3 years ago
Apart from the racing, it was all anyone was talking about at Ladies Day at Aintree ā the Style Award.Ā
A huge number of racegoers entered this yearās contest, but there could only be one winner and that was Donna Mulligan.Ā
She absolutely wowed the judging panel in an incredible red full-length cape gown and matching headpiece.
The dress was from Karen Millen, bag and shoes both came from LK Bennett and a local milliner custom-made her hat to complete a stunning outfit.
The runners-up, also looking fabulous, were Natalie Koromila ā who plans to put her second place Ā£3,000 winnings towards her wedding in Santorini in September – and Josh Mac.
Donna, from Monaghan in Ireland, was presented with her award by Rosie Tapner and TV stylist Mark Heyes. She heads home from Aintree with a prize package including Ā£5,000 in cash, a Ā£500 Never Fully Dressed/Ā£300 House of Cavani voucher, a luxury UK staycation spa break withĀ Iconic Luxury Hotels, two Garden Club Tickets to Ladies Day 2023, a Randox Health packageĀ and a donation of Ā£1,000 to her chosen charity.
There were so many amazing entries for this yearās competition, not just from fabulous ladies but some very dapper looking men too, so judges ā including The Guideās own Jay and Gemma ā had a really tough job on their hands in choosing a final three and then deciding who would take first place.
Donna just stood out though and blew away everyone on the panel, including Corrieās Helen Flanagan, Emily Maloney from Never Fully Dressed and Liverpoolās own boxing champion Natasha Jonas.
Jay said: āWe have been involved with the Style Award for four years now and 2022 has definitely been the most difficult year in terms of choosing our winner because there was just so much effort and so many amazing outfits.
āTodayās winner just jumped out at us straight away. It was all about being noticeable, standing out and carrying that outfit to perfection and Donna definitely did that.ā
