Leitrim native and Fabiani employee Nomi Brennan has won the trip of a lifetime by claiming the much sought after Best Dressed award at the Punchestown Racing Festival.

The 32-year-old walked away with the Kildare venue's top fashion mantle after emerging as the judges' top pick during Wednesday's Longford GAA Race Day.

And just as she had done some 48 hours beforehand, Nomi wore a stunning Kim's Vargas satin pink dress from the high end Longford boutique while also wearing a headpiece by Wendy Louise Designs.
