Growing crowds at Sydney’s biggest race day prefer music to millinery.
For young ticket holders to Sydney’s biggest race day, The Everest, the set list DJ Tom Lowndes from Hot Dub Time Machine pulls together is far more important than whether a pocket handkerchief should match a tie or the position of a hat elastic.
“When asked about their motivation to attend the 2023 Sydney Autumn Carnival, 77 per cent of our general admission attendees cited having a day out as their prime reason for attendance and socialising came a close second.” “You will still see people getting dressed up, even in the general admission area where there are no dress regulations,” Forbes says. “There are young girls giving their school formal dresses another outing and men looking smart in their Oxford suits.”
Fashion might not be what makes most racegoers visit the track, but people still need something to wear. Many fashion labels prefer to keep their relationship with racing at the checkout, fearing a backlash from animal rights activists, but designer Rachel Gilbert acknowledges the season’s commercial importance.
