ASCOT, ENGLAND - JUNE 14: In this handout image provided by Cow PR, Ambers, a racehorse owned by Fox's Biscuits, is pictured wearing the world's first ever Ladies' Day hat for a horse alongside racegoer Elizabeth Beswick on June 14, 2011 in Ascot, England. Milliner, Stephen Jones has today created the first-ever hat for a horse to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Royal Ascot and its Ladies' Day tradition of extravagant headwear. The unique piece of horse couture has been commissioned by Fox's Biscuits to be elegantly worn by the biscuit manufacturer's own fine filly, Ambers - a racehorse named after the new biscuit range, Fox's Ambers. The hat represents Stephen Jones's first foray into filly fashion; whose designs are typically tailored for a who's who of the world's most famous Stars, including royalty. The revered fashion designer is also the official milliner for Royal Ascot in its tercentenary year. The horse's hat draws its inspiration from the timeless Ladies' Day headpiece made famous by Audrey Hepburn in the film My Fair Lady. With floral flourishes and lavender and amber feathers adding flashes of colour alongside luxurious satin, it is the epitome of equine elegance. From concept to construction, the hat took more than 30 hours of masterful millinery to complete and is valued at over £8,000. Commenting on the design, Stephen Jones said: "For three centuries Royal Ascot has been home to some of the world's finest horses and finest hats. But until now, nobody had ever created hats for the other important ladies of the day: the female racehorses. When I was approached to create a hat for a horse, it brought a smile to my face and seemed like a fun and unique way to celebrate 300 years of the world's most famous racing event.
