Lizzie Cundy has furiously demanded that Royal Ascot changes their rules after she was turned away earlier this week after flouting the strict dress code.

The 58-year-old was accused of disobeying the strict dress code in a daringly see-through netted ensemble with a racy back slit on day one of Royal Ascot.

But she hit back saying the outfit was actually lined with a beige slip and simply gave the illusion of being racier than it was. 

And now Lizzie has broken her silence as she appeared on Friday's Good Morning Britain, and while she apologised, she also suggested that it might be time Royal Ascot adapted to the times and updated their rules. 

Defending the dress she began: 'Listen, I'm going to say a galloping jockey could see that that dress wasn't see-through. 

'The dress had like a beigey underlay underneath, and I'll be honest Kate, I don't think you've seen me with so many clothes on.' 

Agreeing, host Kate Garraway said: 'Well, it is the most conservative I've ever seen you dress, Lizzie. 

'When I heard that you had run into this spot of bother, I thought, "My goodness, I've got to see what she's wearing," and I was like, "oh that's fine. What are we talking about?" But it's not fine for the Royal enclosure.'

Lizzie continued: 'I didn't follow the rules, but well, I thought actually I did follow the rules, and I got a bit of a slap on the wrist, and I have said sorry, which I am sorry, but I do believe particularly the races, it is all about the fashion. 

'Especially the women, they go and get their dresses, their hats. It's supposed to be fun, and you know that's what I am.' 

Demanding the event changes it rules she said: 'I honestly think we're taking this too seriously. Look at what's going on in the world. I mean, I abide by the rules but in fashion I like to reflect my personality.

'I'm sorry, fashions change, we need to have the Ascot rules reviewed yearly as fashion looks change through the seasons. We need it updated.'

Meanwhile etiquette expert Laura Windsor said: 'There are specific dress codes and it's all splattered all over the internet on what to wear and there are certain guidelines that you have to follow and you can still be fashionable. 

'I'm a personal stylist as well, so I understand Lizzie wanting to show her personality through her clothes, but unfortunately it did look a little bit see-through, probably because of that skin colored camisole underneath.'

Speaking to The Daily Mail after the incident on Tuesday, she said: 'Yes, I did get a rap on the knuckles but actually the dress was way more conservative than things I've worn in the past. It had a polo neck. 

'However, if I have offended anyone then I do apologise.'

Lizzie teamed her cream midi dress with a white Saint Laurent clutch, a large feather fascinator and matching heeled mules.

Sheer or revealing designs are not permitted at the prestigious event and could result in being turned away at the gate.

Just hours before arriving, Lizzie took to Instagram to share a racy snap in a white lace bra.

She captioned the post: 'Grace isn’t something you wear; it’s something you become… as well as a winner today. Get your hat and let’s go.'
