All the winners from the Platinum VIP Style Awards

The Platinum VIP Style Awards took place this weekend at The Marker Hotel Dublin, and after a two-year absence, the best in Irish showbiz brought the glitz and glam, as celebs came from near and far to walk the red carpet.

The awards, now in their 19th year, saw Ireland’s most fashionable celebrities pull out all the stops with many of our nominees checking into the beauty suite earlier in the day. Stylists from Platinum were on hand for hair, Lancome was our official beauty parnter and Bellamianta plus Kerry Hanaphy also helped bring the glam!

Guests on the evening enjoyed a suitably stylish champagne reception courtesy of Moët, tasty tipples from Malfy Gin, and then delicious wine while dinner was served and the winners were announced. Afterward, everyone headed to House Dublin for the official afterparty.
