Hello Canada has day 1 and day 2 on their site, but of course mostly just the Royal Family. I do enjoy seeing what the commoners are wearing to the races!! I am just so happy to see an event taking place after everything being cancelled last year. From those outfits they are HAPPY too!!

Zara and Mike (first pix) clean up real well. Usually they look kind of disheveled and horsey.
I remember a pix of Sarah Ferguson from a couple years ago dressed in velvet for spring. OMG she looked awful.

I wondered why people wore hats at horse races. It started out as a status symbol, when only wealthy attended the events; they wanted to set themselves apart from the average public. Now it's just tradition.
Some of those hats are nice, but the outrageous ones look ridiculous. Everyone does look happy, though.

Some look good, and I love the hats!Some of the hats are way out there though, but I guess they are just having fun! Is that Simon Cowell? It sure looks like him!

Hats for women and top hats for men are part of the dress code for Ascot. Where is Simon Cowell's top hat?

@teganslaw Back in the day, turn of the century, and even up to the 1950 and 60's for going out almost everyone of any economic status wore hats.
My mom and dad wore hats, you went to church you wore a hat. Dad wore hats until the 1970's. Remember those hats Frank Sinatry wore? John Kennedy started the trend for men to NOT wear hats.

No worse than what is worn at the Kentucky Derby.
