Royal Ascot

Racing Fashion Loves Royal Ascot

Racing Fashion Day 5, pheww, last day and I am done!

This Carnival everyday is for the fearless. Very few only attend everyday and next time I will be using different car company as we were picked up 1 1/2 hours late,long drive, very drunk people walking in front of cars and allot of shoes off and people all over the place to the sound of bagpipes.

The fashion is ladylike in the Royal Enclosure with a feel in the marquee's down the end similar to 'Melbourne Cup Carnival' with celebrations in Car Parks as well. The Royal enclosure is beautifully old school, but there are allot of peacocks strutting in circles of the parade ring and they are not the horses trying to be photographed and wearing the largest and most outlandish outfits.
I am known in Australia for my mixing and matching and big is better hats, but not always in the cases of Royal Ascot. My tastes have been demure with different perspective each day to showcase Australian Designers and up and coming Milliners and accessories.
When standing out, you must stand out for the right reasons, have your own quirky image without bringing 'Dame Edna' to the party. There are many more snaps to come and you will see some great examples, here you see the gorgeous 'Martha Lynn who dazzled us two years ago at Melbourne Cup Carnival Derby Day' looking fashion forward with fellow Irish Milliner, Jennifer Wrynn whose designs I love. My pick of the day, fashion forward, appropriate and pop, Virginia Bates, Vintage Shop Owner. Virginia, what a pleasure to speak with you and your Stephen Jones Pallet, was exceptionally pop and kitsch without having the desperation to turn to look at you. I love it and you whole outfit was splendid. xxxx
