We just have to give our hats off to these A-list stars!

The 2015 Kentucky Derby is finally here and we're never quite sure if our favorite Hollywood celebs will deliver in the hat and fashion department year after year.

Well after some browsing and searching, we'd say everyone pretty much nailed it.

Olympic athletes Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir—who were in town to deliver their own signature coverage for NBC—wowed in their bright colorful ensembles.

Lipinski opted for a pink custom dress from Elaya Vaughn to match with her blond curls and braids. Weir, however, went all out with his red roses hairstyle.

"Today's Look: Mohawk @amorireyewear Ring @rox_jewelry Loafers @louisleemanparis for Isetan Suit Robert Collina Shirting @iroparis #ToTheVictorTheSpoils," he captioned on Instagram. "Accessories Game: Watch Rolex Ring @rox_jewelry Mic by Rob Hyland #GetYourRoxOn"

But wait, these two Olympians weren't the only athletes impressing us with their style.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady brought more than few bros to Kentucky for a day out. And while many of the guys looked spiffy, we couldn't take our eyes off of Rob Gronkowski.

Wearing a green tie, white fedora hat and a plaid suit, the tight end's ensemble almost made us forget he wears football jerseys in packed stadiums Sunday after Sunday. Well done, sir!

Athletes aside, some other recognizable faces put their best foot forward on the red carpet before any races began.

From Vanessa Lachey and Sarah Hyland to a united couple Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett, take a look at what the stars were up to on race day!
