☆ Hats on and Off at the 150th Kentucky Derby
  + stars: | 2024-05-04 | by ( The Styles Desk | David Kasnic | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min

The tradition for wearing eye-catching attire to America’s most famous horse race began in the 1870s. The founder of the Kentucky Derby, Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr., was inspired by the fashionable dress codes at events like Ascot in Britain and Paris’s Grand Prix. Creating his own, he figured, would transform his racetrack from a place of ill-repute to one for well-heeled high society.
