Dublin Extends a FÁILTE to Norway’s Top Models!
High profile TV fashion show announced in aid of Baby Max Wings Of Love Fund
Darina Ní Chuinneagáin & Declan Donnelly, Founders/ Directors of the Baby Max Wings Of Love Fund are organising this high profile TV fashion show and event with Designer Jennifer Rothwell to take place at the Guinness Storehouse on Friday, 16th July, 2010.
This event will be filmed for a Dublin-based episode of Norway’s Top Model TV show. The programme, which will air on Norwegian TV, follows the same format as America’s Next Top Model. The Norwegian models will take part in a closed fashion catwalk task that day with surprise New York Celebrity Stylist and Jennifer Rothwell Judging. The winner of this will take to the catwalk that night with some of Ireland’s top models at the charity fashion show, amongst them Sarah Morrissey, Sarah Mc Govern, Ruth Griffin, Caoilinn Taylor, Yomiko Chen, Chloe Arnold, Martha Christie, Karen Fitzpatrick, Angelina Salamao, Lais Passos and Claire Keegan. All ten Norwegian models will also be present.
Stylist Cathy O’ Connor, Hairstylist Dylan Bradshaw, Make-up Artist Anne Morrissey (International Make-up Academy) and some of Ireland’s top designers have already come on board. These include Paul Costello, Jennifer Rothwell, Orla Kiely, Mary Grant, Chesneau Luxury Bags, Fitzpatrick’s Shoes and Rebeka Kahn Artwear! Lisa Fitzpatrick will MC the evening with Máire Ní Chuinneagáin and Anne Morgan co ordinating all on the night. Entertainment from Paddy Casey, Ciaran Nagle & Tara Novak’s ‘ISHNA’ amongst others.
This is a very exciting event and a marvellous achievement for both Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland, as the filming of this episode will showcase both Dublin city, a vibrant modern city, the Guinness Storehouse and the Irish fashion scene to a Norwegian audience. Tourism Ireland pitched for this opportunity against several other European cities, and Fáilte Ireland designed the itinerary for filming of the Dublin episode of Norway’s Top Model.
Guests at the event will not only get to see an amazing fashion show, but they will be in with a chance to win key designers pieces, and will receive a ‘Céad Míle Fáilte’ on arrival with complimentary food, drinks and high profile entertainment. Great spot prizes have been kindly donated from Richard Lewis, Orla Kiely, Jennifer Rothwell, Eileen Shields, John Rocha, Lainey Keogh, The Fitzwilliam Hotel and many more! Jennifer Maguire has kindly donated the Best Dressed Prize with a €1000 voucher for Bella Makeover. Goody bags for all in attendance!
And it’s all for a good cause. All proceeds will go to the Baby Max Wings of Love Fund, founded and directed by Declan Donnelly and Darina Ní Chuinneagáin following the tragic death of their son Max.
Commenting on the event, Darina said “We are absolutely delighted to be working on this high profile event and for Baby Max Wings Of Love Fund to be the beneficiary.The proceeds will go towards purchasing all types of vital medical equipment for the Dublin Children’s Hospitals and Paediatric Units nationwide.
To date as a result of donations, thousands of children’s lives have been helped and saved. Currently €200,000 worth of Cardiology Equipment in process in Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin to be celebrated on the evening.
We hope the filming of Norway’s Top Model at this event will draw a large audience and result in raising much more needed funds”.
