I picked what I thought were the nicest pieces and would most suit the Irish customer."
