Festivities took on a zesty flavour at Auckland Cup Day yesterday as one woman braved the grey skies in a lemon-themed jumpsuit.
Aimee Dublin's citrus creation - topped with lemon fascinator - was just one of the fancy ensembles on show for the traditional raceday fashion extravaganza.
Come Auckland Cup Day, the horse-racing can often take a back seat to the Fashion in the Field competitions.
Winners of the Stella Artois Cup Couture's Best Dressed Couple was Marie Donaldson in a black-and-red ensemble and her son, Fraser, dressed in a vintage-inspired black three-piece suit, complete with gold chain.
About 5000 were at Ellerslie Racecourse to watch the favourite, Shez Sinsational, win the $500,000 Auckland Cup.
