The third day of the Royal Ascot is the one in which the link between fashion and horse racing it is also recognized in the horse racing event program. Looking at the long roundup of fully dressed up ladies with a nice hat on their heads despite the heatwave biting even in Berkshire, one soon understands why Thursday is called Ladies Day.

Sophie of Wessex confirms the true pillar of the family not having missed even an afternoon of racing so far. A point of reference also for those who love to contemplate its infinite variations of real fashion: afterwards the dress with the light pink drapery and that of blue sangallo, it was the turn of silk floral dress painted like a watercolor. Behind these three creations lies (but not too much) the luxury tailoring Suzannah London founded in 2006 by the British designer Suzannah Crabbtrue style ally of the Countess of Wessex.

Elegant with a contemporary twist, the former riding champion left everyone breathless thanks to the outfit chosen for the most fashionable day of Royal Ascot.
The white dress is a bespoke creation of Laura Green, one of the hottest stylists of the moment. To make everything more fun were the fuchsia buttons to match her husband Mike’s tie. Fuchsia, however, was also the rose that climbed on the green straw worn on the twenty-three of Justine Bradley-Hill and the décolleté of Karen Millen. The result is a balanced and at the same time irresistible combination of elements precisely because of that amalgam of small hazards skilfully mixed together.

Taking a look at the outfits of the Ladies present, you notice the influence of Kate and Sophie. A racegoeras the frequenters of the horse races are called, she presented herself with the dress of Alessandra Rich with whom Kate came home after the Caribbean tour thinking about Diana (if it’s not he is a great replica).

Kirstin Sinclair / Getty ImagesThere is no shortage of polka dots, buttons on the front and mint color, other recurring elements of the wardrobe of the Duchess of Cambridge. That you like the style of the Countess of Wessexon the other hand, it can be seen both in the choice of a brand like the one already mentioned Suzannah London and in the shapes of certain dresses with puff sleeves, a narrow waist and a slightly fluffy skirt. More underground because less shouted, the “Sophie effect“.
