Capital City Derby Fashion FAQs

1. What colors should I avoid wearing to the Derby?
Avoid wearing all black, dark fall/winter tones, or neutral colors. The Derby is a bright fashion showcase—pastels, pinks, yellows, whites, and baby blues are the way to go!

2. Can I wear jeans to the Derby?
No! Denim is a big no-no. Instead, opt for spring dresses, suits, leather shoes, or heels. If you must wear pants, they should be loose, stylish, and paired with statement accessories.

3. Is there a specific color palette I should follow?
Yes! Embrace spring colors—bright and cheerful hues inspired by spring flowers. Bold patterns and fabrics are also encouraged.

4. Are high heels a must?
Yes! High heels complete your Derby look and add elegance. Flats and sneakers take away from the "wow-factor."

5. Can I keep my outfit simple?
No! The Derby is all about going big with your fashion. Don’t hold back on colors, patterns, accessories, or statement pieces. Men should embrace bold suits, bow ties, fun socks, and standout cufflinks.

6. Do I have to wear a hat?
They aren’t required, but a large, extravagant hat is a Derby tradition. Many outfits are even chosen to match the hat. Even if you never wear hats, this is the event to embrace one!

7. What’s the most important fashion rule for the Derby?
Have fun with your outfit! Whether bold and unforgettable or timeless and sophisticated, make sure your look reflects your personality and stands out in the crowd.
