The Spencer sisters stepped out in stunning colour-coordinated red ensembles as they attended the Melbourne Cup today<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The socialite twins, both 31, looked effortlessly chic in matching dresses, which they paired with understated headpieces<\/p>\n

Lady Amelia donned a short skater-style dress featuring a sweetheart neckline and short sleeves.<\/p>\n
She paired the dress with red stilettos and a flower headband, with her blond tresses swept back into a ponytail.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Lady Eliza opted for a red ankle-length, off-the-shoulder gown, with a slit at the front.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Completing her outfit, Lady Eliza wore a thin gold headpiece that came down over her face and a pair of ‘barely there’ heels. She wore her hair down in a sleek style, tucked behind her ears.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Both sisters kept their make-up clean and minimal, opting for a natural pink lip colour and nude eye make-up.<\/p>\n
The twins’ appearance comes after they attended a fashion show to mark the 50th anniversary of designer Marc Cain GmbH in Bodelshausen in September.<\/p>\n
And it seems the Spencer sisters enjoy colour-coordinating, as then they were both pictured in pink ensembles.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Amelia lit up the room in bright pink culotte trousers and a matching blue and magenta silk blouse which was tucked in at the waist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To accessorise, she held onto a bag which popped against her pearly white manicure.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, Eliza was the picture of sophistication in a pastel pink dress, which featured cape-like detailing along the shoulders.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adding a touch of glitz, she teamed the simple yet elegant frock with a silver clutch and heels.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They sat in the front row at the fashion show, and were joined by Diane Kruger, whom they could be seen sharing a smile with at the event.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Their outing came after the Spencer family marked the 26th anniversary of Princess Diana’s passing the day before on August 31.<\/p>\n
Lady Eliza previously admitted neither of the twins had any idea of Diana’s impact on the world until years after her death.<\/p>\n
‘We always just knew her as our aunt,’ she told Tatler in 2021, adding that she remembers her as\u00a0‘incredibly warm, maternal and loving’.<\/p>\n
‘Growing up in South Africa, I really had very little idea of how significant she was in the world until I was much older… She always made an effort to connect with us as children and had a talent for reading children’s hearts.’<\/p>\n
