Pics: TDs and Senators strut their stuff on the catwalk

Grotesque, unbelievable, bizarre, and unprecedented.

TDS AND SENATORS took to the (makeshift) catwalk at the Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin last night in aid of a number of charities with frocks, caps, and, er, umbrellas all getting an outing.

The fashion show was organised by Arts Minister Jimmy Deenihan and held in aid of a number of charities Motor Neurone Association of Ireland, Action Prostate Cancer and Brother Kevin’s Capuchin Day Centre.

Tickets were €60 but it was all in aid of a good cause and sure who wouldn’t want to see these ‘great’ outfits:
