More Top Hats, Please
I’m watching At the Races‘ live video stream of opening day at Royal Ascot and thinking, there just aren’t enough occasions for men to appear in top hats and morning coats (even racing pundit John McCririck, who I saw wandering around the Breeders’ Cup last fall wearing what looked like a large fleece blanket with a polar bear pattern, is cleaned up). Perhaps instead of making the Saratoga clubhouse dress code more casual this summer, NYRA should toughen it up, encouraging a renaissance in classy men’s wear.
More insightful, less sartorial, comment on the Ascot races available at the Guardian live blog …
