Here's who will be judging the McElligotts Kia Best Dressed Lady At Listowel Races
Duffy, who presents The Louise Duffy Show on RTÉ Radio One and is also a prominent voice in fashion and beauty, will be joined on the judging panel by rising Irish designer Shauna Courtney. Originally from Killarney and now based in London, Courtney has earned a reputation as one of Ireland's fashion stars to watch. Her luxury label, Shauna Courtney London, has appeared in a British Vogue Designer Profile, been worn on a BAFTA red carpet, and debuted at London Fashion Week.
Thanks to title sponsors McElligotts Tralee, and co-sponsors Kia Ireland, this year's Best Dressed Lady winner will jet off to New York City for a dream trip for two, including a stay at the iconic Fitzpatrick Hotel in Manhattan.
This marks the 11th year of McElligotts' sponsorship of the prestigious event, which continues to attract fashion lovers and racegoers from across the country.
Declan O'Hara, Managing Director of McElligotts Tralee, said:
'We are delighted to be the official sponsor of Ladies Day again this year, and with the introduction of so many stunning new KIA models there was never a more opportune time to showcase our range to the many discerning guests that know more than a thing or two about style and fashion. We are looking forward to a great day of racing and fashion in Listowel.'
In addition to the top prize, there are generous cash awards of €1,000 for the Most Creative Headpiece and €500 for the Most Contemporary Outfit, ensuring even more style moments are celebrated.
Ronan Flood, Managing Director of Kia Ireland, added:
'McElligotts Tralee have a long association with Ladies Day in Listowel and Kia Ireland is delighted to join them in supporting this special day in the Kerry social calendar.'
