Fashion fails and triumphs: Melbourne Cup 2012

The famous horses failed to impress on the track at Flemington today, but thankfully the same wasn’t true for the human celebrities.

Stars from Australia and overseas wowed in an array of colourful frocks and dazzling hats as they partied the day away in the Melbourne Cup’s marquees.

Notable fashion highlights were Camilla who looked lovely in cream and soft caramel Bruce Oldfield coat with a Philip Treacy hat, and Australian cricket captain Michael Clarke’s wife Kyly, who chose a flowing neon orange number.
