Celebrities put their best foot forward at Caulfield Cup

It may be a $5 million race day, but the eyes of punters weren’t solely on the horses at the Caulfield Cup.

Giddy up! The Caulfield Cup is back for 2023

Spring racing has well and truly kicked off with the Caulfield Cup featuring celebrities such as Bec Judd and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.

The race is part of Victoria Racing Club’s Melbourne Carnival with Saturday’s winner – Without A Fight – taking home the $5 million prize.

However, it wasn’t just the horses drawing the attention of attendees.

Former WAG Bec Judd was styled by Lana Wilkinson and chose a blue formfitting dress from Eliya the Label.

The dress featured a halter neck design and gathered fabric at the bottom, with a split in the back.

She paired the look with blue sandal heels from Lana’s shoe brand, and a blue clutch from Boyyo. Judd finished the look with a wide brim mesh hat from Stephanie Spencer.

Social media users were equally impressed with the flawless look, with Henne founder Nadia Bartel commenting on the photo: “Yes my girl!!!”

Another simply said; “This dress is gorgeous”.

“Absolute perfection,” another social media user commented on the photograph.

Jackie ‘O’ meanwhile celebrated the big day at Randwick Racecourse in Sydney, rather than making the trip to Melbourne.

The award-winning radio presenter wore a floorlength halter neck dress from Rebecca Vallance with a $799 price tag.

The dress featured a split in the torso that was held together by strips of material, and a geometric blue and black design.

She finished the look with a pair of pointed heels, a nude bag and she styled her hair in a simple ponytail at the nape of her neck.

“Definitely NOT psychic, lost every bet. Next time might have to do more than just pick my favourite name,” she captioned her Instagram photo.

Mia Fevola, the daughter of AFL Brendan Fevola, wore a strapless orange mini dress with a bow on the front of the bust.

She paired it with a pair on white sandal heels, a white shoulder bag and a white hat with a wide brim.

Her parents, Brendan and Alex, also attended the huge event with the AFL star turned radio presenter wearing a pastel blue suit paired with a lavender shirt and a pink striped tie.

Meanwhile, her wife Alex wore a floorlength white dress with a lace overlay, pairing it with a smaller fascinator that sat off to the side of her head.

Influencer and entrepreneur Sophie Cachia was also styled by Lana Wilkinson wearing a yellow dress with ruched material around the hips.

The dress had a singlet-style design and Sophie completed the look with a red headband and bold jewellery selection.
