On Tuesday, November 7, we snapped 45 contenders in their race day best at Sapphire Coast Turf Club and opened the voting up to you to select your favourite look.
While her colourful combo ruled her out of the fashions on the field competition on the day - the award is traditionally reserved for monochrome outfits - Jayne Henry of Bemboka has been crowned the best dressed guest by our readers.
Ms Henry can celebrate her win with a $100 dinner voucher for Waves restaurant in Merimbula.
Second place in the People’s Choice Award was Grace Proctor of Pambula in her delicate white lace dress.
Ms Proctor will be feeling even more fabulous after a $50 discount on a colour treatment at Trendsetter Hair Studio in Tura Beach.
A special mention goes to Rebecca Russell of Kalaru, whose elegant look came in at a very tight third place, and Carmen Thompson, whose structured yet soft ensemble drew in a big share of the votes.
To revisit all the day’s fashions, flick through our online fashions on the field gallery.
