[h-cost] HELP: What event is this worn to?

[Penny Ladnier]

I have an illustration of three beautiful hats from a 1922 French fashion 
magazine and the caption is:

Dans la Tribune des Dames le jour des Drags

What event was these hats worn?  If I put in Google jour des Drags images 
come up like equestrian events.  Was/Is there an equestrian event called 
Tribune/ Day of the Drags?  I am just guessing...so the French speaking list 
members, go on...fall off your chair laughing at me.

This magazine is really good at providing French and English translations for 
the fashion image descriptions but only provides French text for the overall 
topic.  

I wish I hadn't quit French class in high school.  Our local community colleges 
do not offer French classes.   I have gotten very fast typing in French.  But I 
only know what the meaning of some French fashion terms that are common in 
English.   One day, I am going to be able to translate what I have been typing!

[h-cost] British Magazine

My first thought was unashamed scam. My second was that they mean to publish 
it, but I highly doubt they will. They are asking for investment, not trying to 
sell magazines. Anyone who tells you there will be no refunds obviously means 
to use your money to try to get their venture started, and when, not if, it 
fails, there won't be any money to pay anyone back. I think they're trying to 
avoid lawsuits. 
Why not wait until they have something to show?
