Women’s Dresses Made for Ladies Day

Women’s dresses – the possibilities are endless

Now that Spring it finally here, it means that race season is upon us! We’ve all got our tickets to the Grand National which means we need to find our special women’s dresses perfect for ladies day.

When it comes to ladies day, your lovely women’s dresses have to be spot on.  Don’t forget to do your research before the big day – check the dress code.  Some venues can be casual, but the majority are high end glamour (just the way we like it!)

We’ve taken a look at our dresses for the races online shop and browsed our gorgeous selection of women’s dresses, and believe me when we say we have hundreds to choose from! It’s certainly been a hard job! But we know how important looking good at the races can be. That’s what we’ve selected our top two women’s dresses that we feel are perfect for ladies day.

The shift dress – winning the style stakes

This is certainly one of our favourite women’s dresses.  With so many exciting prints, patterns and colours to choose from there’s bound to be a shift dress for everyone of you lucky ladies.  The shift dress is a classic style which flatters any shape and size and is perfect for the long day ahead.

When we found this Together Shift Dress we felt it’d be perfect to embrace ladies day at the races. In a gorgeous lemon colour, it would suit any skin tone & will definitely win the style stakes!  As the English weather is very unpredictable, we’d suggest you wear this shift dress with the Together Trim Jacket. A feminine, formal look that’s bound to create a winning look!

Place your bets on a must have maxi dress

The maxi dress is the perfect choice for the ladies who want the “wow” factor.  Women’s dresses are full of staple summer fashion, but in our opinion, nothing beats the maxi dress. Again, like the shift dress there are so many colours, patterns and prints that’ll you’ll be spoilt for choice.

We say the brighter the better and fill your maxi dress with gorgeous prints, you’ll be bang on trend and your maxi dress will do all the talking!

That’s why we fell in love with this WOW print maxi dress. Offering high impact glamour destined to dazzle,   we’re hoping it’s sunny on our ladies day! A maxi dress like this requires minimum accessories and as it’s floor skimming you can even get away with wearing sandals (comfortable for the long day of betting ahead!)

Your maxi dress doesn’t have to be all out bright. Wear a plain maxi dress & liven it up with bright accessories. That way you’ve still got gorgeous colour and will be destined to be a hit for your special day.

Just remember, don’t let your maxi dress swap you. You can add a few intricate details for a refined, polished look that is designed to come in first place.

Women’s dresses and your finishing touches

You’ve all picked your women’s dresses perfect for your special day, now you need to add the finishing touches to sparkle during the day.  Depending on the type of women’s dress you’ve gone for, your accessories should compliment it perfectly. If you’ve donned a bright number, then keep your accessories simple.  If you prefer your women’s dresses to be simple, then let your accessories do the talking!

Ladies day tends to signify hats or fascinators just make sure they match your shift dress or maxi dress. They should balance out and complete the outfit, not overpower it.  Your women’s dress should always be picked first, before the hat!  When picking out the hat we say be brave and go big.

Women’s dresses are designed for style but when it comes to footwear comfort is needed, after all you’ve got a long day ahead! Make sure you go for footwear that you’ve already worn (nothing worse than uncomfortable, painful shoes) and are weather appropriate.  In our opinion, go for a low heel (or sandals if the weather’s nice!) These gladiator sandals are ideal comfortable glamour.  Just remember – high heels and grass doesn’t match!
