On Saturday, horse racing fans around the world were on the edges of their seats (for a little over two minutes, at least) as they watched jockey Javier Castellano finally win the Kentucky Derby after 15 tries. And The Rock was in on the action, as several gathered at the Terra Nova All-Suite Hotel for the American Women's Group of Jamaica's (AWG) 'Fashionable Derby', a watch party and fashion show to benefit the organisation's scholarship fund and charities.
And while seersucker and pastels are usually prime derby day fashion, several Rock-fab attendees were spotted making their mark in white.
Here are a few of our faves, plus looks fresh from the Signatures Boutique runway.
