Off To The Races

Planning your look for dream race day style? We’ve got plenty of styles to fit the occasion - with formal day dresses and gorgeous two-piece options, you’ll be spoilt for choice this season. The races are such a key summer event in the calendar, you’ll want to choose a piece that’ll see you through race day in style. Keep on reading as we share some of our favourite Ivy Ekong Fashion picks.

White is a great, classic colour of choice. As it’s a strict no-go colour for weddings, the races are one of the formal events where white is a fabulous option. Keep things classic by matching your shoes and handbag, to contrast with your beautiful white outfit. The great thing about white is, choosing your fascinator for the event will be a breeze in such a versatile colour. We’ll be wearing white for race day with stunning dress styles like the below:

Textures like tweed are perfect for the weather this time of year, making a standout race day outfit in silhouettes like a blazer dress style. Try our new-in AMIE black tweed shift dress:

You simply can’t go wrong with a stunning maxi dress for the races. ALIAZO is a super-flattering choice, in two colourways. Make your dress the statement and go subtle with accessories, such as chic black or nude pumps and an on-point clutch.

If you’re more into tops, look no further than our new collection pieces. Dramatic bow details and puffy sleeves are perfect for race day. The mesh polka-dot pattern of our SANDRA bow blouse would look stunning with a black skirt, and the dramatic sleeves of the satin ALINA top would pair fabulously with high-waisted trousers.

Plan for any weather eventuality with a stylish cover-up. A piece like a classic jacket can add to your whole look and make as much of a statement as your dress underneath. Try layering an ADIOR blazer over your race day outfits for style that’s both practical and polished. The smart shape of this piece fits the formal occasion perfectly, whilst the button details keep the look contemporary too.
