Hobart's Ellie Sheridan stunned judges with a floral Keepsake dress paired with Cessiah Alice millinery.
"As a Tasmanian I'm so thrilled to be able to represent my state in the national finals. To be wearing millinery designed and made in Tasmania is also pretty special, and I'm very proud to have the opportunity to celebrate that," Ms Sheridan said.
"I am always inspired by royal millinery - I wanted to create a regal look, but endeavoured to keep it current by incorporating on trend elements such as the puff sleeve and pearls."
As a state winner, Ms Sheridan will travel for 10 days to the Melbourne Cup Carnival, where she will compete against all other state finalists on the state in the iconic Fashions on the Field event.
It continues to be the largest and most well-known racewear event in Australia.
Contestants in this year's competition will be in the running for more than $118,000 worth of prizes, including a Lexus UX.
The Fashions on the Field final will take place on Kennedy Oakes Day on November 7.
