For Twins Rocco And Jay, An Outfit Costing E16.90 - 30 May 2007
For twins Rocco and Jay, an outfit costing e16.90 SHE has stunning good looks, a pop star husband and her father is leader of the country.
So when Georgina Ahern dressed her newly-born twins to meet the media at the weekend, she could have been forgiven for splashing out.
Ralph Lauren, perhaps, or even Prada's expensive range.
But close inspection of the stunning pictures that filled Ireland's papers reveal Georgina to be a lady of modest taste.
In fact the twins' outfits cost less than E35.
Georgina and her Westlife singer husband Nicky Byrne kitted out Rocco and Jay in Belgian label Premaman for their first photo shoot, with grandfather Bertie.
Donning matching white beanies, baby blue trousers and matching tops with adorable puppy cut-outs on the front the outfits were a hit with onlookers.
And the ensemble only set the couple back E16.90 for each outfit, which they purchased from Premaman's Malahide store. A company spokesman yesterday confirmed that Nicky and Georgina were regular customers. But those hoping to get their hands on the cute outfits were warned to act quickly.
'Only a limited number of that particular item is still available as Premaman does not mass produce to avoid market saturation,' he said.
The fashion label, which features maternity wear, toys and pushchairs, is more than 50 years old. Its popularity in Ireland is shown by the fact that the company has opened new stores in Drogheda, Limerick, Cork and Mullingar in the past six weeks.
Rocco and Jay Byrne were born six weeks premature by Caesarean section on April 20.
They were only released from Holles Street Hospital's intensive care unit in the past two weeks.
Despite the recent birth, Georgina Ahern looks to be in fabulous shape.
However, a spokesman for the couple said yesterday that the qualified fitness instructor had not been back to the gym just yet. 'She practically hasn't left the house and before that her exercise was going to the hospital and back.
'But she's just naturally slim. I mean, she looked great when she came out of hospital just five days later.' Aside from possessing that celebrity knack of bouncing back into shape, it seems that the couple are facing the same challenges encountered by all new parents.
'They're in great form.
Obviously anybody who has twins knows it is full on,' the couple's spokesman said yesterday.
'They're not getting much sleep at the moment, but obviously they have great parental support.
'And it's something they've always wanted.'
