More than ever, Australians are using buy-now pay-later platforms for fashion and beauty purchases to forego the credit card and spread out costs so they can properly enjoy an occasion. Attending at day the races can be an expensive exercise, however with Australia’s favorite fashion retailers and Afterpay, you can enjoy your day without the upfront financial hit–with 4 equal and manageable fortnightly payments.

He stated that, “At the heart of it, Afterpay is a fashion and beauty sales platform. We connect Australian customers to the brands they know and love, but also introduce them to brands they may not have considered”.

Think exciting hemlines, tailored suiting for the ladies and a real play with structural fashion cues. Of course, we’re still ensuring it’s trackside appropriate, but trackside looks with an edge.” Max added that this racing season’s makeup look follows a less- is -more approach, “Think simple, natural and really clean. We’re loving dewy natural skin and highlights, bronzed natural tones and nude lips with gloss for that natural shine. The key is knowing which products will give you that natural coverage but won’t shift throughout the day”.
