Gothic Hats Make the Kentucky Derby


Southern Belles, sunny Kentucky, horse races... I usually don't expect to find anything but pastels and big hair at the Kentucky Derby. However, a few stylish guests brought a darker sensibility to the events. Signature Gothic details like black lace, long feathers and antiqued roses made their way to many a hat at these games.

The flamboyant Johnny Weir wore a dramatic wide brimmed chapeau with a designer blazer worthy of Gomez Addams.
