From fabulous hats to show-stopping dresses, fashion at the Dubai World Cup is always incredible, and the 2019 edition of the horse racing at Meydan Racecourse in Dubai did not disappoint. A total of 50,000 people are thought to have attended the Dubai World Cup this year, watching jockeys and their steeds battle it out for the $35m prize purse. Thousands dressed up to the nines, sporting fantastic fascinators and excellent hats, as they attempt to outdo each other at the Style Stakes and the hat-judging contest. <strong>Flick through the gallery above to see the best looks from race day.</strong> Can you spot yourself? Katharina Dietrich, pictured first, is dressed in an extraordinary pink ensemble peppered with flowers. Ms Dietrich has attended the Dubai World Cup for 14 years in a row (the race began in 1996). Her outfits have gotten more elaborate over the years, and in 2019 she's taken accessorising to a professional level – fan, handbag and necklace all punch pink. To top it all off, a peacock, sitting gracefully in a truly fascinating fascinator, with a "Dubai World Cup" sign. So what's the trick? "It's all about spontaneous thinking," she tells <em>The National</em>. "I see pink flowers and have an idea."
