32 year old Nomi Brennan from Leitrim, who works at award winning Longford fashion boutique Fabiani, won the Bollinger Best Dressed Competition at Punchestown today (Wednesday, April 26).
Nomi, who was on a Fabiani staff day out to Punchestown, wowed the Bollinger Style Council in a stunning pink dress by Colombian designer Kika Vargas.
Last November, Fabiani was named Fashion & Footwear Store of the Year award winner at the AIBMS Retail Excellence Ireland Awards 2022, and boutique owner Louise Brennan was also among today's Bollinger Best Dressed finalists, making it a memorable day for the renowned Longford retailer.
Originally from Mongolia, Nomi's headpiece was by Longford milliner Wendy Louise Designs.
Her jacket was a cream wool cashmere mix by Anine Bing, her shoes were by Dutch brand Wanderer and the YSL bad was borrowed from her mum.
The Style Council Representative, Sinead Keary of Sinead Keary The Label commented, “Nomi wore a standout modern look that was both elegant and sophisticated.”
Her fellow members of The Style Council today included Stylist Jess Colivet, Fashion Designer and Personal Shopper Sinead Keary, Louis Copeland’s Creative Director David O’Connor and Former Winner of the Bollinger Best Dressed, Longford's Kate Nally McCormack.
Nomi is fast tracked into the final of the competition on Friday along with Michael Walsh yesterday’s Best Dressed winner also.
The overall winner on Friday will receive a ‘money can’t buy’ trip of a lifetime for two to the home of Bollinger.
The amazing prize includes flights to Paris, five star hotel, Michelin star dining, a private chauffeur, and an exclusive Champagne Bollinger experience including private tour of the cellars, vineyards, gardens, house and overnight stay in the beautiful capital of the champagne region Reims. Plus one year’s supply of Bollinger.
In appreciation of their efforts in the style stakes today, finalists Fiona Mulleady, Zack Moradi, Louise Brennan, Eider Leite all received a Bollinger Goodie Bag complete with AYU Cosmetics, Dylan Oakes gold drop earrings, a Sinead Keary The Label hair bow and lots of Bollinger goodies including a bottle of delicious champagne.
