As you browse, compare the silhouette and scale of hats and fascinators, the outfit’s color, its level of formality, and how accessories work together. The available coverage supports those descriptive comparisons, but does not establish a definitive best-dressed ranking or identify exact brands worn by the celebrities.
Churchill Downs marked the anniversary with its first Kentucky Derby Style Guide, developed with fashion, beauty and entertainment journalist Zanna Roberts Rassi as Guest Style Editor. The official announcement said featured looks in the digital guide could be shopped through retailer websites; it does not establish current availability or affiliate terms.
