The grandeur of the Breeders’ Cup brings the most impressive fashion, with a focus on purple and gold colors, which are the Breeders’ classic colors. Christine A. Moore Millinery was the Official Milliner of the Breeders’ Cup, outfitting celebrities on the signature “Purple Carpet” and inside the Trophy Lounge. *Davina Portratz, Loreen Hwang and Audrina Patridge are all wearing Christine A.

Following the purple carpet, the two-story Trophy Lounge hosted the VIPs for an exclusive race day experience where they enjoyed cocktails and a seated multi-course lunch while overlooking the track. Following the races, DJ VICE powered the intimate after-party at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.
