The fashion picks for the ceremonial opening of Parliament yesterday were not as hot as the pelting sun. Nevertheless, parliamentarians, government officials and their spouses - from stately to ordinary - strutted confidently on Duke Street to Gordon House.

The colours of choice were more subdued this year. Creme seemed to be the favourite for many, which was perhaps a smart choice to keep cool in the mid-morning sweltering heat.

Various combinations of black and white were fashion picks for many of the ladies. Splashes of bold colours - hues of blue and aqua were dazzling.

And oh, the hats - which have now become a staple of this grand occasion - were fabulous. Those that caught our fashion lenses exquisitely complemented the outfits.
