Dannielynn Birkhead made a stylish return to the Kentucky Derby alongside her father, Larry Birkhead. The 17-year-old, daughter of the late Anna Nicole Smith, stepped out in a stunning red dress, evoking memories of her mother’s iconic fashion sense. Accompanying her outfit was a charming floral hat, completing a vintage-inspired look.
Larry complemented his daughter’s attire with a smart gray suit, accessorized with a vibrant multicolor tie and matching handkerchief. Sharing their Derby preparations on social media, Larry mentioned their attendance at the Barnstable-Brown Gala the night before and Dannielynn’s quick morning haircut.
Their social media post highlighted Dannielynn’s unique dress, inspired by the character Hino Eiji and Kamen Rider OOO TaJaDor. Larry playfully noted the resemblance, emphasizing their efforts to enjoy some quality time amidst the weekend’s traditions.
Prior to the Derby, father and daughter shared glimpses from the Barnstable-Brown Gala, where Dannielynn exuded elegance in a vintage Janet Jackson black dress. Larry, equally dapper in a gray suit and black tie, expressed excitement for the Derby weekend, especially as Dannielynn recently graduated from high school.
Although Dannielynn typically leads a private life, the Kentucky Derby serves as an exception, offering a cherished opportunity for her and Larry to partake in the racing festivities together. This tradition has endured since Dannielynn was just three years old, reflecting their enduring bond and shared love for the event.
