Model and food blogger Rozanna Purcell was one of our best dressed of the night in a black velvet plunging neckline dress with a daring side slit. To compliment the vampy guna she went for a dramatic makeup look with lots of black eyeliner and a matte nude lip. We're getting Angelina Jolie vibes from her leggy pose too.


TwoTuber's Stephen Byrne and Blathnaid Treacy scrubbed up well, with Byrne choosing a slick all-black suit and brogues, while Treacy channeled some serious boho vibes with an embellished headband and shimmering maxi dress.

Model Rosanna Davison was a lady in red in an off-the-shoulder gown with front slits, finished off with aplomb with a cape.

RTÉ weather presenter Jean Byrne, famed for her daring fashion sense, provided a welcome pop of colour at the ceremony in a teal figure-hugging gown, which featured cut outs at the shoulder. Just gorgeous.

Model Teodora Sutra was equally eye-catching in a bright pink jumpsuit from designer Umit Kutluk. The stunning design featured an off-the-shoulder silhouette and draping at the arms.

TV presenter Maia Dunphy also favoured the on-trend off-the-shoulder look, this time in chic black. A shimmering belt cinched in her waist, and she accessorised simply with drop earrings.

Louise McSharry looked radiant in a white chiffon dress with floral detailing along the neckline and hemline. A dramatic gold shell shaped clutch bag and simple gold earrings finished off the look perfectly.

Model Madeline Mulqueen was a vision in an aubergine satin gown with racerback neckline and a voluminous skirt. A deep berry lip was the perfect final touch.

Actress Aoibhín Garrihy looked typically stylish in a blue draped gown, emphasising her waist with a silver belt and wearing her hair slicked back. 

Love/Hate star Aoibhinn McGinnity channeled some serious 70s vibes in a slick plunging neckline jumpsuit with feather pattern, but it was her incredibly curled and voluminous hair which took centre stage for us. Too cool!

Bonnie Ryan stunned in a black midi dress with sheer detailing at the bodice and an asymmetrical hemline, paired with strappy heeled sandals.
