They came to be seen, to socialise and to enjoy the lead-up to the $10m feature race. The sunny, temperate weather had tourists and residents dressing in their brightest colours, adding to one of world racing's biggest spectacles.
Colourful outfits crowned by spectacular and outlandish hats were the main attractions off the racetrack in the build-up to the world’s most lucrative horse race.
From bright red dresses to tailored suits and top hats, the emphasis was on style at Meydan Racecourse.
