When it comes to winning racing style, Ingrid has divulged her top tips for the Prize for Elegance: 1. Go with your own style and wear something you love! 2. Good tailoring is a must – ensure your attire is well fitted and add some personality 3. Elegance should emulate from top to toe so attention to detail is essential. 4.  Make sure your footwear is comfortable as well as super stylish – it can be a long afternoon on your feet. 5. Most importantly – smile, have fun and enjoy your day at the races!
