The Grand National Festival's annual Ladies Day returns this Friday with all the action on show for fashion and racing fans at home.
While the three-day festival as a whole is regarded as one of the most prestigious on the British sporting calendar, Ladies Day in itself also holds a level of prestige as one of the biggest social events of the year to take place in the North West.
Thousands descend upon Aintree racecourse on Friday with fashion the focus, and over the years there have been many elegant entries for the festival's style awards.
