Getting a wedding dress in Folkster

I went to Folkster in South William Street for my bridal appointment and Ricki was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! So attentive and lovely- suggesting dresses and styles without being overbearing. I don’t think it could’ve gone any ybetter! Walked out of there with an amazing wedding dress! I can only recommend- the shop is beautiful, the dresses are gorgeous and the staff is absolutely amazing!

Lovely Sarah

What made my experience amazing was all down to the beautiful Sarah in folkster Kilkenny. So professional and friendly, made it so comfortable for me, trying on wedding dresses and then picking out my dress. Absolutely loved working with her. She is/was so bubbly and is amazing at her job

Bridesmaid Dress Heaven!

Had our bridesmaid appointment in Ballymount with Leigh, and it was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable and patient, we loved it and successfully got 3 stunning dresses. And the best part is it's an Irish owned company and designer priced very competitively. #supportirish

Amazing Company & Service

Thanks to Simone & Ricki they were able to assist me with an urgent dress swap ahead of an important wedding and they could not have been more helpful and supportive! The turnaround was fantastic and they were such a pleasure to deal with! Will absolutely be back thanks so much!

Great Store/Great staff

Cannot say enough good things about Folkster - had an appointment in Ballymount looking for a debs dress and it was such a pleasant experience- staff were so accommodating and helpful. We bought a dress that day but another dress had caught my daughters eye at the last minute but the Ballymount store didn’t have her size. She loved the dress she bought but this other dress was on her mind. I phoned the Sth William St store a few days later to explain the situation. The girl I spoke to ordered the other dress in straight away, extended the date for returns and phoned me as soon as it came in. Nothing was an issue - the customer service across both stores was top notch! They have beautiful dresses for all occasions and are quite reasonable.

Business Details

  • Folkster is an independent, family-owned lifestyle store, founded by stylist Blanaid Hennessy in 2008. The idea behind Folkster was to create a bohemian treasure trove of a store combined with the highest standard of customer service and styling.

    We started as a small vintage store in Co. Kilkenny, growing responsibly over the years to create our own occasion wear - proudly designed here in Folkster Ireland. We now have two Folkster stores in Dundrum Town Centre, Dublin - and Patrick St. Kilkenny. We also have a Folkster Bridal store in Kilkenny too, and you can find our collections on folkster.com too!

    Our team designs the shapes, beadwork and fits in our Folkster gowns, dresses and accessories. We then hand pick our fabrics and shades, working with our trusted family-run production partners in Spain and India.

    We really listen to our customers, the design team regularly meets with our stylists and customer care team to get your feedback, which we then use to finalise our designs! See more
