LIMERICK icon Celia Holman Lee will feature on tonight’s Nationwide programme on RTÉ to celebrate her contribution to the fashion industry.

The show, which will focus entirely on Limerick, will celebrate local fashion with a visit to Limerick School of Art and Design as well as scenes from FashionFest 2026 which took place at Gardens International.

Plans for a Fashion Hub in Limerick’s Medieval Quarter will also be explored on the show.

Throughout the show Celia walks through the city and takes a trip down memory lane passing her home, as well as the building where she started her business with her husband Ger at the back of Coqbull, formerly a hotel, on Thomas Street.

She donned the red carpet in a black and white 1980s inspired gown with white ruffle power shoulders. The winning dress was from Phoenix V and jewellery courtesy of Azure.

Nationwide airs tonight (Monday, May 18) on RTÉ One at 7 pm.
