What a day for Hannah Crosse from Tipperary last Saturday as she won the Boodles Most Stylish Lady in association with Powerscourt Hotel, Resort & Spa and evoke.ie.

Showing her support for Irish designers, Hannah wore a dress by Tina Griffin Designs from Killorglin, Co Kerry, and explained: “I chose the sage green coloured silk fabric and Tina came up with the design.

“I really love the fabric, fit and all the button detailing.”

She paired the look with a blush pink Ashley hat by Carol Kennelly Millinery and her shoes and bag were LK Bennett.

ELEGANCE

Hannah’s inspiration was based on traditional race day elegance: “Personally I like simple, classic looks and that is why I chose Tina Griffin Designs. She even designed my bridesmaid dresses for my wedding.”

Judges Sybil Mulcahy, Evoke.ie, and Kate Harrington appreciated Hannah’s look and she won the prize from Boodles & Powerscourt Hotel & Spa, worth in excess of €10 000.

A nice touch was that Hannah had become engaged at Powerscourt Hotel, Resort & Spa four years ago: “I was very lucky to have got engaged at Powerscourt Hotel, Resort & Spa. It is a fabulous hotel and I am really looking forward to be going back with my husband Charles for the full VIP treatment.”

The two runners up, Ann-Marie Corbett from Mitchelstown and Liz Maher from Carlow, received a luxury overnight stay for two in Powerscourt Hotel, Resort & Spa and fabulous goody bags from both Boodles and evoke.ie.
