What Are You Going To Wear?
Stop stressing. Come as you are! We love you!
But bottom line it’s important to remember, you can never be too dressed-up for polo. So if you feel the urge, DRESS TO IMPRESS. In Texas, outfits run the gamut and fluctuate as much as the weather. Best bet is to go to the photo gallery on this website and take a look at previous events. That is the best way to gauge your wardrobe.
It is certainly an opportunity to get dressed up and look your best. But if you are not in the mood to get decked out, or simply left your Sunday Best at home, don’t let that stop you! What you will see at every polo match (and especially those with hot air balloon activations) is a variety of mixed attire from blue jeans and flip flops to colorful sundresses, khakis and button down shirts.
Folks coming primarily for polo tend to be dressed more elegantly. While families coming with the hopes of spotting a balloon at night are much more casual. These events are outdoors and the weather will be a factor in your wardrobe selection. Keep in mind that our event spaces have a lot of grass and unpaved areas, which make high heels a bit impractical. It is a good idea to wear comfortable shoes or better yet, boots! Remember you are in Texas! And this is a working ranch.
ACCESSORIZE
Feel free to get creative and playful here. Can’t find the perfect dress? Try a jacket, hat, ring, PEARLS, flat or wedge shoe, pocket square, bow tie, sunglasses, clutch or any other accessory. The after party at Bankersmith Texas is a perfect ending to a perfect day of action packed fun and thrilling polo adventure! You’ll even have a chance to mix and mingle with the professional polo players and patrons to complete your Polo experience.
Wear A Fabulous Hat Or a Fun Fascinator
if you’ve been searching for the perfect occasion to wear your favorite hat, this is it. Ladies can wear elegant wide brimmed hats embellished with feathers and organza silk to provide sun protection and make a unique fashion statement. Fascinators are whimsical, fun and easy to wear. Like this little black fascinator trimmed with ruby red feathers. There’s still enough time for last minute shopping to find a beautiful hat. Gentlemen grab your fedoras for an added touch.
Wear Wedges, Flat Sandals or Cowboy Boots
Remember ladies, you’ll be sipping champagne and stomping divots at half time, so leave those stilettos at home! Not only are stilettos a fashion faux pas at polo, they can also make half time divot stomping very complicated. For comfort and style while enjoying a fun day on the grass try a red or metallic wedge or an elegant crystal embellished flat sandal instead.
Wear Simple Flowing And Elegant Sundresses and Skirts
As long as the weather allows, a sundress that’s simple, feminine and elegant is perfect for viewing a polo match on a sunny afternoon. Opt for a dress in neutral hues like cream, pearl, silver, black or white for a classic and timeless look. This elegant hand beaded shift dress in white is perfect at the Fredericksburg Polo Club.
Feeling feminine? This intricate lace shift dress does best paired with metallic wedges and accented with a bright hat. You can also wear a classic black and white checked sports coat accented with a pocket square, shoes and belt. Slim fit suits, bowties and other preppy attire are always stylish for men to wear.
Children Dress To Impress
Pull out those comfortable party dresses in any shade. Boys will look dapper in chinos or colored cotton slacks with a patterned crisp collared shirt with accents or in any shade. Girls and boys should wear comfortable dressy casual shoes. Think pretty sandals, flats in neutral hues and boat shoes for boys.
Wear Big Sunglasses
What’s more glamorous than a pair of oversized sunglasses? Big sunglasses give your face a mysterious movie-star look while providing extra protection from the sun. For show-stopping style, choose an oversized crystal embellished sunglass. Men, smaller stylish glasses are on trend and dress up any outfit.
Most of all, have fun and get ready for this unique and fun event.
Enjoy Polo at The Fredericksburg Polo Club and The Best Party…Anywhere!!!
Don’t forget to wear your SMILE!!!
