Race Day Essentials

Exhilarating, magnificent and fascinating. That basically sums up our suit collection for race day. Oh, and watching the horses is pretty exciting as well.

As we all know The Epsom Derby & Royal Ascot are arguably the biggest race events in the world so we’ll leave the best till last. If you’re attending any race day leading up to this we’ve got a collection of outfits that will make sure you look the business on the day. It’s courteous to either wear a suit or formal jacket paired with chinos to a racecourse. Unfortunately fancy dress is usually frowned upon. Trust us, they’re doing you a favour.

Here are a few outfits we’ve carefully selected to make you look dapper but also keep you comfortable for the full day out, no matter the weather.

DKNY Slim Fit Blue Marl 3 Piece Suit
£379
Ted Baker Regular Fit Blue Textured Suit
£399
Moss 1851 Italian Cloth Tailored Fit Light Blue Suit
£249
Moss 1851 Tailored Fit Navy Linen Jacket
£149
Ermenegildo Zegna Grey Window Pane Jacket
£299

Now we can address the main events; The Epsom Derby & Royal Ascot. In the Queens Stand for the Epsom Derby & the Royal Enclosure for Royal Ascot, gents must wear tails with top hats & ties; no cravats allowed. If you’re in the grandstands any of the outfits above are more than suitable. Morning suits including top hats are quite expensive to buy ready-to-wear so hiring is the norm. We have two-piece tails available to hire from £55 + £8.50 peace of mind assurance, keeping it super affordable. Again, we’ve carefully selected tail coats that will make you look ever so suave but keep you comfortable.
Hire:
