The best hats at Royal Ascot 2019
Its day one of Royal Ascot and while, of course, the horseracing is important, the fashion is just as big a deal.
The dress code is strict – for those in the Royal Enclosure, dresses must fall just above the knee or longer and straps must be at least one inch wide.
For men, its a black or grey morning suit with a waistcoat and tie.
But both men and women are expected to wear a hat. Other enclosures arent quite as formal but headpieces are still expected for ladies.
Some people go for an understated headpiece but others go all out.
This year, flowers, feathers and nods to the horses on the track were all big themes.
There were also some amazing pieces like a bee perched on top of racegoer Ella Reeses head and Jodie Kidd, who wore a hat made out of lots of smaller hats.
