WHAT A special night we had celebrating in astonishing style at the rooftop launch party for Ireland Fashion Week!
After decades in the fashion industry, witnessing this moment - the launch of our nation's first official fashion week - was truly momentous.
I felt an overwhelming sense of pride and anticipation as Asta Lee and I descended on the Anantara The Marker Dublin, a luxurious spot that oozes grandeur.
It was the perfect backdrop to celebrate this great milestone for the Irish fashion industry.

There was a buzz in the air you'd love to bottle, with designers, models, and fashion enthusiasts gathering to toast the future.
Our very own Limerick ladies, Aoife McNamara and Louise Cantillon made appearances, with Aoife giving a sneak peek of some of her magnificent latest designs.
Ireland Fashion Week, scheduled for October 6 to 10, promises to showcase the diversity of Irish fashion talent.
With seven shows and five events planned, it's set to be a spectacular affair.
As a model agent, I've always championed emerging talent.
Seeing young designers and models at the launch, brimming with excitement, reaffirmed my belief in the future of Irish fashion.
Founder Ashley McDonnell’s vision to create a nationwide platform is commendable.
This has been a long-time project for Ashley, who has been shining a spotlight on Irish talent for years now through both her podcast, Tech Powered Luxury, and international events.
October can’t come soon enough!
