Ascot 2024 Day 1: Gloucesters and Kents

The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester attended the first day of Royal Ascot, the duke in a grey felt top hat. The Duchess repeated a blue straw bandeau with bow and feather spray.

Previously Worn:

Lady Gabriella Kingston wore a pink hat with sisal flared crown and rolled-edge twist trim and what looks like a pinokpok brim.

The slightly shorter brim on this design suits Gabriella so well, as does the lovely colour. The slight textural contrast between the two materials elevates the hat, as does its pairing with her lovely floral dress. It’s wonderful to see her looking so well.

  1. Lovely to see Ella out today, she looks impeccable as always! I think DoGlo looks great in this bandeau type of hat and the color is lovely on her as well

  2. Gabriella looked her usual elegant self, and it was wonderful to see her in the heart of the family, clearly very loved and supported.

  3. Both hats are very enjoyable. Normally not a bandeau fan, I really like Birgitte’s. Gabriella looks fantastic – I love the color and overall shape, but perhaps a wee bit too big?
