Fashions on the Field - Champion Fillies' Day
Fashions on the Field on Champion Fillies’ Day – Saturday 14 November 2026
Perth Racing’s Fashions on the Field celebrates individual style, creativity and confidence through a contemporary expression of racewear.
Inspired by Western Australia’s climate, lifestyle and creative spirit, the competition welcomes entrants of all backgrounds and personal styles.
We welcome bold interpretations, emerging trends and unique personalities. There is no single definition of racewear in WA—from classic elegance to contemporary expression, we celebrate looks that are thoughtfully curated, seasonal, confident and appropriate for a day at the races.
Pre-register below and receive complimentary General Admission entry to Champion Fillies’ Day.
Style and Originality
We celebrate individuality—whether classic and refined, understated, fashion-forward or unexpected. Entrants are encouraged to express their personality through considered outfit choices while presenting a polished and original interpretation of racewear.
Interpretation of Racewear
Outfits should be appropriate for a daytime race-day event. Perth Racing welcomes contemporary racewear alongside traditional silhouettes, provided the overall look is polished, cohesive, seasonal and suitable for the occasion and setting.
Millinery and Headwear
In keeping with racing tradition, headwear is required. This may include hats, fascinators, sculptural headpieces, floral designs and contemporary millinery interpretations. Headwear should complement and enhance the overall look.
Attention to Detail
Does the outfit work as a complete look? Accessories, shoes, jewellery, bags and grooming all contribute to the overall impression. A well-executed head-to-toe look should feel intentional, cohesive and harmonious.
Grooming and Deportment
Hair, makeup and overall presentation should complement the outfit. Confidence, presence and the way an entrant presents their look will contribute to the judges’ overall impression.
