The sun shone brightly over the Curragh for the Guineas festival and more importantly for the Alfa Romeo Ladies Day recently. The girls were out in all their finery and the all male judging panel, the Alfa Males, had a difficult decision in selecting the finalists.
Among the Alfa Males were magician Keith Barry, TV presenter Baz Ashmawy and Niall Breslin from The Blizzards, who all sought advice from fellow guests over lunch in the VIP suite. As the Bollinger champagne flowed all afternoon fashion tips and horse tips were swapped with glee, with some guests luckier than others.
Among those guests welcomed by Aidrian Walsh from Alfa Romeo were Virginia Macari (sporting a striking headpiece), Karen Koster, Aidan Power, Jacques Malone, designer Dawn Fitzgerald, Marcus Sweeney and Leigh Arnold.
Best dressed on the day however went to Margaret Connolly from Mullingar who received a range of prizes including the use of a sporty Alfa Romeo MiTo for a year.
