Black-eyed Susan Day wore the most extravagant dress and Ashley Darby was the first to arrive, the most popular lady on the ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ flaunting what she called ‘Preakness reality.’ The show’s cast diva posted her makeup and hair as a mood board online while also revealing the expensive details of her Bronx and Banco, Balenciaga and Chanel ensemble, declaring, “I would wear a dress like that every day if I could.”

The reality star breathed and lived the artistic vibe on the most elite horse racing day and it was actually a fashion moment that was instantly recognized. She made the crowd scream with the stunning juxtaposition of black and white on her dress, even more so because of the splendid quality of the accessories used. Darby didn’t fail to mention the fantastic support from his team in achieving the perfect performance. She was referring to hairstylist Corey for her hair and styling, and Yelena, the makeup artist, for the glam finish, all yelling at him/her.
The comments that followed mostly praised her for her fashion choice, many of them noticing the look and expressing that they loved the outfit and it caught attention. One passerby noted that he looked “dapper” in the monochrome dress, and on the other side, another lady proclaimed his status as “fabulous from head to toe.” The praise was positive and therefore demonstrated how the reality show star was, and continues to be, part of the most talked about style moments. One commenter wrote: “Your style and outfit are always on point.”
The enthusiastic responses to Darby’s outfit went beyond mere praise, with some among her followers even expressing their gratitude towards her in the present. ‘We are living for this era Ash!!!’ one excited fan shared and somewhat hinted that Darby’s fashion evolution is very much in line with her audience. Another fan went so far as to say, ‘Holy Mother of God, I’m obsessed with you,’ which shows just how strong the look must have been with which the comment was made.
However, the compliments weren’t the only comments related to the outfit. One social media user evoked Darby’s on-screen character by asking, “Besides being unbearable for Stacey, what are you going through this season?” This comment, which received matching responses, indicates that even though her fashion has been and continues to be admired, there are some in the audience who are still concerned about her dramatic on-screen relationships that have been part of the reality show.
The comment stream took a significant turn when one of the users who mentioned the music said, ‘This is my SONNNNNNGGGGGG’ while tagging Mariah Carey. When another user asked if this was a reference to Carey’s upcoming album, the first commenter confirmed that it was, thus providing a very brief but noteworthy musical interlude in the fashion-focused conversation.
Attending Darby’s Black-Eyed Susan Day is not just another red carpet event; is the celebration of the Preakness Stakes, which is one of the most important events on Maryland’s social and sporting calendars. Residing in Potomac and being a public figure, Darby has not only passed but also participates in such prestigious local events, so her status in the community is reinforced beyond her television role.
