Hickstead Director Jodie Kidd teamed up with Al Shira'aa Derby winner William Whitaker and his wife Elisabeth to select this year's Style Saturday winners, with the final judging taking place in the International Arena on the penultimate day of the Agria Royal International Horse Show. 

For the first time, a man claimed the winning spot on the best dressed podium, with Horsham local Kim Jones taking the top prize of a luxury spa break and stay for two at Ockenden Manor Hotel & Spa.

"I’m staggered, because the girls are just gorgeous," said Kim, who was at the show to support his wife, who was performing in the Village Green with Choir & Ko.

The runner-up was Eliza Shrimpton, a medical sciences graduate who wore her House of CB graduation dress as well as a hat from Karen Millen. Eliza’s prize was an overnight stay for two at South Lodge.

Claire Montague claimed third place with a new polkadot dress. She won a bottle of Highweald Sparkling Wine, plus a tour and tasting at the Highweald Vineyard.

All three of the Style Saturday finalists were awarded a beautiful bouquet from Cottage Flowers.
