Melbourne Cup fashion is one of the most important aspects of the day.  Now is the time to be planning your outfit.  Whether you are going to Melbourne for all the race days or, like me, going to a local Melbourne Cup lunch, you need to plan what you are going to wear and the accessories you are going to put with your outfit.

Of all the race days in the Spring Carnival, the Melbourne Cup fashion is the most fun so you can go all out with your choice of cloth

For the ladies:  On Melbourne Cup the look should be celebrated with race day fashion that captures the carnival atmosphere.  Bold designs and striking happy colours, with the ensemble topped by a statement hat.

For the gentlemen:  A suit with a colourful tie and pocket handkerchief.  You can go all out with your suit; it doesn’t need to be a business suit.

Have fun with your Melbourne Cup fashion choices and remember French champagne is the drink of choice no matter where you are celebrating.
