My week with Celia Holman Lee: Farming and fashion on show

Faye Dorgan, 29 Aug

A WHIRLWIND of fun, fashion and farming saw the annual AMCS Limerick

Show go down a treat, despite some rainy weather.

What a ball we had at Limerick Racecourse on Sunday, August 25, where

over 7,000 people gathered to enjoy the atmosphere of the day.

Between stalls, music, food and drink and arts and crafts, as well as

plenty of farm animals and horticulture events, this year’s Limerick

Show went down a treat.

The rain that fell did nothing to dampen the fun and we, at the Holman

Lee Agency, hosted a fashion show in the early afternoon. We were

delighted with the turn out.

weather!

The show saw a selection of Limerick city and county designers and

shops showcase their autumn-winter collections, including designers Ber

McNamara and Caroline Mitchell, the G-Boutique in Newcastle West, Earls

and Pearls and Adare Woollens in Adare, Raspberry Red in Bruff and

Sinead’s Boutique, Annacotty.

Because it was the Limerick Show, we spread our wings to showcase the

fabulous fashion available across Limerick and outside the city.

We have been hosting a fashion event at the AMCS Limerick Show for

years now and it remains ever-popular with attendees, which I was

overjoyed to see.

Our Best Dressed Lady award went to the gorgeous Maria Stack, a

talented milliner from Ardfert in Co Kerry. Maria made her own hat

which she wore on the day - a red bycocked-style hat with a feather

detail.

Maria looked wonderful and was dressed appropriately for both the

weather and the event itself, with a light cream blouse and trousers

and navy-shoulder poncho.

Navy, red and cream colours suit so well together for the autumn.

I want to thank all who made the effort to attend on Sunday, and I

can’t wait until we host our next fashion show!
