Best Dressed at Punchestown: Start getting ready now!

Whilst the team at Punchestown prepare the track, fences, bars, restaurants and enclosures, stylish ladies around the country will be getting ready for the 2018 Bollinger Best Dressed Lady Comeptition.

Style is a key element of the festival bringing with it colour, elegance and sophistication.

Many Bollinger Best Dressed Competition entrants tend to start making plans months out from the event to make sure they get their hands on the right outfit at the right price.

As readers will know, Punchestown offered an opportunity to one lucky individual to become a judge and official style correspondent for the 2018 Bollinger Best Dressed Competition.

The top ten style influencers have been selected and this list will be whittled down to four finalists from who the public will vote an overall winner.

Among the top ten is Newbridge native Sarah McDermott who will be hoping to make it through to the final four which will be announced on Friday 30th April.

In with a chance to win this amazing opportunity to launch their digital career are:
