Kentucky Derby Fashion Inspiration

by Emily in Fashion and Style, Main on May 2, 2012

We’ve looked at inspiration and flowers, so now it’s time for fashion! Photographer Annie Edmonds sent over these lovely images of Southern belles in their Derby finery, and I don’t know about you, but they sure make me want to grab a mint julep and hitch the next ride to Kentucky for this weekend’s festivities! Are any of y’all lucky enough to be going to the races?

This will be a barn wedding and the bridesmaids will be wearing dark navy dresses empire dress with navy sequins under the breast. Do you think the sequins on the dress are to much to wear with brown boots? The band of sequins are about 2 to 3 inches wide. They are very pretty on and come right at knee. The guys are wearing khakis and a white shirt.
