The Fashions on the Field ladies’ prize was awarded to Gabby Smith, who wore a striking marine-blue dress with a head-piece of her own creation which featured flowers of intense blue and white with matching earrings. Judge Sarah Charlesworth, a veteran of the fashion industry, complimented Gabby’s channeling of Frida Kahlo as “very on-trend”. “Sadly, too few men rose to the same standard, and best-dressed man was awarded, by majority vote, to dapper baby Toby,” said Legatee Christopher Chayko. “The Coffs Coast Legacy Woolgoolga Chapter greatly appreciates the support of Hugh and Lou and the team at Rattle for such a sumptuous, good-value lunch. “Thanks also to Fashions on the Field prize voucher donors Lalu Lalu Boutique, Bodyworks Woolgoolga, Pilates and Yoga with Mary-Ann and Rattle Restaurant too! “The sum of $300.00 was raised for Legacy from an element of each ticket price and other donations gratefully received,” Mr Chayko said.
