It’s off to the races for Kentucky Derby fans. From the beginning, fashion was associated with the Kentucky Derby as Col. Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr., who founded Churchill Downs, hoped to make the race a high-class event, according to the Kentucky Derby notes on its website. For the hats, the Kentucky Derby suggests those in seated areas of Churchill Downs wear more traditionally southern, wide-brimmed hats. Recently, thanks in part to Kate Middleton, fascinators have also become a trend at the Kentucky Derby. But the gentlemen can wear hats as well.
