The British royal family is flocking to Ascot for the annual horse-racing competition.
Royal Ascot is a spectacle, not just for the racing but for the fashion display.
For the British elite, Royal Ascot is the pinnacle of the social calendar in the summer.
The annual five-day horse-racing event, which started on Tuesday this year and is wrapping up on Saturday, is nothing short of a spectacle — not just for the competition itself but for the luxurious and sometimes wild spectator fashion.
The dress code depends on the type of enclosure Royal Ascot-goers have access to, but a rule of thumb is the more exclusive the area, the more elaborate the outfits are.
Members of the royal family — who have been attending Royal Ascot since its founding in 1711 — are typically spotted in the royal enclosure, where men sport morning suits, and women accessorize elegant summer dresses with striking fascinators and hats.
Royals like Prince William, King Charles III, Queen Camilla, and Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice have been spotted dressed to the nines at Royal Ascot 2024. Here are all the outfits they wore.
