LADIES wanting to get ahead at the forthcoming Cheltenham Festival need look no further than a lunch being hosted by milliner to the stars Robyn Coles at the Dormy House Hotel near Broadway next week.

On Monday, March 3, the former buyer for Armani, Liberty and Browns, will be hosting a Hats & All That pre Ladies Day lunch in the Garden Room Restaurant at the Dormy.

She said: "I'm really looking forward to hosting the lunch at Dormy and introducing the ladies to millinery. By the end of the lunch most, if not all, of them will have a hat on as they see what styles work with their face shapes and looks. However my feeling has always been if it makes you happy and you love it, there are no rules."

Tickets for the three-course lunch and Veuve Cliquot reception are £35 per head. For more information visit dormyhouse.co.uk, call 01386 852711 or email reservations@dormyhouse.co.uk.
