All The IFTA Gunas... It was a rather busy weekend for all of us ShowBiz media types what with the IFTAs going down over at the impressive Conference Centre Dublin. More celebs than you could shake a big stick at, sadly stick shaking was banned this year, what with the recession and all. We were there, as were all the lovely ladies in their sparkly dresses... Lorraine Keane The IFTAs. What a night folks... Literally millions of ShowBizzy females wearing literally billions of ShowBizzy dresses. So many in fact, we couldn't even judge who dressed it right and who dressed it wrong... It was like a blizzard of silky sparkly gunas. Saoirse Ronan So, rather than go into the whole who-wore-what palaver, we'll just leave it over to our eagled-eyed and forked-tongued commentators... So. Who got it right and who got it wrong folks?

Fergus O'Toole – B.A.C. February 22, 2011 - 09:53 Guy's is it just me or does that white backround make some of the exquisitely glamorous and gorgeous girls arms look very fat??? bintu February 19, 2011 - 20:52 looks like a tranny Quiche Lorraine – The Caff February 19, 2011 - 18:47 Lorraine's career has thrived since she left Xposé. Gerd von Rundstedt – Stalingrad February 18, 2011 - 16:30 I can't believe that "Operation Transformation" won best "Factual Programme" in the IFTAs. What a joke. Michelle – Galway February 18, 2011 - 12:18 Amy Huberman oozes class, she always looks fabulous at these ceremonies.I love Kathryn Thomas's dress aswell and red really suits Emma O Driscoll.I fon't know what Caroline Morahan was thinking when she wore that dress and Grainne should have gone for a longer length dress. liz – Dublin February 17, 2011 - 23:41 I actually think Lorraine's dress is lovely. Does anyone know where she got it? If someone wore this to the Oscars the critics would say it was gorgeous. I Love it. iris – Dublin February 17, 2011 - 23:22 Aisling O Loughlin, Lottie Ryan, Elaine Crowley and Amy Hubberman look lovely. The rest DO NOT! Especially Lorraine Keane. Seriously the worst dress i have ever seen, Wouldn't be out of place at Big Fat Gypsy Wedding programme. C-Lo – Dooblin February 17, 2011 - 23:06 Favourites are Amy Huberman, Kathryn Thomas, Saoirse, Charlene McKenna and Caroline Morahan. I love Kim Cattrall but her body looks a little..... manly in that outfit? The tv3 girls haven't put on a great show, but I think Karen Koster and Anna Daly look gorgeous. ed February 17, 2011 - 21:36 saoirse ronan got it so right. that is all Liz February 17, 2011 - 17:25 Anna Daly- stunning, gorgeous dress, always classy and elegantly dressed, never gets it wrong Karen koster looks a trainwreck, never dresses for her shape. That dress makes her look short, frumpy and heavy. Lisa cannon looks like a quality street wrapper, those tv3 women havent a clue. Elaine Crowley looks fabulous. Lottie ryan, pretty dress. Charlene Mckenna is the stand out star of all these woman, she has the most beautiful face I have seen in along time. Like a modern day Audrey Hepburn. isy February 17, 2011 - 16:35 Amy Huberman looks the best by miles Ramen Klien – no location February 17, 2011 - 13:36 I do not wish to upset anyone, but I must agree with the comments left by gatsby. S.Ronan and J.Richardson both have access to stylists - so will naturally have a very international, versitile look, but the local girls look horrific. There is absolutely no taste evident. Why don't these girls have stylists as part of their management packages? I am not too familiar with Irish terrestrial television, but I am reliably informed that some of these girls are involved with a fashion review show!!!??? unbelievable! In most other countries such people are heralded as stylish idols - not as stylishly idle.... Ramen Klien Realist February 17, 2011 - 13:36 shurrup Model A1, get back to plucking your fanny fot the tabloids. Eduard Hempel – Dún Laoghaire February 17, 2011 - 12:55 The IFTAs - More a case of "Who's That?" than "Who's Who" PerfectlyImperfect February 17, 2011 - 11:50 What is exactly is Laura Whitmore trying to achieve with that look? EB February 17, 2011 - 10:06 What is Lorraine Keane wearing? It looks like some prom dress from the 80's. Also Lucy Kennedy looks like she just cut up a bit of material and try it around her neck. My favourites are Amy's and Saoirse's dresses, they look great. Model A1 – Dublin February 17, 2011 - 10:03 did aisling o locked wear that for a BET? lottie whatsherface has a SERIOUS case of manface. huberman COULD you gloat any MORE? who knew elaine newsreader had a rack? i might just go this nonsense next year just to wake that redcarpet UP. Gary – London February 17, 2011 - 09:17 How in the name of God did all of the tv3 girls get it so wrong?! Lisa Cannon's dress is an abomination and normally she looks great! Big winners are definitely Emma O'Driscoll, Saoirse Ronan, Charlene McKenna and Kathryn Thomas. They look elegant and not overdone. I do not even know where to BEGIN with Maura Derrane. It looks like she stained her sheets with fake tan and then fashioned a dress out of it. Whitmore has clearly decided to recycle a bridesmaid's dress. There's a reason more people don't do that... gatsby – omnipresent February 17, 2011 - 04:14 Apart from Saoirse Ronan, Amy Huberman, and Joely Richardson, all of these other women should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for what they chose to wear...and the sad thing is that most of these women work in fashion. It's no wonder that Irish fashion as a whole and what Irish women perceive as fashionable are an absolute disgrace in this country!
