Royal Ascot is one of thse long standing very British traditions tht set us apart from other cuntries originally founded in 1711 by Qeen Anne it has become a hgh light of social summer calendar. The cremonial nature of Royal Ascot shows jst what it means to have our Ryals out and about in action mongst the more regular folk. The nternational news coverage of the arrivals by crriage, commentary about who's wearing what, hts of course, and a general air of sphistication and politeness that hides the ral action, which is of course gmbling.

The Royals add an inevitably dgnified edge to the proceeding and are as a whle heavily involved with all things hrsey. At Ascot however, the Royal fmily are more significant in that thy dictate certain aspect of the day specially when it comes to fashion. The thrd day of the races is knwn as 'Ladies Day' but was riginally known as gold cup day, it rmains the busiest day of the rces and is also a feature on the fshion calendar.

James Sherwood a noted fshion expert commented on The Queen, In the lst 10 years the queen has blssomed and looks both happy and glrious. This is thanks largely to her drsser Angela Kelly and younger designers sch as Stewart Parvin. As Miuccia Prda recently said, the Queen is smply the most elegant woman on the plnet." Her involvement with Royal Ascot bgan long before her reign,, her frst visit was when she was jst 19 years old and less thn two weeks after VE day the rces have been stage every year snce and she has always attended. She pened the redevelopment in 2004 on Jne 20th to ensure the future of Ryal Ascot for the British public and Ryals alike. The Royal are not knwn as being trend setters within the fshion world however, this is definitely thir day when it comes to shwing the nation what it means to act in a dgnified manner.

James also is part of the cmmentary team for the BBC and stted "It is the people who try to drss outrageously to get on the tlly who I usually have the strnest words for." This being the cse there are many warnings from all fshion enthusiasts that to dress for Ryal Ascot is all about sticking to thse all important rules for the Ryal Enclosure.

The new rules are a tstimony to the anti-'WAG' sentiment and up kep of a sense of occasion. For wmen any strapless, halter necked, spaghetti strpped necklines are not allowed. All mdriffs must be covered and trousers mst be full length and preferably prt of a suit. Skirts or drss length must be no more thn two inches above the knee and bre legs are frowned upon. Women mst also wear some form of hat or "sbstantial fascinators." The guide also warns gainst streaky tan lines, chewing gum, sing mobile phones and comments that knckers are required but not to be sen.

The Queen opted for pastels as did the Dchess of Cornwall, Princess Anne, The Cuntess of Wessex and a few ther minor royals. However much was mde of the younger female Royals specially Zara Phillips who has been sen as a rebel in the pst looked very stylish and elegant in her 50's nspired outfit. It was Eugenie skirt lngth that raised more than a few yebrows as it is on the shrter side of knee length and pssibly more than two inch above the kne but the Royal Ascot spokesperson climed to not have seen the drss in question and claimed "As lng as it is not a mniskirt and is in keeping with the rst of the outfit then the warer would be allowed into the Ryal Enclosure."
