The first ever IMAGE Boutique Awards winner’s lunch took place in The Dylan Hotel on Friday and it was, in every aspect, a spectacular fashion fair

Ireland’s fashion set gathered at the lavish five-star Dylan Hotel in Dublin last Friday to celebrate the award winners in the first ever IMAGE Boutique Awards. Winners and guests were treated to a three-course champagne lunch in The Tavern restaurant where they were honoured during each course with a beautiful trophy to display in their boutique’s.  Afterwards, guests were invited to join IMAGE editors in the outdoor terrace area to enjoy a Belvedere cocktail and live jazz.

As well as celebrating our winners (listed below if you need a reminder!), there was also a spot prize of  a €100 voucher for The South William Spa, as well as best-dressed guest, which was awarded to Havana Boutique owner Nikki Creedon who wore a stunning Simone Rocha tulle dress and accompanying shoes and hair accessories. Nikki was awarded an afternoon in Powerscourt Spa, which was recently voted Best Luxury Spa in Northern Europe. Finally, there was a prize for the best Tweet or Instagram post of an overnight stay in one of 60 Original Irish Hotels.
