WATCH: The stunning and stylish Best Dressed revealed at Day 3 of the Punchestown Festival

Day three of the Punchestown Festival did not disappoint today, offering patrons another gorgeous day filled with exhilarating racing, superb style and an unrivalled atmosphere.

The crowds continued to flock back to the Kildare venue in their droves today, with attendance figures up year on year for the third day in succession.

The Bollinger Garden buzzed with excitement as the competition unfolded and Fashion MC Marietta Doran took to the stage.

Kildare woman Maria Osbourne was deemed the Bollinger Best Dressed at Punchestown today, wearing a mellow yellow two piece Aoife McNamara suit that she recently purchased at the Kildare Village Easter pop up shop.

Her hat a Marc Millinery rental from Hats Amore in Newbridge was teamed with an old Zara bag she had at home, Chanel sunglasses borrowed from her sister and preloved Jimmy Choos that she purchased on Vinted.

Maria was thrilled with her win, commenting her husband had affectionately teased her earlier in the day saying she was like “a grey mare dressed as a Spring chick”. Maria was a guest at a table in the Punchestown Pavilion and due to a major work deadline, she wasn’t even sure she’d make it to the races today!
