The Star Stradbroke Season 2023

Fashions On The Field

Presented by:

Duke-Realty-Logo - POSITIVE

Brisbane Racing Club will present a fresh take on the ever-popular Fashions on the Field competition during this year’s The Star Stradbroke Season.

A re-energized Fashions on the Field series will be consolidated to three days - Ladbrokes Derby Day, Channel 7 Oaks Day and The Star Stradbroke Day only - with three prizes awarded each day. The total prize pool for The Star Stradbroke Season fashions on the field is valued at $40,000. On Channel 7 Oaks Day, the addition of a Designer Award category will see an extra accolade awarded to a maker or designer entrant.

Led by a new team headed by Brisbane Fashion Month director and Queensland fashion advocate Laura Churchill, this Stradbroke Season, Fashions on the Field celebrates self-expression and creativity through fashion. This fun, inclusive spectacle of creativity will take place on a new, larger stage and is the perfect way to celebrate the energy of winter racing season.

THE STAR STRADBROKE SEASON STYLE GUIDE

Fashion Theme & Criteria  

Ladbrokes Derby Day

Embrace bold black and white on Ladbrokes Derby Day, with texture and detail coming in to play through your choice of fabric, silhouette and accessories.

A chic and elegant monochromatic look head to toe with creative use of textures and patterns will help you make your mark on stage.

 

Channel 7 Oaks Day

Soft colour, florals and sophisticated glamour lead the way on Channel 7 Oaks Day. The Channel 7 Oaks Day dress code provides the opportunity for colourful combinations and experimentation with pattern and playful flair.

Lean into traditional pastel tones, lace, feathers and anything tending toward the opulent and glamorous.

In an exciting new addition this season, one entrant will be awarded the Emerging Designer Award. To enter this category, entrants must have either made their own outfit and millinery or collaborated with an Emerging Designer to create their look. Emerging Designers are defined as students, recent graduates, or new practitioners operating a business of less than five employees.                                               


The Star Stradbroke Day

The Star Stradbroke Season’s pinnacle Fashions on the Field competition day calls for black and white with a touch of Stradbroke red.

Play with the possibilities within this traditional theme as you accent your monochromatic look with a signature accessory or outfit detail in striking red hues. 

Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third (gender neutral) place for the best interpretation of black and white with a touch of red.
