Julie Bishop wears floral ensemble to Melbourne Cup
Julie Bishop wore a head-to-toe floral outfit to the Melbourne Cup in Melbourne on Tuesday.
The former Australian politician, 70, wore a full-length dress, a matching Lady Dior handbag valued at $12,000 and a straw hat.
The outfit was more heavily patterned than her usual elegant style, which the story describes as a rare fashion misstep.
Bishop was a guest in the Lexus marquee and posed for photos without her boyfriend, Stephen Gray.
Her outfit drew attention for its bold floral look and costly bag, alongside the diamonds she wore.
The story gives no further developments or next steps.
