Danielle Gingell has been crowned the winner of this year’s Galway Races Virtual Best Dressed competition.

Wearing a dress by Self-Portrait, a bag by ASOS, a breathtaking hat by Arturo Rios and shoes by Zara, Danielle absolutely stole the show (and the judges hearts) with this monochrome homage to Old Hollywood.

Speaking to us right after her victory ,Danielle said she was thrilled with the win and that it had made her year;

“I’m actually recovering from a leg injury and just waiting on ACL surgery so I can not tell you how much this has lifted my spirits!”

Also winning big today was Melissa Carty, who picked up the prize for Best Hat.

Wearing an incredible headpiece from Caithriona King, Melissa paired the look with a dress from Harper a bag from ASOS and shoes and jewellery from Penneys!
