Experience the Tradition of Royal Ascot

Royal Ascot is steeped in tradition, dating back to 1711 when Queen Anne founded the event. Known for its formal dress code, this is an occasion where fashion takes centre stage. The Royal Enclosure, the most exclusive area, requires formal attire, including a dress of modest length and a hat with a solid base measuring at least 4 inches in diameter. Meanwhile, the Queen Anne Enclosure offers a slightly more relaxed yet equally refined atmosphere, encouraging chic and stylish choices.

A well-chosen hat is not just a requirement but a statement of personal style. At Nerida Fraiman, we help our clients embody the elegance demanded by these esteemed enclosures.
