Stunning fashion for the Race Days!

The summer social calendar is positively bursting with race day events.  If you are lucky enough to be a ticket holder for any of the races across the UK, not only will you be experiencing the excitement of the racing, you will also be experiencing some of the most exciting, theatrical fashion events of the year!  It’s not only the dresses which will grab the attention, but also the dazzling array of ostentatious hats and fascinators!  At these events, ladies are given the perfect excuse to indulge themselves and dress up in the most flamboyant, glamorous dresses and accessories, it’s the time where you are able to take a real fashion risk!  However, we know that choosing your outfit for the races can be daunting and tricky.  Fortunately, our experienced team of in-house stylists are well versed in dressing ladies for their race events and know what outfit will suit your shape and flatter your best assets.  We will also keep in mind your personality and will help you find a dress that you not only look great in, but also feel comfortable in.

This style with a jacket (left) is always a popular style for the races.  This dress with it’s sparkly detail looks breathtaking teamed up with one of our large fascinators and will give you that air of elegance and chic.

If you are more comfortable with a plainer dress that is no less elegant, what about going for one of our flattering and comfortable Waspie Corset dresses (right)?  These dresses cinch in the waist to give a wonderful shape, and you can go completely over the top with flamboyant, sparkly accessories.   For more information about this dress please click here.

A hat or a fascinator will be your crowning glory, this is your chance to wear something totally outrageous to set off your outfit. These events are the perfect chance for you to get away with something completely over the top, so indulge yourself and have fun.  We have such a wide range of hats and fascinators at the boutique you really will be spoilt for choice!  To view our range of fascinators and hats please click here.

Make sure you go for some drop-dead gorgeous shoes – we have many different styles of shoes at the boutique (and so many in sale at the moment!) and have a wide choice of different heel heights and heel thicknesses.  We have high stilettos for ladies that can elegantly totter along on skyscraper heels, and lower or thicker heels for ladies who are not so confident in this area.  We know that having to wiggle your stilettos out of the grass at the races is not a good look, so best to be safe and team up your shoes with some of our stiletto stoppers to ensure that you don’t get that sinking feeling!

Be mindful not to leave your accessories as an afterthought – our glittering bangles and bags have been a huge hit this summer with our customers and celebrities alike, and there’s no reason why these shouldn’t be a fashion statement at the races also!

One last point which I must make is that all this does not have to cost the earth.  Many of our dresses and fascinators are available to hire as well as buy, so if you are working to a budget, do consider this an option as you can get that fabulous designer look for a fraction of the cost!
