Celia Holman-Lee

Model, fashion stylist and TV presenter, Celia Holman Lee is a true fashion icon.
Her adventures in style started when she was 15 and Celia was stopped on the street and invited to model in her native Limerick. In her 20s, the tenacious businesswoman opened a boutique. Next came the Holman Lee Agency, now Ireland’s longest-established modelling agency which works with brands, boutiques, media and commercial organisations all over Ireland.
Over the course of the last 60 years, the straight-talking Celia has set trends and influenced style-conscious women across the country. She 'walked' the runway for all the top Irish designers, from Ib Jorgensen and Peter O'Brien to Paul Costelloe, Richard Lewis, Vonnie Reynolds and John McNamara. Her impeccable style has earned her 'household name' status thanks to regular appearances on television, including judging the Late Late Show fashion awards for Gay Byrne and regular slots on Ireland AM.
Celia has won numerous style awards over the years and recently published her book Glamour & Grit. The stunning coffee table book is a 235 page look back at her 60 years in the industry, her story of youth and life, and a glimpse through six decades of amazing fashion shoots, industry figures, and an abundance of style tips that she has shared with her followers throughout her career.
