The former Countdown star showcased her enviable figure in the tight-fitting number, which clung to her body and highlighted her pert posterior.
She teamed the long-sleeved number with a brown belt, which further accentuated her trim waist, and a pair of silky black gloves.
Putting an androgynous spin on her glamorous style, Carol paired her ensemble with a stylish tweet flat cap.
Ensuring she stole the spotlight, the 56-year-old chose a striking hat from a local milliner Lisa von Hallwyl for the event.
However, as she climbed into a helicopter to be transported to the races, she was forced to take off the quirky number in order to fit inside.

She previously told her 377,000 followers on Twitter that she would not be flying because she "won't get a headset over the hat".
But, it seems, she had to remove it anyway and could be seen without it as she posed for a selfie with her friends as they prepared to take off.
She was then able to showcase her blonde locks, which were styled in loose curls while she sported smokey eye make-up to compliment her dark gown.
