Ascot has set the most beautiful scene for racing that has continued for hundredhundreds of years. In the Royal Enclosure, ladies must wear a hat of 4 inces in diameter and fascinators are not permitted.Midriffs must not be on show, nor shoulders in strapless dresses.
What colour for Ascot? Red is a bold statement colour, why not colour clash with hot pink! Black and navy are classic. At the Hattery we have all the colours of the rainbow to choose from - and matching bags!
I am proud to include in my elite collection such masterpieces that are truly aspirational for Ascot and any other race meeting you may be attending. Ascot etiquette dictates that ladies must wear a hat or headpiece with a solid base of 4" in the Royal Enclosure. Fascinators are not permitted, novelty hats are not allowed and formal daywear is de rigueur. Halter necks, strapless dresses, one-shoulder garments are not acceptable.
Began hundreds of years ago....Edward VI famously described Ascot as 'a garden party with racing tacked on.' The Thursday of the race meeting known as Ladies' Day at Ascot was first described so in 1823, when an anonymous poet said that 'the women, like angels, look sweetly divine.' In 1825, George IV began the tradition of Royal carriage processions up the course, making Royal Ascot into one of the most important events in the social season. In this era of dressing down, race meetings and particularly Ladies' Day are fabulous excuse for us all to dress up!
