From WAGs to worst-dressed, Oaks Day 2024 brought its A-game with chic outfits and cheeky mishaps!

Oaks Day 2024 has landed, and with it, a whirlwind of fabulous fashion, unexpected outings, and some seriously questionable sartorial choices! The Crown Oaks Day at Flemington Racecourse was nothing short of spectacular, as racegoers, including the likes of Elizabeth Hurley and her son Damian, flooded in. It’s a day of high stakes—not just on the racetrack but also on the fashion front as A-listers vie for an exclusive spot in the coveted 'Birdcage'. What’s a day at the races without a little glamour to go with it?

Of course, amidst the poise and stylish ensembles, there were those who missed the mark as well. In a year that promised nothing but elegance, we’re left questioning if some celebrities interpret ‘fashion’ as a desperate plea for attention. Who could forget the sheer horrors of certain outfits that may have gone down in history as one too many? Surely, there are fashion cops stationed at every corner, waving red flags against such faux pas, while others strut along in flirty outfits that exude pure confidence.

And how about the darling David ‘Gator’ Gately, who never fails to provide us with some solid Oaks Day tips? His foresight on who to watch for in the races is as sharp as their outfits, creating a blend of expertise both on the field and off. Join ranks with the merry crowd as Gator leads us through the day’s festivities, blending tradition and flair amidst the backdrop of racing excitement.

As we soaked in the atmosphere, Victoria Beckham made a splash too, gracing the event not alone, but with a very special plus-one that transitioned neatly from the runway to the racetrack. Meanwhile, Irish superstar Ronan Keating continued the celebration post-performance, proving that the fun doesn’t stop just because the races are over.

Did you know that the Crown Oaks Day has been a tradition since 1861? It’s not just about the fashion—this event also cherishes community ties and contributions! And for those keeping score of style versus style fumbles, remember: for every stunning pastel dress that turns heads, a dire faux pas could be right behind it begging for its moment on social media! Dress wisely, ladies and gentlemen!
