Lizzie Cundy is demanding that Royal Ascot update its dress code after she was turned away for what she wore.
The whole drama started when Lizzie turned up to the event in a netted outfit. People at the gates said she didn’t follow the rules because the outfit apparently looked see-through.
Personally, I think the event organisers might have been a bit too strict here. Anyway, Lizzie went on Good Morning Britain to explain what actually happened.
On the show, Lizzie said, “Listen, that dress wasn’t see-through.”
She explained that her outfit had a lining underneath. The host of the show, Kate Garraway, actually agreed with her. Kate Garraway said, “Well, it is the most conservative I’ve ever seen you dress, Lizzie.”
Lizzie apologised for the situation, but she feels the event needs to change with the times. She mentioned that fashion is supposed to be fun and women love choosing their dresses and hats.
Lizzie said, “I honestly think we’re taking this too seriously.” She believes the event should review its fashion rules every single year.
But not everyone is on her side. An etiquette expert named Laura Windsor said that the rules are all over social media for everyone to see.
Before you go, I wanna know, do you think Royal Ascot should change its rules?
