Held at Hastings Racecourse, we saw an abundance of hats with flowers and feathers in bold colours paired with stylist dresses both long and short, accessorized with heels, gloves and mirrored sunglasses.

Even with the hot weather during the weekend, the men attending the race did not disappoint. 

We observed gentlemen in top hats with tails, colourful embroidery blazers and some flamboyant tailoring. Some opted for a summer look of a shirt, vest and vibrant bowtie paired with shorts.

The Deighton Cup drew thousands of fashionable race fans, many sipping on Piper-Heidsieck champagne while enjoying a tasty light lunch from Earls. Attendees had a menu choice of a tuna bowl, chicken sandwich or a veggie burger.

This fashion search begins Saturday afternoon for 20 Style Stakes contestants which will be reduced to three male and female finalists to take the stage.

To pre-register, take a full-length photo of you and your outfit, post on Instagram and tag @deightoncup and email your photo, cell #, and Instagram image link to info@deightoncup.com before Friday, July 19th.

Or you can have a professional photo of you and your outfit taken onsite at the self-nomination centre from 12 noon to 2 pm.

Stylist men and women on the race grounds aren’t the only appeal of the Deighton Cup. You can try your luck on eight energy charged horse races, indulge on French Champagne, Acadian Sturgeon, caviar and fresh oysters, view luxury supercars and dance at the “After Track” live party with an international acclaimed DJ Frank Walker.

For the Deighton Cup is more than just fun, fashion and derby style excitement. Now in its 11th year, and with an expected audience of over 7,000 spectators, it’s where you may find yourself the Belle Du Jour or the Gallant Sartorialist of the horse races.
