Melbourne Cup Fashions on the Field

The daily final of the Melbourne Cup Day round of Fashions on the Field was won by Sarah Kelly. In a refined, grey Cue number with black feathered hat, Sarah looked as if she could have just stepped out of an illustrated page of a vintage issue of Vogue.
First runner up was Teresa Love in [...]

Derby Day Fashions on the Field

Fashions on the Field at Derby Day this year showed that black and white are never boring. Although the long parade of entrants was punctuated by the occasional splash of coloured ensembles, or highlighting colour accents, the classic black and white dominated the day.

Spring Carnival Scents with Peony Melbourne

Hat? Check. Racebook? Check. Shoes that won’t sink in the lawns? Check. For many, a chosen fragrance for a big event is an afterthought, the cherry on top of the ice-cream sundae that is sometimes forgotten in the rush to get ready for the races. For others, like Peony Melbourne founder Jill Timms, [...]

Moonee  Valley Racing Club certainly turned it on for the 2009 Fashions on the Field.  The centre enclosure was awash with colour, bright blooms and lush grass, shady umbrellas and plenty of glamourous racegoers of all ages made for a fantastic day at the races.
The fashion stakes are a little bit different on Cox [...]

Rebecca Thompson’s Gorgeous Frocks Galore

Designer  Rebecca Thompson showcased her current range at Who Fish boutique in South Yarra last week. The Spanish influenced collection relies heavily on hot colours and embroidered, crocheted and cut-out embellishments. The pieces are a little folksy while also maintaining an exotic feel. Cobalt blues and sunny yellows remind me of sweltering European summers. Key [...]

High Fashion Stakes at the Caulfield Cup

The  Age’s fashion editor Janice Breen Burns noted that trackside there were “as many goosebumps as hats” at this year’s Caulfield Cup Day.

Gorgeous Frocks Galore

In this era of trash fashion and cheap thrills there is still something to be said for dressing like a lady. And “ladylike” is exactly the word that springs to mind when I see Rebecca Thompson’s designs. Far from being staid and prissy these creations are chic and feminine – perfect for a little [...]
