Other Divisions

Classic Lady
An emphasis on classic racing style! Your outfit should be complementary to itself, and emphasise a traditional racewear silhouette while showcasing your style and originality. Millinery is essential.

Contemporary Lady
All about being on trend! Your outfit should combine the latest trends with a classy yet unique approach to racewear. Complete your look with some fabulous headwear.

Lovely Local Lady
Competitors in Classic and Contemporary divisions from the South Burnett Regional Council area are also eligible for the local award. The judges will select the winner from the combination of both classes, so be sure to let the organisers know if you're a lovely local lady!

Junior
It's the kids time to shine! Under 18s can express their own unique style. The suits and dresses might be in miniature but the fashion is just as impressive as the adults.
Juniors will be broken up into categories (e.g. boys/girls/under 12/over 12) if there are enough entrants.

Millinery
Its all about the headwear. Headwear should be stylish, unique and well made, and complement the wearer's outfit.

Prizes for Other Divisions

Prizes will be awarded to the Winner and Runner Up of each division.
