Wow them at Doncaster St Leger’s Gentleman’s Day on Friday 14th September 2018 in a snazzy suit.
Opt for something different to the office suit such as a checks or a bolder colour than the normal grey, black and navy. Double breasted is also more unusual than the single breasted jacket.
Bold check suits are more versatile than you think as they can also be worn as separates. Check jackets look smart casual with a pair of chinos and check trousers with a jumper and plain jacket.

Up your dapper game with a bow tie. The trick with a daytime bow tie is to make sure it complements the outfit rather than being the star of the show. The windowpane check suit and bow tie combination already makes a strong statement so keep colours and patterns on a low key.

Team your sharp jacket and debonair bow tie with a crisp white shirt or a subtle stripe shirt. The shirt in the jacket image (above) is the blue and red Reynolds double cuff shirt from New & Lingwood. Was £145 now on sale for £75.
