It’s funny, but people always assume that our business shuts down after the Kentucky Derby. Yes, it is quieter. However, I stay busy designing hats for the summer races as well as weddings and charity events all year long. Believe it or not, clients buy Kentucky Derby hats all year round!
I am working on two hats for the Belmont currently. One is for a client who attends annually. The other hat is for TVG Anchor Christina Olivares. Each year, I see more hats being worn to the Belmont. The Belmont is the last leg of the Triple Crown and this year’s race promises to be a great match-up. Will Rachel Alexandra win like she did in the Preakness? Or will the longer race benefit Mind That Bird, that come from behind horse who roars down the stretch like a locomotive? I can’t wait to watch.
The Belmont Stakes will take place on June 6th at 6:30 p.m.
