Here we go again! On Friday, April 24th at The Marker Hotel, Dublin, the Peter Mark VIP Style Awards 2020 will once more take place.
It’s the 19th year in a row we’ve held the awards, so, readers, you should know the drill by now! Pick your most stylish entry from each of the categories, and place your votes.
Last year, Lucy Nagle walked away with the title of Favourite Irish Designer and this year’s category promises to be as closely (and stylishly) fought as ever.
