Race Day Fashion

Angela Stone • Nov 06, 2014

We cannot shut up about the Fashion we witnessed at the Melbourne Cup the other day so this blog is all about Style Inspiration for you and your clients for the upcoming races!

Rules for Race Day Fashion: There are no rules!

Have fun, wear colour, be bold and enjoy! This is the one day when wearing a bird on your head will be admired and not gawked at!

While wearing black and white is sophisticated, modern and chic, we think colour is where it’s at for the Races! Help them be bold with their choice but make sure it is a colour that they will wear again. So many people spend hundreds of dollars on an outfit for one day, and as a Stylist, we have to advise against this. We are all for investments, but make sure it is one that won’t hang in the closet for years to come.

A common theme we are seeing lately at events is ladylike looks. This look is on point and is very feminine and easy to wear again. Aim for showing off your clients best asset and make sure it is comfortable as it will be a long day. There are a lot of structured pieces in stores now that can create shape and give a defined waist.

What better way to finish this post than with the winner of Melbourne Cup Fashion in the Field 2014? Christine Spielmann wore a Nadia Foti Bespoke design, millenery by Joanna Roberts and black patent leather pumps by Jerome C Roseaw. We can see why she won!

Until next week fashionistas xx

May Newsletter 2023

May Newsletter 2023 Hi friends! Is your winter wardrobe in check? One thing people often forget to pay attention to is accessories, but this is such a fun way of dressing for the colder weather. These are the Winter Accessory Trends you should be aware of: Big scarves are in – and I mean big! Wrap it around your neck a bunch of times, or wear it like a shawl for a chic look. You’ll be cosier than ever! If you already have an oversized handbag, you’re in luck – this trend will be everywhere this winter. I love a coloured bag for a statement, and since red is hot right now, a large red bag is going to look extra chic. Own a pair of heeled boots? Time to bring those babies out. This season a stiletto heel is favoured over a chunky heel, but both are strong options and will keep your feet cozy. Love fashion and want to learn more? Join me on my next Fashion Stylist Course . It’s a fun, 2-day event with like-minded women that will renew your confidence in yourself and teach you the fashion fundamentals. Secure your spot here .
