AN ARRAY of stunning styles were on show as more than 6,000 visitors flocked to this year’s Stobo Castle Ladies Day at Musselburgh Racecourse last Friday.

The Style Awards were newly launched for 2022, with the competition looking for style, elegance and individuality – judged by leading Scottish stylists and influencers including Eva Arrighi, Laura Russell, Amee Young and Maggie Smith.

Eva said: “Ladies Day is synonymous with getting dressed up, and each year we see a collection of stunning styles and fashions.

“This year we were looking at the evolution of style and the competition was steep, with so many amazing outfits worn by both the ladies and gentlemen attending the event.”

The top awards on the day for the most stylish attendees went to: winner of the Style Awards 2022 – Aneela Afzal, of Edinburgh; second place – Heather Burnside, from Dalkeith; and third – Ryan Young, of Eyemouth.

The most stylish hat accolade was awarded to Josephine Lynas, from Dunfermline.

Aisling Johnston, commercial manager at Musselburgh Racecourse, said: “We were delighted to welcome back thousands of spectators to enjoy our stylish sell-out Stobo Castle Ladies Day. It’s always a great day out and such a fabulous opportunity for people to really get dressed up – and this year they didn’t disappoint.”
