A popular Australian influencer has turned heads in a plunging “princess” gown while attending a prestigious racing event on Saturday.

Well-known fitness queen Amy Castano — who co-owns Acero Gym with her influencer ex-Jono — was snapped at the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival International Women’s Day Lunch wearing a pastel mini-dress with a statement neckline.

The bustier-style frock from Australian fashion brand Meshki was paired with a matching scarf she draped across her neck and a white mesh headpiece from Magnolia Ave and a pair of pink Prada high-heels.

Many of Castano’s 570,000 followers quickly declared the fitness star’s bust-flaunting look the “outfit of the day”.

Hayden, a sports presenter, said she was proud to attend the luncheon - held on International Women’s day - as she “loved celebrating” females in the field.

“Racing holds so many incredibly passionate and skillful women,” she said.

“We see jockeys, trainers, and people attending the event. So we’re celebrating the girls here today.”

The fancy lunch, which was hosted with prestigious winemakers Penfolds, officially kicked off the Sydney Autumn Racing Carnival.
