TIME TO GET RACE DAY READY

The Spring Racing Carnival will be here before we know it, so now’s the time to start thinking about what you’ll wear trackside.

Derby Day, Melbourne Cup, Oaks Day or Stakes Day - whatever’s on your calendar, we’ll help you put together a look that feels like you and fits the occasion.

Book in early and we’ll make sure you’re ready for race day.

DERBY DAY

Keep it classic.

Black and white is the tradition, but that doesn’t mean playing it safe. Start with a sharp black, charcoal, grey suit or even houndstooth check suit - crisp white shirt, then add some personality with a textured tie, pocket square or subtle pattern.

It’s classic Derby Day dressing, done your way.

MELBOURNE CUP

A chance to have some fun.

Cup Day is the time to bring a little more colour into the mix. Try a three-piece suit, a subtle check or a textured jacket with tailored trousers. Add a great tie or pocket square to finish it off.

Polished, but with a bit more personality.

OAKS DAY

Soft tailoring & spring colour.

Oaks Day is made for lighter tones and relaxed tailoring. Think soft blues, greens and neutrals, with subtle patterns that keep things interesting. Seersucker, linen and linen blends are perfect for the warmer weather, yet versatile enough to wear well beyond race day.

Fresh, effortless and made for spring.

STAKES DAY

Relaxed, but still polished.

Stakes Day calls for a more relaxed approach to tailoring. Think a double-breasted jacket, soft linen or a less structured suit, paired with tailored trousers and an open-collar shirt.

Easy, comfortable and still sharp enough for the track. 

DON’T FORGET THE DETAILS

It’s the finishing touches that pull it all together.

Tailored shirts · Silk ties · Pocket squares · Tailored trousers · Jackets · Full suits

Already have a Houndstooth suit in the wardrobe? Bring it in and we’ll give it a fresh look for the carnival with a new shirt, tie or pocket square.
