From the moment I was a little girl, I was drawn to horses, animals, and nature. I remember going with friends to watch horse races in Prague — wide-eyed and fascinated by the power and elegance of the horses.
Back then, I never imagined that one day I would return to the racetrack — not as a spectator, but as a sponsor with my own race: the RADKA FASHION Prize.
Life is full of beautiful surprises, and this day was one of them.
🎠 A Celebration of Women, Elegance & Equine Beauty
It was Ladies Day at the races — a full day dedicated to women. Every woman received a welcome drink, and the entire area was buzzing with beautiful stands, inspiring brands, and good vibes.
I had my own stand there too, showcasing my handmade leather bags from RADKA FASHION Atelier. I met so many lovely people, chatted about craftsmanship, slow fashion, and horses — and truly enjoyed every minute.
The weather was just right: not too hot, not too cold. The atmosphere was full of excitement, elegance, and celebration.
🏆 The RADKA FASHION Prize
I had the honor of sponsoring a race, and yes — there was a special prize from me.
But since I didn’t know who the winner would be — a woman or a man — I came prepared:
🎒 For the winner if it was a woman, I prepared a hand-painted leather backpack with a horse's head motif — a true statement piece made with love and care.
👜 If a man had won, I had a stylish men’s leather crossbody bag ready to go.
Spoiler: it was a woman who crossed the finish line first, and she received the hand-painted backpack with joy. Seeing her face light up was such a beautiful moment!
🐴 A Day to Remember (Even If My Bet Lost!)
Yes, I even placed a little bet on one of the horses… but let’s just say luck wasn’t quite on my side this time 😄
Still, the day was full of genuine connections, inspiration, and the perfect blend of tradition and modern craftsmanship. Being part of this event — with my products, my story, and my deep love for animals — meant the world to me.
To support the equestrian world not only financially but also with something handcrafted and heartfelt is exactly the kind of collaboration I cherish.
If you ever get the chance to visit a race day like this — go. It’s not just about horses. It’s about elegance, energy, and the people you meet along the way.
With love from the track,
Radka 🤍
