Derby Day 2024: Every fashion look from Melbourne Cup Carnival

The fashion at Derby Day has kicked off! And Samantha Armytage has gone with an unexpected look.

The fashion at Derby Day has kicked off with a lavish start as the stars are going all-out this year.

Jackson Warne and Brooke Warne, the children of the late and great Shane Warne, turned up matching for the Derby Date.

Jackson looked so much like his late father as he wore a classic black suit, and Brooke stunned in a black mini-dress.

Jackson’s girlfriend, Kiah Broadsmith, accompanied him and rocked a black mini-dress with a statement sleeve.

Samantha Armytage, who has just been announced as the host of 10’s Golden Bachelor, stunned in a tight-fitting black dress and little white hat.

The 48-year-old was beaming and looked gorgeous, and she stopped to pose for photographers.

The black dress was clinched at the waist and was an unexpected choice for the star who usually wears a more traditional look.

Model and mental health advocate Molly Olivia Rogers was seen rocking a bridal look for the day.

As one of the first arrivals, the stunning model wore a strapless white dress and a chunky headband.

The 32-year-old, who separated from ex-husband Justin Mckeone after eight months of marriage in 2022, looked breath-taking in all-white.

Erin Holland is living proof that you can completely turn things around after a very public mishap.

The model was hailed as the style icon of Derby Day in 2023, with fans describing her black and white off-the-shoulder dress as “stunning” and “gorgeous”.

But just 12 months earlier, the TV host was the unlucky celebrity at Flemington Racecourse who hit headlines after she suffered a wardrobe malfunction.

The 35-year-old became unstuck inside the prestigious Birdcage during the annual festivities when the dress’ thigh split revealed a little more than she bargained for.

In a series of very relatable snaps, Holland – who had been styled by fashion guru Donny Galella – inadvertently flashed her undies to onlookers while moving between the invite-only marquees inside the exclusive enclosure.

As the old adage goes, “it can happen to anyone”, but unfortunately for the former Miss World Australia the mishap occurred in front of a team of waiting photographers.

Understandably, Holland was determined not to fall foul when she returned to the scene of the crime the following year, opting for a white hooded dress which finished at her knee while attending as a guest of Penfold’s.

Her custom mini-dress made by Jaton Couture, styled again by Galella, was paired with a black Bulgari bag and Billini peep-toe shoes as well as black leather gloves.

“This is so hot,” one follower declared at the time, confirming Holland had bounced back from the wardrobe malfunction in 2022.

“Killed it,” another agreed.

Holland is not the first person to fall victim to a wardrobe mishap at Derby Day in 2022, with New Zealand movie director Taika Waititi having to take emergency action to stop his suit pants falling down.

After accidentally giving the “wrong size” to luxury fashion brand Armani, Waititi received pants on the day that were far too big, a crisis that was resolved with a spot of quick thinking.

“I had to do a little emergency stitch down in the toilets and I stitched these (an extra button on his pants) myself,” he said.
