Kate Waterhouse doesn’t look like this anymore! Racing royalty unveils high fashion makeover in J’Aton Couture

Kate Waterhouse is a high fashion vision in J’Aton Couture as she makes her debut as a Sydney ‘swan’ in the latest edition of Harper’s Bazaar magazine. 

The 41-year-old first daughter of racing royalty stuns in a  breathtaking floor-length white gown from the fashion house as she is crowned one of Australia’s most glamorous socialites by the publication.

For the shoot, the influencer recycled the same J’Aton dress she wore to Derby Day during the Melbourne Cup Carnival last year. 

She teamed it with a headpiece from the same label and a stylishly messy updo that would look out of place on Kate’s perfectly coiffed Instagram feed. 

‘Fashion is in my family’s DNA, but it isn’t all about opulence,’ she told the magazine in an accompanying interview. 

‘I think you can still be discreetly glamorous, not just in the way you dress but the way you live, too, which is probably my personal preference.’

J’Aton is a popular label among red-carpet regulars, including Rebecca Judd, , Kylie Minogue and Delta Goodrem.

Simple gowns, both bridal and evening wear, from the Melbourne label retail from about $10,000 up to $40,000 for something more lavish. 

The mum-of-two and daughter of celebrated style icon Gai Waterhouse is typically the picture of ‘old money aesthetic’.

‘My style, like most women, has evolved as I’ve gotten older,’ Kate wrote in a style blog published on her own website in 2021. 

‘[Things that are] not practical when chasing after two little girls and because my tastes have matured. 

‘There are simply pieces I just don’t think are right for me anymore. There are things that I wore when I was younger that I probably wouldn’t even consider now because of changes in lifestyle.’ 

Items she ‘wears to death’ included flat shoes, structured pieces (shirts and blazers) and high quality staples. 

Kate’s trend-setting fashion sense has cemented her status as a style icon on the track.

She appears in the fashion feature alongside Justin Hemmes’ partner Madeline Holtznagel, Jaimee Belle Kennedy, Kate Champion, Qianqian Deng, Paris Neilson and Beau Neilson. 

Kate is married to former NRL player Luke Ricketson and the pair share two daughters – Sophia Edie, nine and Grace Gabrie, six.

Kate, who is the daughter of Gai Waterhouse and bookmaker Robbie Waterhouse, is known for her lavish lifestyle.

The couple made headlines in 2020 when they splashed a whopping $17.8million on a mansion on Sydney’s north shore.

Located at sought after Balmoral Beach, the luxurious spread boasts five-bedrooms and amazing water views.

Tom Waterhouse, Kate’s brother, meanwhile, also owns a $13million beachfront house in the same suburb.

The racing heiress and the former sports star tied the knot in Sicily, Italy on June 28, 2012.

Popsugar reported at the time that Kate wore a Vera Wang dress, and the newlyweds were surrounded by 80 guests on their big day.
