Longford Entrepreneur Wows on the Red Carpet at Special Screening of Downton Abbey Movie

Longford entrepreneur, Elisha Stokes, wowed on the red carpet when she attended the special preview screening of 'Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale' in Dublin. 

The invite-only screening, which was held at the famously beautiful Stella Cinema, had a dress code of 1930's cocktail, in-keeping with the theme of the movie. 

For the screening premiere, the former Longford Life Magazine cover star wore a timeless cream silk dress which she picked up from the Savida range in Longford's Dunnes Stores. To give her dress that extra Downton Abbey flair of cocktail elegance, Elisha then styled it with a faux fur stole from Folkster, nude heels from Zara, and an evening bag from Mango. 

Speaking to the Longford Leader about the movie premiere, Elisha said, "The event was absolutely stunning from start to finish. Between the venue - the Stella Theatre - the 1930's cocktail dress code, and the actual movie itself, it was like we had hopped into a time machine! I am very grateful to Universal Pictures for inviting us to attend."

The Granard makeup artist and owner of Elisha's Beauty Salon, is not only a busy model, she's also tipped to be one of Ireland's next big influencers, with a list of rapidly growing followers on her Instagram page. 

Last year, Elisha - daughter of Tommy and Lena Stokes and former pupil of Granard's Cnoc Mhuire - was voted by the public as 'Makeup Influencer of the Year' at the 2024 Irish Makeup Awards, thus firmly securing her spot on the list of Ireland's rising social media stars. 

'Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale' is now showing at the Omniplex Cinema in Longford.
