1. Mary Robinson’s perm
And the Presidential Purple inauguration coat. Yes Mary, stand out from all those black suits!
2. Jean Byrne’s leather dresses
Jean makes the weather forecast an EVENT, every time.
3. The Morbegs’ waistcoats
There’s something so elegant about these, with the detailing reminiscent of Celtic art – it almost makes you forget fact that Molly and Rossa are essentially oversized talking dogs.
4. Anne Doyle’s pearls
The ideal accessory for her immaculate suits and pristine bob. The original Irish style icon.
5. Everything going on in this photo
But especially Stephen Gately’s open shirt, Shane Lynch’s dungarees, and Keith Duffy’s braces. Pirate chic!
7. Bosco’s matching hair and blush
So daring. Not to mention Bosco has been championing the androgynous look for years now.
8. The B*Witched double denim era
Inspirational to so many girls of the 2000s. And with the way fashion is going, the dark wash double denim trend is due to come back around.
9. Jedward’s quiffs
The original mile-high ones. Majestic.
10. Michael Flatley’s billowing sleeves
OK, he’s not Irish himself, but we’re claiming the sleeves. And the dance moves.
11. Dougal’s Ireland jersey
He has to wear his clerical clothing all day, so he expresses himself through his pyjamas. It’s a beautiful thing.
12. Bertie’s canary yellow trousers
A statement. Maybe not one he intended to make… but a statement nonetheless.
13. The King Nidge runners
Probably the first time Nike Air Max have been used as a recurring motif on Irish television?
14. Six’s all-white theme
Like a Daz advert. So crisp! So pure!
15. And Pat Kenny’s jam jars
Could he have known back then that trendy young upstarts were going to be stealing his look in 2017? He couldn’t have.
