Fashions on the Field
Style is always in season at the Snake Gully Cup
This year’s Fashions on the Field competition at Snake Gully Cup on Friday 13 November, is set to break regional fashions on the field prize records, with Sydney jeweller Nicholas Haywood Jewellery confirmed as the major sponsor.
Nicholas, who has a close connection with Gundagai, having lived in the area as a child, reached out to the Gundagai Adelong Racing Club in September to discuss a potential sponsorship. Following further discussions with organisers, Nicholas offered a jewellery package to the value of $30,000!
Along with Nicholas Haywood Jewellery, long standing prize sponsors including Carmel Butler Millinery, KIMO Estate, Nimbo Fork Lodge and Coach House Flowers will bring the total prize package to more than $33,000.
This year’s event will once again celebrate individual style and creativity. The judges will expect head to toe styling across every category, however, they will also be looking for uniqueness and fashion with an edge.
Four Categories:
Best Dressed Local
The Best Dressed Local category is open to those who reside within the Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council or Snowy Valleys Council.

Best Dressed Visitor
Best Dressed Visitor will be open to anyone who resides outside Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council or Snowy Valleys Council areas.

Best Suited
The Best Suited category is open to entrants both locally and from afar. The suit must consist of at least two coordinated pieces – either a jacket and pants or jacket and skirt. Headwear is essential. Structured suiting is still very popular. We are also seeing a lot of accessorising with unique brooches, pocket squares, jewellery and belts, so this category is going to be a tough one for the judges.

Best Headwear
The Best Headwear category need a statement headpiece. Complementary styling is what the judges will be looking for, so the headpiece must be carefully considered in the overall styling.
