Xa kuziwa kwiminqwazi eKentucky Derby, kukho injongo eyodwa: Qaphela. Apho, amanenekazi anika ezinye zehlabathi ezintle kakhulu, ezityhutyha amehlo chapeaus zineentyatyambo, iintsiba, izaphetha, kunye neebhali, zihlala zinemibala emnandi. Ngamanye amaxesha bayamodareyithwa kwii-toppers ezinxitywa ngoodade bethu basebukhosini (ewe, ingayinguKate Middleton kunye noMeghan Markle) abathembele kumtsalane wesitayile esincinci (abanye ngenene babizwa ngokuba ngabathiyi - uhlobo lomntwana onothando Umnqwazi kaDerby kunye nomtsalane) kwaye bayabetha ngokulinganayo.
Uthini umahluko omkhulu? Umnqwazi unesithsaba kuwo obeka intloko kuwo kunye nomphetho ophumayo, utsho uChristine Moore UChristine A. Moore oMatshini , Owayila iminqwazi kangangeminyaka engama-25 kwaye wabizwa njenge-milliner yeKentucky Derby 144 kunyaka ophelileyo. Uza kuvelisa ama-3,000 e-toppers yokunxiba iminqwazi kwimisitho yehashe kulo nyaka. Ndibiza abathandekayo ukuba 'yinto encinci yentloko' kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo liqela leentsiba kwikama, kwikliphu, okanye kwi-headband. Ihleli phezulu entlokweni yakho. Yonke enye into, nangona abantu beyibiza ngokuba ngumtsalane, eneneni ngumnqwazi wecocktail. Kwaye kukho igama elibizwa ngokuba yi-hatinator elimise intloko njengomnqwazi kodwa lihlale njengomtsalane.
UMoreth uzukisa uKate Middleton ngokwanda kokuthandwa komtsalane. Ndihlala ndizithanda kwaye ndizinxiba ngokwam, kodwa akukho mntu wayenomdla kuzo. Emva koko kwangena umtshato wasebukhosini phakathi kukaKate kunye neNkosana uWilliam kwi2011 kwaye yayiyeyona nto iphambili kubathandi. Umtshato wawulungile phambi kweKentucky Derby kwaye akukho mntu wayenokuzigcina kwisitokhwe. Ukususela ngoko baye baba yinto ephambili ekuqokeleleni kwethu.
Ngokuka-Moore, isitayile sikaKate sinesimo esithile seKentucky Derby. Ibubufazi kakhulu, intle encinci enesuntswana layo. Ubonakala ekhululekile kwiminqwazi kwaye kubonakala ngathi ubonakalisa imo yakhe kunye nobuntu kwaye yindlela othwala umnqwazi ofanelekileyo ekufuneka ejonge ngayo. I-icon yefashoni yokwenyani kaKate kwaye wonke umntu ufuna ukuba mhle njengaye.
Kunyaka ophelileyo, ekhokelela kwimitshato kaMeagan Markle kunye neNkosana uHarry (kwenzeka ukuba iwele kwangolo suku lunye nePreakness Stakes), uMorell wathi wayesazi ukuba abantu abanomdla bazokuza ngamandla. Kodwa uthi, UMeaghan ubonakala ngathi akakhululekanga kangako kwiminqwazi. Kuphantse ukuba umntu othile wathi kuye 'kufuneka unxibe le nto.' (Mhlawumbi ziingcambu zaseMelika nayo yonke loo nto.) Kodwa, ngokuka-Moore, ulawula kakuhle ukhetha imigca ecocekileyo kodwa uyilo oluhle.
UMore uthi ngokwakhe, ungaphezulu kweqela uMarkle. Ndingaphezulu kohlobo olucwangcisiweyo kwaye ndicinga ukuba kukho ukuzithemba okwenyani kuloo nto ... kuyinto entle kakhulu.
