Front Square Fashion: Megan Russell

 

We spotted Senior Freshman student Megan Russell bustling through Front Arch en route to purchase Spar’s cheapest naggin. She wears a jumper from Zara, a €2 corset sourced from an undisclosed charity shop, trousers from Siopaella and platform shoes from Enable Ireland. As well as endorsing the thrills of thrifting, her outfit champions that tricky transition between the evening lecture and Workmans with remarkable ease. The secret to her success lies in the sartorial balance of academia and The Sesh. It doesn’t surprise us that Megan is a student of Sociology and Social Policy, as this outfit has clearly been considered through a lens of her learned sociological imagination. Her defaced corset tightening around a quintessentially masculine jumper serves as an unmistakable subversion of Patriarchal values. However, it’s not all second wave feminism for this Senior Freshman. Megan’s deliberate use of red, as seen in her corset and echoed in her geometric eye make-up, reveals her unquenchable thirst for Red Rums. All the while, Megan has created an undulating silhouette that fascinates and delights, whether she’s sitting in the Ed Burke or queuing outside 10 Wellington Quay.
