horse latitudes, or what the ponies have to do with fashion
May 15, 2008 12:05 pm

Racing fans who can’t make it down to Pimlico on Saturday consider a trip to the American Museum of Natural History instead. This weekend, the museum opens “The Horse,” a new exhibit exploring the ancient relationship between horses and the humans who couldn’t have developed modern agriculture, cities, or warfare without them. The dioramas dedicated to equestrian sports such as polo, fox hunting, and thoroughbred racing point up the horse-y influence on fashion, as well—Carolina Herrera’s Fall show, to wit—in addition to serving as a useful reminder to get bets in on the Preakness. Post time is 6:15 p.m.
