The event is a show-stopper in itself, as Royal Ascot is full of exciting races and fun ways to come together and celebrate. On top of that, it is a place known that people go to show off their impeccable fashion, including the royal family. Over the years, the family members have followed the strict dress code perfectly while dressing to the nines. From simple, elegant looks to extravagant fashion statements, the royal family never disappoints when it comes time to show off their beautiful sense of style.

Read on to learn more about Royal Ascot and to see all of the photographs of the fabulous outfits royals like Queen Elizabeth, Duchess Camilla, Princess Anne, and others were wearing. 

The annual horse racing event has been in operation since 1711. Queen Anne even rode out from Windsor Castle and declared the area of Royal Ascot “ideal for horses to gallop at full stretch,” according to an Instagram post from the Clarence House. The first royal meeting took place there in 1768.

While plenty of people attend Royal Ascot for the horse racing, it’s hard not to redirect your focus to the unbelievable fashion moments that people are able to witness. According to Hello Magazine, Royal Ascot has a strict dress code. No outfits can be above the knee, and strapless dresses are forbidden, but people are required to wear amazing hats or fascinators. The royal family has gone above and beyond with these expectations, as their outfits are always top tier and the best example of how to dress.

Camilla and the Prince of Wales were safe and stylish as they attended Royal Ascot. The Duchess of Cornwall was the epitome of high class and elegance when she was spotted out and about for a royal outing on June 15, 2021. Camilla, alongside her husband Prince Charles, were seen looking marvelous together on the first day of Royal Ascot, the most extravagant annual horse racing event in all of England. The event was sadly canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic but resumed in 2021, leading the royal family to grace everyone with their presence and beauty, especially the Duchess of Cornwall.

The Clarence House Instagram page shared a stunning photo on June 15, 2021, of the Duchess of Cornwall and the Prince of Wales at Royal Ascot. On the first day of Royal Ascot, Camilla wore a pastel blue striped dress with a matching face mask and an over-the-top hat to match. The royal beauty was a stunner in her outfit designed by Bruce Oldfield. The cut of the chic design fit her well and matched her exuberant grace and class. She also accessorized with pearl and diamond-encrusted chokers and a white clutch. 

Camilla was accompanied by Charles, who himself looked very handsome and dashing in her gray suit and top hat, with a black face mask to complete the look. According to the Clarence House, Camilla and Charles presented jockey Kevin Manning with a trophy after he won the St. James’ Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot. 

Princess Anne also looked bold at the event, as she wore a coordinating all-purple ensemble with a floral shawl. 

Zara Tindall, the daughter of Princess Anne, is pictured here with her friend Dolly Maude. As one can see, fashion choices for the Royal Ascot are often monochromatic and range from pastel to bright, bold colors.

In this outfit, Zara Tindall opted for a more floral look, rather than just one color.

Camilla pulled out all the stops on the second day of Royal Ascot with an outfit that was the epitome of grace, class and style. The Duchess of Cornwall looked stunningly gorgeous in the photographs that captured her timeless beauty, as she wore an elegant champagne dress with a matching face mask and other accessories, including pearls, to add to the outfit’s overall look. 

All eyes were on the Duchess as she wore a champagne ensemble with exquisite pearl jewelry. The Prince and Duchess's official Twitter account posted photos with the following caption:

"On day two of Royal Ascot, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall present the trophy to jockey Ryan Moore after he won the Prince of Wales’s Stakes on Love."

The replies on the tweet were full of admiring comments from fans. One read:

"Doesn’t she look amazing? Absolutely ready to step into the role of Queen when the time comes."

This time, Anne opted for a totally different color: yellow. The ensemble definitely stood out in the crowd.

The queen, although she did not attend the Royal Ascot in 2020, looked fabulous in blue this year. Below, the queen is pictured with jockey Frankie Dettori, smiling wide at the races.
