The Horse Race That Stops The Nation

In Australia every year on the first Tuesday in November we have The Melbourne Cup. Even if you never ever bet on the horses, you will on Melbourne Cup day. It's a tradition.

It's not only about the race of course. It's an all day party with a chance for everybody to come dressed up in their best fashions. The ladies come in heels and dresses while wearing a  fascinator or hat is an absolute must. The men always look dapper as well. On the other hand there are a lot of people who use Melbourne Cup Day as a chance to dress in all kinds of weird and wonderful outfits.
