Expect a relaxed and cool approach to racewear at Royal Randwick Racecourse on Saturday, as mini skirts replace floral dresses.

Traditional racewear is a late scratching from the spring carnival, as the Gen Z fashion pack prioritise bubble skirts and slinky gowns over floral dresses and fascinators.dress-sharing platform The VolteModels at Royal Randwick Racecourse display a more relaxed take on racewear for The Peacock Lounge in the Winx Stand at The Everest.Data from The Volte shows a spike of more than 15,000 orders during the racing season, with black, pink and printed outfits outranking traditional florals.

“It’s about more prizes, rather than a big prize for the same people who enter every year,” says Donna Forbes, head of commercial at the Australian Turf Club.Viera Macikova, winner of Fashions on The Front Lawn “While this format should appeal to the younger crowd, it may not appeal to the older and more traditional audience,” says Macikova. “It doesn’t allow us to showcase racewear fashion the way it used to be done. There is now a sense of the fashion community being slightly lost.”

“We have created areas for general admission ticket holders, like the Peacock Lounge, where fascinators are not required and women won’t feel left out if they don’t have a designer dress,” Forbes says.
