As always, I did many hats for Del Mar Racetrack’s Opening Day. This past Wednesday, ladies were out and about in their hats for the annual hat contest.
This is the 3rd year that I have designed a hat or fascinator for TVG’s Christina Olivares. This year, she chose a fascinator to complment her dress. As you can see, the fascinator ties in the orange and light blue from the dress. Christina’s own hair color ties in the with brown.
When I saw the dress, I immediately thought that the orange and blue feathers would stand out nicely against her hair and go with her coloring. It’s nice when design projects come together so easily. As always, Christina is a delight to work with and I feel lucky to have met her. She’s an intelligent, hard working lady who grew up around horses (her dad was a jockey).
