Off the track, the fashion stakes are
equally as high with the commencement

of AAMI Victoria Derby Day sets the
benchmark for the entire racing week.
Traditionally, black and white has been
the prominent colour scheme for Ladies,
while Lords often choose to wear a grey
morning suit, top hat, peacock vest and
pin-stripe pants.
The excitement slowly builds to its 3pm
fever pitch when the nation draws to a
halt for 200 heart-pounding seconds.
Each year, a new chapter is written, a
new legend is born and a new dream
comes true as the winning connections
are bestowed Australia’s most famous
sporting trophy.
