00:14from all corners of the world didn't hold back at the 2019 Dubai World Cup on Saturday.
00:19Is this your guys' first time at Dubai World Cup?
00:24It is for me.
00:25It's my second time.
00:26Second time?
00:27Yeah, first time for my wife and I.
00:29I've been a fan of Maidan for almost five years.
00:32I've been watching it in the UK for almost seven.
00:35You've been watching it for almost half this year?
00:37Yeah, uh-huh.
00:38I was desperate to come.
00:40So yeah, when I could come two years ago, or three years ago now, I was really, really,
00:45really inspired.
00:46And then obviously I told my wife and I had to drag her here.
00:49But yeah, we're here now.
00:51I'm so glad I've made it.
00:52It's amazing.
00:53I've been here for like four times now.
00:57What keeps you coming back?
00:59The atmosphere, the show, the race, the hat competition.
01:06The hat is inspired by Lady Gaga.
01:09Look.
01:10And the colour is mixed between royal blue and camel because we are in the desert.
01:18So I said I'd create something with royal blue.
01:22And yes, the same colour.
01:25Actually, yeah, that is my first time to be here.
01:29How do you feel?
01:31Really a little bit nervous and just like surprising.
01:36But I'm so excited.
01:38I do the races here on Thursday, sometimes the brunches on Saturday.
01:42And then usually we do breakfast with the stars and culminating in the World Cup.
01:47Yeah, for literally as long as I can remember when it used to be at the Dubai Racing Club.
01:52The Dubai World Cup once again hosted the region's most anticipated fashion event, Style Stakes.
01:58There were winners in different categories.
02:00Best dressed lady, best dressed man, best dressed couple, best hat and most creative hat.
02:22The judging panel was composed of experts from the fashion industry.
02:26I reached Eden Belleza for tabloid.
