It's not just the weather that's about to get dark and stormy ... yes after a summer of the light, colourful and slightly frivolous, we're heading into a dark and moody time for fashion.
Race day fashion always has its own style, but autumn and winter racing demands good practical gear. So luckily for the hardy winter racegoer, this autumn winter plays right into the hand of girls to venture out for at day at the jumps and a flutter or two on race day.
Certainly never believe fashion is the domain of the summer months - there are so many glamorous and sexy looks for this season you may even forget it's winter!
