This autumn's Myer Fashions on the Fields competition for men and women was decided on AAMI Golden Slipper Day, 19 April at Rosehill Gardens.
The finals of the $65,000 Myer Fashions on the Field contest, was adjudicated by a panel of celebrity judges including Myer ambassadors Jennifer Hawkins and Rebecca Twigley.
For the first time, the winner of the women’s heats held on the opening day of the carnival (Myer Sydney Confidential Ladies' Day) went through to claim the title on AAMI Golden Slipper Day.
Clare Rowe from Hurstville was announced the women’s winner ahead of last year’s winner Jacquelyn Wingrove of Garden Suburb (Newcastle) and Abbotsford’s Petra Nolan.
Clare, dressed in a 1940s navy blue dress and matching feathered hat, won a prize package including $4,000 in Myer gift cards, a trip for two to Hayman Island and $4,000 worth of Rutherford jewellery.
In the men’s division, Brian Cunningham from Russell Lea took out first place ahead of the very popular Lloyd Menz from Chifley and Kellyville resident, Brenton Higgins.
