PHASE ONE
The partnership’s official fashion partner for Goodwood racecourse this year is Phase Eight, who is responsible for the race day attire. You’ll stand out (in the best way possible) with bold coral tones, statement hats, and chic accessories. this fashionable collection.
Pom Pom Boater is available for $119, and Jaslyn Floral Dress is available for $169.
LIPSY
At The Royal Enclosure at Ascot, strapless dresses, including Bardot and one-shoulders, are in fact prohibited. Other racecourses, however, allow them under a slightly stricter dress code. And you can easily tuck a chic scarf or shawl around your shoulders to avoid this.
This Lipsy dress would look amazing at a garden party or summer wedding because of its texture and dusty pink hue.
This £145, 3D Textured Bandeau Dress SHOPS THE LOOK.
HOBBS
Ascot is the perfect opportunity to play around with some bold colours, especially if that’s not usually your style. Everyone there will be dressed to the nines so you won’t feel out of place. And we love the subtly contrasting yellow floral detail on this Hobbs blue midi. Top it off with the vibrant blue hat, and you’ve got a winning look.
Elaina Fascinator and Carly Gathered Neck Dress, both priced at £79, are available at SHOP THE LOOK.
KAREN MILLEN
Horseracing is a great way to make a statement at races, especially on Ladies Day at Ascot, and Karen Millen’s Barbie pink fascinator does just that. Combine the look with a matching pink dress or opt for a bold orange or green dress in its place to keep the color coordinated.
Karen Millen, a sheep-detail fascinator, is currently costing 79.20 here.
EVER NEW
Wearing a hat is not required, and it is not for everyone. This Forever New midi dress does everything without much need, which is why we adore it. A pair of strappy heels and a neutral-colored grab bag should be worn alone.
