The VRC’s first gender-inclusive Fashions on the Field competition has seemingly paid off, with the winner of the best suited competition making his own skirt.
Wearing a much more traditional outfit, though still a departure from the full-skirted looks that dominated the fashions competitions of old, best dressed winner Bernadette May confessed a “reject outfit” took her all the way from the Cup Day heats to the national final, in which she took home a new car, among other prizes.
Bernadette May, a mother of four, took out the top title in the women’s category for Fashion on the Field.May, a mother of four children aged 22, 19, 6 and 1, from Geraldton in Western Australia, has entered the competition three times and been a finalist once. But her regular garb couldn’t be further from her winning combination of floral dress by Bambah and hat by Peacock Millinery.
