Girls’ Night

© Eimear Lynch

Girls' Night is a documentary photobook that captures the rituals of teenage girls in Ireland as they prepare for local discos. Eimear Lynch traveled across the country, from rural community halls in County Antrim to the bustling streets of Dublin, documenting the excitement and camaraderie of these young women during this formative stage of adolescence. The book offers an intimate glimpse into bedrooms and bathrooms where friends gather to do their hair, makeup, and choose outfits, highlighting the universal yet uniquely Irish aspects of coming-of-age. Released in 2024, Girls' Night features a foreword by designer Simone Rocha and writings by Gráinne McCullough, Marley Nolan, and Lynch herself.
