The Style Award finalists have been revealed at this year's Ladies Day.
Ladies Day returned as part of the much-anticipated Grand National Festival, taking over Aintree racecourse for three days of racing, fashion, betting and more. This year, for the first time, organisers The Jockey Club confirmed dress codes would no longer be in place at any of its 15 racecourses.
This is part of efforts to make the day more comfortable, and more accessible. Despite this, Ladies Day remained a stylish affair, with people sporting bold and beautiful dresses, suits, and more.
