Geoffrey Edelsten's wife, Brynne, has caused a sensation at the Emirates marquee in Melbourne, dressed in a Las Vegas Peacock, a headpiece she created herself after sitting up until the early hours of today glueing on each feather.
The couple arrived at the marquee early this morning. Brynne, a former fitness instructor, matched her headwear with a multicoloured gown from her favourite boutique, Nurielle in Las Vegas.

Brynne has caused much commentary with her outfits since she wore an eye-popping dress to the Brownlow ceremony last year - a sheer black number with a sparkling bra top.
Mr Edelsten, a businessman, once again was the perfect accessory, arriving in his custom-made canary yellow suit, which he explained "matches my Ferrari".
Despite his outfit, Mr Edlesten said he was not a gambling man, but did have a soft spot for Bart Cummings's horse So You Think.
The marquees in the Birdcage are filling up fast, with the celebrity line-up this year including the late Richard Pratt's daugther Heloise Waislitz, Latino crooner Enrique Iglesias, cricketer Glenn McGrath and fiancee Sara Leonardi, Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al-Maktoum, Welsh singer Katherine Jenkins, actor Liam Hemsworth and Molly Meldrum.
Other guests include British fashion designer Zhanda Rhodes and Melbourne socialite and former hairdresser to the stars Lillian Frank, who has been to 50 Melbourne Cups in her 74 years and blow-dried model Jean Shrimpton's hair in 1965 when the British "It Girl" caused a stir at Flemington.
Meanwhile, Cummings has lived up to his promise and left his sick bed to be trackside to watch this afternoon’s Melbourne Cup race.
