2024 Kentucky Derby weekend, horses may be in focus, but it’s also all about the outfits. We are talking 150 years of fashion, after all.

From the initial running of the Kentucky Derby in 1875 to now, the fashion at the racing event has largely evolved. As previously reported by The Courier Journal, it was common for many of the first women attending the event to wear large hoop skirts, corsets and a large bonnet.

While a wide-brimmed hat or fascinator, as an unspoken “must” of Derby culture, is still going to be seen by spectators in the 150th Run for the Roses, much of the fashion culture has changed.
