If there’s one social event you can’t afford to dress down for it’s the Dubai World Cup, and a hat is a failsafe way to add impact to any outfit – in fact, it’s essential for any woman wanting to enter this year’s Jaguar Style Stakes Best Dressed competition.
On the high street, Accessorize, Debenhams, Coast and M&S are all stocking headpieces, and big-budget options can be found at Oasis Fashions (Wafi, Dubai), Bloomingdale’s (The Dubai Mall, Dubai), Boutique 1 (Mall of the Emirates, JBR and Mirdiff City Centre, Dubai) , and S*uce (The Dubai Mall and Village Mall, Dubai, and Marina Mall, Abu Dhabi). But the region’s most sought-after head gear will be found at the Burjuman International Millinery Exhibition.
In its 10th year, the exhibition (think: huge posh designer hat market) is a one-stop-shop for headwear. Whether it’s a simple fascinator, a lavish headpiece or a classic race-day hat you’re after, you’re sure to find it here. Better yet, at selected times the Grazia magazine team will be on hand to help with styling!
