What to wear…for a day at the races
So you’ve scored tickets to the prestigious Ascot races, or maybe you’re going a little easy on the strict dress code and planning a chic yet relaxed trip to Glorious Goodwood.
Wherever you may end, one thing still stands: you have to dress to kill. Well not literally, because that wouldn’t be such a positive thing if you’re either a horse, or hot-man-in-suit loving kind of girl!
But, we can help you put together a killer outfit that’ll ensure your time spent strutting on the lush green lawns surrounding the Grandstand is well worth it in sartorial terms.
Demure and super-stylish dress? Check! Fascinating fascinator? Check! Glamorous, summer-perfect sandals? Check! Hunk in finely tailored suit on arm? Optional.
Take inspiration from our raceday outfit and show the racegoers how it’s really done!

Damel Clutch, £75 £37.50, available at French Connection
