UMM stars at The Ross and The RACES

To celebrate fashion and style at one of Ireland’s premier social race meetings - the Killarney Races - there was a post racing fashion show in the chic surroundings of the Lane Cafe Bar in The Ross Killarney on Tuesday 15th of July. The event which commenced at 9pm included a walk through Fashion Show, Complimentary Cocktail, Giveaways and Fabulous Fun.

The show was produced by Upfront Model Management and featured fashion from leading boutiques including Cork’s Kiss the Bride and All Dressed Up, NewBridge’s Makaba, top milliner Niamh Stack and leading jewellery designer Orla Murphy. The evening also revealed some stunning new creations by the much sought after Tralee designer Karyn Moriarty.

Of course, as well as the fashion on the ramp - there was also some amazing style in the audience! After much deliberation judges Eve Kelliher and Mary Murphy from the Kingdom and MC of the evening, part time broadcaster, Anne O Neill, selected Eilish Spillane from Beaufort as the winner. David Ruttle, GM of the Ross presented Eilish with dinner for two and one night’s accommodation in a luxury suite. The night was so successful that it was agreed it will now become an annual event.

Killarney’s only boutique hotel, The Ross opened in September 2006 offering a truly unique blend of warm, friendly Irish hospitality with a surprisingly dramatic backdrop! The Ross is a sister hotel to the award winning 5 star Killarney Park Hotel.
