For ladies\, we recommend chic daywear such as summer dresses\, trousers\, and jumpsuits\, and welcome beautiful hats\, headpieces\, and fascinators\, of course\, on Ladies’ Day Friday. Please bear in mind that gravel paths and lawns at the Palace are not the best surface for stiletto heels….” \n\nHow To Dress\nWhichever day you choose to attend\, think “Garden Party” at Buckingham Palace\, think Royal Ascot\, and think the very best of Henley Regatta.
