It's easy to be green! One reveler stood out in signature style by teaming his green suit with a pink coat and accessories

After racegoers at Cheltenham have spent the last four days upping the style stakes in the battle for best dressed, it has produced some stunning outfit combinations.

The outfits were inspired by big name designers such as Chanel, with the racecourse awash with houndstooth in black and white as well as plenty of colour.

Jade Holland Cooper turned heads in her traditional beige tweed three-piece suit, which she paired with a crisp white blouse, crimson tie and olive suede heels.

Another race-goer oozed style as she wore a hat that had a large black bow, oversized sunglasses and a kimono-style jacket with various animals printed on it. She showed off her graceful figure by cinching in the waist with a corset which tied the look together.

Unlike Royal AscotCheltenham has no strict dress code, instead telling guests that ‘style is as individual as you are’ and encouraging them to wear their ‘best outfits and favorite accessories’.

One man showed off his original style when he chose a mismatched suit which was both pink and plaid followed by odd shoes.

Over a sea of ​​fedoras and colorful fascinators, members of the royal family could be seen enjoying the event while looking just as smart.

Princess Anne wore a subdued emerald jacket with velvet cuffs and a matching hat, while Princess Beatrice and Edo played it safe with neutral tones and long-line coats.

Princess Eugenie looked elegant in white as she strolled hand-in-hand with her cousin, Zara Tindall, who opted for a sophisticated pinstripe trouser suit matched with a burgundy blouse and headpiece.
