Karen Larue

Bold, refined, and unmistakably Derby-ready, Karen LaRue is a striking expression of Southern sophistication. This radiant crimson statement hat features a sculpted rose centerpiece that blooms with timeless femininity, while sweeping featherwork adds graceful movement and dramatic height. Carefully balanced zigzag feathers create architectural interest, complemented by softly flowing accents that curve with elegance and motion.

Designed to turn heads beneath the Twin Spires, Karen LaRue blends classic romance with modern confidence. The rich red palette evokes passion and celebration, making it the perfect finishing piece for Oaks Day glamour or Derby Day distinction. Confident yet graceful, this design embodies the spirit of a woman who arrives with poise — and leaves unforgettable.

A signature showpiece for the Cherry On Top Derby Hats collection.
