This is particularly true of the Grand National festival’s Ladies Day where attendees dress up in their best fashion and big prizes are awarded to the best dressed race-goers.

The Grand National has fashion ambassadors who will be on the lookout for the racegoers they deem the best dressed and are then given the Style Award. This coveted award comes in the form of a big car prize as a reward.

As much as the Style Award is given to the racegoer deemed to be the best dressed a look at previous winner’s shows that the prize tends to go to those with a unique look of their own. As such while there is a myriad of choices available from many of the high street fashion retailers, history shows that it also pay to wear something different from the rest of the crowd. This is where having something custom tailored can help you catch the attention of the festivals’ fashion Ambassadors.
