The country's most glamorous showbiz event is sure to be a night to remember
Now in its 22nd year, the ceremony is back at the swanky five-star venue after making its grand return in 2024 - but the rain isn't dampening any spirits.
The country's most glamorous showbiz event is sure to be a night to remember as Ireland's Fittest Family host and former Miss Sunday World Laura Fox is taking on hosting duties for the second year running after a stellar job last April.
She'll be handing out gongs to nine winners across the following categories: Most Stylish Woman, Most Stylish Online Influencer, Look of the Year, Most Stylish Newcomer, Most Stylish Man, Favourite Irish Designer, Favourite Irish Stylist, The Sustainable Style Award, and the highly coveted Best Dressed On the Night.

With almost 250,000 public votes counted, the competition is stiff - especially in the Most Stylish Woman ballot.
Celia Holman Lee, Jennifer Zamparelli, Doireann Garrihy, Kathryn Thomas, Lisa Jordan, Roz Purcell, Muireann O'Connell, Pippa O'Connor, Lisa McGowan, Suzanne Jackson, Vogue Williams, and Una Healy are each in the running for the evening's top award.
And last year's Best Dressed On the Night winner, Ireland AM's Katja Mia, will finally hand over her crown to one lucky attendee – but anyone could take home the prize as this year's red carpet has seen some serious contenders. Read more
It's been a celebration of style so far, with the likes of Arthur Gourounlian – who appears to be tackling the red carpet solo as husband Brian Dowling is nowhere to be seen, Louise Cooney, Rob Kenny, and Glenda Gilson stepping out in some incredible looks this evening.
Ronan Keating's son Jack, a former Love Islander turned influencer and father, is also here, hoping to beat out his fellow nominees for Most Stylish Newcomer – including social media personality Kayleigh Trappe and Kin star Yasmin Seky.
And Bláthnaid Treacy, who recently announced that she's expecting her second child with husband Charlie Moon, is proudly showing off her mini baby bump in a canary gown.
Cradling her stomach, the RTÉ star revealed that she was around 16 weeks pregnant and 'starting to feel the baby move'.
Bláthnaid, who's already mum to almost-two-year-old Nancy, told sundayworld.com that her pregnancy has been 'completely different' this time around.
'I was really unwell this time – for the first nine of ten weeks I was really nauseous but thankfully that's gone now'.
She said that Nancy has been having a hard time comprehending the new addition to the family.
'We told her, 'You're going to be a big sister,' but she has no idea! She'll be two and four months when the baby arrives, so hopefully she'll understand things by then.'
Tonight's nominees have each spent the day getting red carpet ready at the exclusive VIP Glam Suite, with title sponsor Platinum Hair Extensions returning to ensure that every attendee has a good hair day, while a glam squad from cosmetics favourite Laura Mercier was on hand to perfect their makeup looks.
Tan partner Dripping Gold and nail partner 14 Day Mani have also worked their magic, transforming the InterContinental into a sea of radiant bronze beauties with the most dazzling nails in south Dublin.
