The Autumn Racing Season is upon us and we wanted to get a list down for you to help with picking the right race day dress for each event. Have a read and let us know if you think we picked well otherwise just get renting because that;s the best way to experiment and discover some new styles.
The Sydney Autumn Carnival is always a highlight on the racing calendar, with the Golden Slipper and The Championships being two of the biggest days. You can be sure that fashion on the field will be competitive. So to help you get that winning dress we’ve picked some of our favs for each event.
The Golden Slipper
We recommend the eye-catching Ministry of Style Garden Midi Dress. This dress is sure to turn heads with its bold prints and elegant silhouette. Otherwise if you’re looking for something with a bit more drama (a distraction from all the races)?
Check out the striking Flower Garden Cotton Linen Dress by Leo Lin with its exaggerated puff sleeves, intricate detailing and colourful patterning. It's the perfect dress to make a statement.
The Championships
You can't go wrong with the stunning Ginger & Smart Souvenir Gown. This dress features a flattering draped design and a dramatic floor-length hem. Make sure you’re friends are bringing you the drinks and food. It’s not fun walking around too much with a gown!
Alternatively, the Maticevski Attentive Ruffle Dress. It’s a one-of-a-kind dress with a flattering fit-and-flare silhouette. This would be a standout option for this event. Wearing something a little ‘racey’ (Pun intended) is what’s in at the moment! You’ll feel amazing.
All Aged Stakes
For the All Aged Stakes in Sydney, we recommend the elegant and sophisticated Thurley Enchanted Mini Dress. Its classic silhouette and intricate lace detailing make it the perfect choice for a day at the races.
Alternatively, go crazy and pick something colourful (Big colours are in). The stunning Rebecca Vallance Tirana Dress with its bold print and figure-hugging silhouette would be a standout option for this event.
The Doncaster Mile
The Doncaster Mile in Sydney, we recommend the striking Frenchy Cut Out Midi by Rebecca Vallance. It’s a vibrant pink cut out number with a beautiful bow on the back. It’s very french and you will have you turning heads all day long.
Something just as playful (if not more) is the elegant and feminine Darling Mini Dress by Justin Tong with its playful ruffle detailing. We guarantee you no one else will be wearing this unique stand out style.
Moving on to Melbourne, the Autumn Racing Carnival is headlined by the Australian Cup and the Newmarket Handicap.
The Australian Cup
For the Australian Cup, we love the sophisticated By Johnny Fluer Tie Black Midi Dress. It features a playful floral print and a figure-hugging silhouette.
Another great option for this event is the Acler Harper Dress, with its classic silhouette and unique bow design will make you feel highly elegant. Both dresses are guaranteed to have you turning heads on the day.
