The Spring Racing Carnival is almost upon us and this year we’re giving you enough time to plan your racing day attire from head to heel well in advance.
So if we are forecasting our race day fashion off what we saw at Royal Ascot earlier in the year we will be seeing a lot of white and cream – so perhaps stick to the vodka sodas and stay away from the colourful canapés.
Also we can expect some bold prints and patterns as well as delicate detailing with a dash of lace and leather are mixed in too.
But of course with races comes the headwear and this year the ladies at Ascot brought the drama with pieces that challenged gravity and brought new meaning to the term ‘fascinator’.
