Lauren cut an elegant figure in the ankle length dress which featured a collarless neckline and pleated detailing on the skirt.
She complemented the look a statement floral hat and added a boost to her height with gold sandals.
Simon, meanwhile, rocked a blue patterned waistcoat and high-waisted pinstripe trousers for his day at the races.

The former X Factor judge carried a copy of the Racing Post in his briefcase, ready for the upcoming races.
Sinitta also arrived at Ascot with her mother Miquel Brown. The songstress caught the eye in her bright dress, which she teamed with a fedora hat, Hermes handbag and fan.
Sinitta and Simon have remained close friends for more than 30 years. The former couple first met in 1983.

The songstress previously said their on-off romance didn’t stop until he had his son Eric, seven.
She told New Magazine last year: ‘There was always an element of “well, it’s never really over”.
‘But when Eric was born that was it. I would never come between his family.
‘[Lauren] and I were best friends. I’m really happy for them, but it was hard and caused a fallout. adore Eric and he wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for them.’

Simon has been making more public appearances, nearly a year after breaking his back.
He reportedly came within ‘one-centimetre of being paralysed’ when he fell from an electric bike and broke his back in multiple places.
The entertainment mogul was rushed to hospital at the beginning of August when he fell from his bicycle whilst taking it for a test drive at his house in Malibu.
He was at home with his partner Lauren, 43, their son, Eric and his stepson Adam, 14, at the time.
