It’s Ladies’ Day! While it rained at Ascot Racecourse today, the spirits of hat-wearing Royal Ascot spectators at home is not dampened and I anticipate lots of lovely looks for us to admire today!
Jump over to the #styledathome ascot hat auction fundraiser – below are some of the milliners who have contributed hats for this campaign, along with founding members of the British Hat Guild, all wearing their own creations. What Ascot hats at home stood out to you today?
Photos from social media as indicated
Has anyone heard of a milliner named Rebecca Gray? I can’t find anything about her and this is the only hat on her instagram. Maybe she’s new? If this is her style it is really interesting!
No Trish, this milliner is not familiar to me. It seems she’s new on the scene!
How to dress for Ascot with Rachel Trevor Morgan and Stuart Parvin
I think these two outfits are very elegant
So elegant! The dress is a bit too bridal for me but the suit and feathered hat are gorgeous!
I really like this scalloped hat with the lace dress. Same color but not matchy matchy!
Here are two ingeniously creative hats, one pulled (literally) from the garden and the other…
It took me a few seconds to figure out what hat crown is made of! Thanks for the giggle Hat Queen and for making Ascot this year so much fun. I miss the royal hats but I’m really enjoying seeing all these beautiful outfits!
Paper, too!
I just saw this incredible hat and pink lace dress and now I have 2 favourite outfits today!

That’s a beauty, indeed!
SOOOOOO good! I usually hate pink and yellow together but this is fab!
Very interesting shape on this NDLQ blue straw hat with rainbow dyed pheasant feathers
My very favourite outfit today is this one. I love everything about it. Sheer perfection!
This is great fun! So many great outfits and gorgeous hats!
This is so chic!
Floral dress + pink boater = top Ascot look
I love her dress! Not so much the hat but after the video yesterday I’m now noticing all the outfits where the hat and shoes are matched in the same color. I never noticed that before!
Love the dress. Love the hat. Ditch the shoes
I also had to share this one. I like the hat much better than the suit!!
It’s a beautiful hat but I will pass on the suit!! Too much going on!
This blue lace dress with saucer hat is charming
All the flowery ruffled Ascot hats are fun to look at but I would never wear one. This one is so different from what we normally see and but so beautiful.
Ruffles, flowers and bows certainly don’t suit everyone, Sara. This is a beautiful alternative from Emily London to the trims we usually see.
This hat is so sweet
I finally figured out how to go find all these hats and outfits on Instagram and I just wasted almost 2 hours looking at hats! I’m not going to get anything done for the rest of the week ha ha! I found this hat. I don’t like these percher styles most of the time but this on is beautiful on this lady. Do we know who she is?
It looks like she is a British milliner named Susan Widlake and that she made this hat. I’ve not seen her work before- thanks for making the connection, Joanne!
Wow, red sure is her color! I wish the bottom of the hat was a little flatter but it looks great on her.
LOVE.
I love both of these pink hats with the white dress

Here’s another statement hat made and worn by British milliner Eda Rose
Super cute!
There have been some amazing hats today! I love this blue saucer with pearls with the Chanel style suit
Rainbow couture Mary Poppins!
I wear mostly black and beige but these make me wish I wore more color!
Both great looks but the top black beret percher with interlooped burnt rainbow feathers is wonderful!
I’m not usually a jumpsuit fan but this is fantastic! Jumpsuit is Lisou London but I don’t know who made the hat (looks like Jess Collett to me)
I have no words. THIS. IS. AH. MAZING.
That saucer is so pretty! I love the leaves on top.
Her entire look is wonderful! She looks so chic.
This dress is the perfect floral and with the hat it’s sublime
Holy cow. That dress is so great. THere are SOOOOO many FAB looks here today! I’m in heaven!!!!
Wonderful rainbow pinwheel by German milliner Nicki Marquardt
I love the yellow
I just saw this design- hats with sunflowers often look like 1990s craft projects but this one, by London-based Dilara Latrous Millinery, is lovely.
Very fun red straw button percher with black statement bow from Atelier Milliner
This is very sweet

For Ladies Day you expect over the top hats and this one is worn with confidence!
YES!!! 1 million YESES!!!
Guilia Mio looks great in her oversize vertical disc with feathers. I’m a sucker for classic black and white and I love the wide black stripe around the brim.
Another fab hat on Ginny Chadwick Healey
Unexpected but very chic pairing of red dress with blush pink hat and shoes!
The sleeves on that dress are amazing!! I agree, the red dress with blush accessories is beautiful!
Here is a fantastic look on close friend of Royal Hats, Dutch milliner Wies Mauduit! I included a closeup of the incredible detail and impeccable finishing. It’s terrific with her red jumpsuit and pink purse!
There are so many great hats today but Weis gets my vote! This outfit is gorgeous! I thought jumpsuits and hats were just for 20-somethings and this is flattering and stylish not to mention looking very comfortable!
This grey hat with red trim is a very unique color combo we don’t see very often
Wies, you look amazing!
I also want to commend you on your latest brilliant creation that you showed on Instagram today – “Le Toboggan.” I have a feeling Hat Queen will show it on her weekly round up this weekend. It’s so chic!
You know me so well!
Fabulous!
Elegant mother and daughter outfits. The green dress and hat is especially lovely.
Another very good green

Thanks for this wonderful parade of green, EM!
The mint green dress and hat are very pretty. I would never think to wear that color.
Another from @cotswoldhatclub:
Oh my goodness, that is perfection!
Elegante.
Francesca Cumani
The netting is so beautiful:
Very stylish couple This kilt is incredible, although he needs a top hat!!
Not only did she coordinate her hat with the kilt (what a beautifully vibrant kilt!) she also coordinated her yellow shoes with the pot of marigolds. I love it!
Rosie Tapner
How cute is this??!! LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
So cute! Her gloves are so unique.
Nazer Bullen
2 super hats and outfits.
Cutest couple?
They have competition…
She matched her hat, her shoes AND her umbrella! Adorable!!
Super cute!
Lisa Tan made her hat AND her dress.
These throw back and current shots are awesome!
That is hilarious! Trust Rachel Trevor Morgan to create a hat works as effortlessly with a swimsuit as it does with a designer dress. Although, I think I prefer it with the dress! The neckline is beautiful.
So fierce!
WOW! Just wow! She is gorgeous! I’m disappointed she couldn’t wear this at Ascot this year as she is fabulous!
Amazing find Janae! Certainly one of my very favourite Ascot looks!
Mine too! She has been killing it all week!
LOVE.
