Fashions on the Field in Full Gallop
The Narrandera Cup Day is not only for horse racing enthusiasts but also a chance for
fashionistas to showcase their best outfits at Fashions on the Field.
Participants can enter various categories such as Modern Lady of the Day, Modern Gentleman
of the Day, Modern Couple of the Day, Best Millinery, Tween (13-21), and Junior (0-12).
Judges will be on the lookout for the best winter outfits, focusing on rich jewel tones such as
navy, maroon, deep purple, copper, emerald green, mustard, oranges, tan, as well as classic
black, white, and grey.
Michael Bailey, Racing Manager for the Narrandera Racing Club, anticipates the fashion
competition to be just as entertaining as the races on the day.
“We’re expecting another really good fashions program this year; it will be different fashions as
it’s winter and with this year’s theme, ‘Racing With A Modern Twist’,” Mr Bailey said.
“There are a lot of categories that will be for the locals and the juniors, and the professional
fashionistas will also add a touch of class… It will be a real spectacle and many people will
enjoy it.”
McGrath Real Estate will sponsor this year& #39;s Fashions on the Field, offering a special three-night
accommodation package for the best dressed Modern Lady of the Day. The package includes a
3-night stay in a two-bedroom villa at the 4.1-star Phillip Island Ramada Resort.
Judging will occur after each race, with entrants asked to gather near the judging table before
each race concludes.
The judging sequence will begin with the Little Miss & Master (0-12), followed by the Teen &
Junior Trendsetter (13-21), and then the Best Hat or Millinery entrants.
After the fourth race, the Modern Gentleman of the Day will be judged, followed by the Modern
Couple of the Day after the fifth race. Finally, the Modern Lady of the Day will be judged, and
the winner of the accommodation package will be announced.
Entrants must register for their preferred categories at the Fashions on the Field tent on the day,
before the first race starts at 12 noon.
