The search for Her Best Dressed begins!

Ballybrit is buzzing as Thursday of race week kicks off and the stunning fashion is a sight to behold. The sun is shining, the glad rags are on and Galway is most certainly the place to be as racegoers celebrate 150 years of the summer festival. Our judges, broadcaster Síle Seoige, author and nutritionist Rosanna Davison and Her's Gillian Fitzpatrick have landed and are currently scouting the best looks alongside a team of roving style reporters.

Of course, in addition to Her Best Dressed, we're also on the lookout for Best Hat and the headpieces are nothing short of amazing.
