Classy Ascot Outfit Ideas for Cooler Weather

Royal Ascot can get chilly in June, so it’s worth thinking about how to keep warm as well as looking stylish.

Layer With a Tailored Jacket

Layering a blazer or coat over a midi dress will keep you warm, but still look classy. The blazer should skim over the waist of the dress and be hip length to ensure the dress is the focal point of your outfit.

Choose Fabrics That Hold Their Shape

When looking for classy Ascot outfits, consider fabrics such as wool crepe, duchess satin and even ponte. These materials will not only provide warmth on a cooler June day, but also look great and last all day long.

Wear Hosiery That Meets the Dress Code

Sheer or opaque tights add a layer of warmth, they can be worn under a dress without breaking any enclosure rules. It is best to check the Royal Ascot dress code for your enclosure.

Pick Shoes That Handle Cold Ground

Block-heeled court shoes or low kitten heels with pointed toes are a great alternative to high heels on cold and damp turf, especially on days when there may be some mud about.

Think About Hat Size as Well as Style

A structured pillbox hat or small fascinator worn forward on the head of a chignoned hairstyle is the perfect solution for a cooler, breezier day and will not catch in the wind like a wide brimmed hat would.

A little forward planning means cold weather needn’t compromise how elegant you feel on the day.
