Molly Nadile - Aigéan Bó

From Triggle Academy  in North Carolina, USA

Molly's story behind the design: "This design has cow print on it because my nickname for the longest time has been Molly Moo. I used green and blue color variations along with flame patterns to mimic the ocean, hence the name of the dress, which translates from Gaelic to "cow ocean". This dress means a lot to me because it contains a lot of things that I love, and I think it has a very unique design because of the cow print and color combinations.

Hunter Polk - Fire and Ice

From Culkin School of Traditional Irish Dance in Virginia, USA

Hunter's story behind the design: "The fire and ice remind me of how I need to remain cool when dancing but to also dance with energy and do my best."
