INTRODUCING TWO NEW CATEGORIES

Brand new for 2026, The Style Awards introduced two new categories, celebrating standout fashion across the racecourse:

Best Hat: honouring bold, beautiful and unforgettable millinery

Best Suited: recognising impeccable tailoring

Each year it gets more and more difficult for our judges to choose a winner and these new categories help to celebrate the true style and uniqueness of our racegoers. Ladies Day at The Randox Grand National is a celebration of standing out, not fitting in, and celebrates the bold and the fabulous. All categories were open to any age or gender and with incredible prizes up for grabs this year, the competition was bigger and better than ever.

Created to honour the bold, unforgettable, and show-stopping headpieces that define Ladies Day at Aintree, the new award celebrates the creativity that makes the day unlike any other in the racing calendar. 

To mark the occasion, Debenhams Ambassador and world-renowned milliner Lisa Tan joined the 2026 judging panel, bringing her exceptional eye for race-day style. Originally from Australia, Lisa’s career spans fashion design, journalism, luxury retail and, ultimately, the millinery craft she’s now globally recognised for. A dedicated supporter of horseracing, her racewear expertise is sought after across the UK, US and Australia by style leaders and media alike. With Lisa on board and a brand-new award up for grabs, this year’s Style Awards was the most vibrant and fashion-forward yet.
