Derby Day fashions 2014 - Black, white and celebs all over.

 

Horses? What horses?

We all know that Spring Racing Carnival is really about the fashion.

The week has kicked off in style at Flemington Racecourse in Melbourne with Derby Day on yesterday. The weather had started out a little grim with wind and rain greeting racegoers, but that didn’t stop Australia’s finest from looking, well, fine.

It’s not that everyone had awkwardly bought an outfit in the same colour: Derby Day has a strict black-and-white dress code.

Which celebrities stuck to the dress code? Which celebrities cheated with colour? Who is breaking the rules to show a little bit of contraband naked tummy? Who looks they saved their cash for punting by making their own fascinator with office supplies?

Flick through this gallery and pick your winner.
