How to Match Your Kentucky Derby Hat to Your Race Day Outfit

Picking the perfect Kentucky derby hat isn't just about the headpiece itself, it's about complementing your entire look. A general fashion rule for women heading to the track is to let either the dress or the hat take center stage. 

If you choose an elaborate, oversized derby hat or a brightly colored blue fascinator, opt for a simple, elegant dress so your accessory can truly shine. Conversely, if your dress features bold, vibrant patterns, a classic, understated wide brim hat or a delicate floral clip will strike the perfect balance.

Not flimsy which I was worried about. The horned one has an elastic back and the smaller one is a tie back. Picture shown is of the back since there is not one provided and I was curious when I bought them. Both look good and we can’t wait to wear them to our party!

This mask was perfect for a ball that was masquerade themed. I had seen one of these masks that was similar in a Chinese drama and immediately thought of this one as what I wanted to wear. Super comfortable after manipulating the metal mask to sit better on the nose, do adjustments slowly to not break this metal, though. I received compliments all night ❤️

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you wear a fascinator to the Kentucky Derby?

Yes, fascinators are very popular and perfectly acceptable to wear to the Kentucky Derby.

What is the difference between a Derby hat and a fascinator?

The main differences between a Derby hat and a fascinator are:

Derby Hats: Have a full circular brim all around that frames the face. Usually made of woven straw. Can feature embellishments like flowers or feathers.

Fascinators: A headpiece decorated with feathers, flowers, veils that attaches to a comb, band, or clip to keep it in place. Does not have a full circular brim.

What is the rule for fascinators?

The only firm rule for fascinators at the Kentucky Derby is that the base of the fascinator headpiece must have a diameter/base of 4 inches or more. This minimum size requirement is so the fascinator makes enough of a statement and is proportional against a woman's hairstyle and outfit.
