Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter, Dannielynn Birkhead, has continued the family’s Kentucky Derby tradition once again. This time, however, Dannielynn debuted a fresh, new look special for the occasion, while maintaining a tradition that has a lot of meaning for the family. Dannielynn is the 17-year-old daughter of Smith, who died in 2007 at the age of 39, with entertainment photographer Larry Birkhead. She was the center of a highly publicized paternity case between Birkhead and attorney Howard K. Stern, who was Smith’s live-in partner at the time. With Birkhead declared Dannielynn’s biological father, he was granted sole custody of her.

"Dannielynn’s dress was inspired by her favorite character Hino Eiji, Kamen Rider OOO TaJaDor combo -she made me write that -because that character had the same shoulders as the design of the dress she found," Birkhead explained. "Hey whatever works, just trying to spend a little quality time as this weekend of traditions come to a close…" The Kentucky Derby carries a lot of significance for Dannielynn and her family, as it is where Anna first met Birkhead, at the event’s Barnstable-Brown Gala back in 2003. In the years following Anna’s passing, the father-daughter duo made it a tradition to always attend together.
