Few events showcase the art of occasion dressing quite like Royal Ascot. As summer social season gets into full swing, elegant silhouettes, refined tailoring and statement accessories take centre stage. Shop our edit of race day-ready pieces designed to carry you from the winner’s enclosure to weddings, garden parties and every summer celebration in between.
This season, Ascot introduces its inaugural Royal Ascot Colour of the Year: Bright Tomato. The VIBRANT HUE takes its cue from EXPERT TREND FORECASTING, the SS26 runways and the SARTORIAL FLAIR long associated with the Royal Ascot crowd. Racegoers are encouraged to embrace the shade on Gold Cup Day, taking place on Thursday 18 June 2026.Â
Bright Tomato is a colour trend guaranteed to turn heads on race day and beyond: whether worn head-to-toe in a striking dress or sharply tailored suit, or incorporated through statement millinery and accessories. From Ascot-ready silhouettes to occasionwear separates and statement accessories, these are the pieces worth backing this season.
