PICTURES: Fashion fever hits Galway Races as racegoers' eye-catching style steals the show

The style stakes were high once again at this week's Galway Races as Irish racegoers turned Ballybrit into a catwalk of colour and craic.

From towering headpieces to sleek tailoring and every shade under the sun, the crowds brought their A-game to one of Ireland's most fashionable weeks of the year. Sequins, bold prints and daring fascinators were out in force, with plenty of eye-catching ensembles turning heads.

Fashion fans soaked up the sunshine and the electric atmosphere, posing for snaps with friends and showing off outfits that ranged from classic race-day chic to full-blown statement looks.

With prizes on offer for the best-dressed and a packed week of racing action ahead, the Galway Races once again proved why it's as much a social event as a sporting one.
