Deirdre Brennan of County Westmeath rocked the show with her feminine, ultra-chic spring dresses. Not only did she win the audience’s heart but the judges declared her this year’s Nokia Fashion Designer of the Year! She won a €5000 prize money, along with a Nokia L’Amour handset and an internship with Topshop

First Runner-up was LSAD’s Sarah Greer from Waterford

and second runner-up was Jane Horgan from LSAD as well! Too bad there were no NCAD winners because FF loved their designs. But it was a tough competition as the judges said (which included British designer Jonathan Saunders) and hey there’s always next year!
