  1. Hats +

    In the words of Borsalino, “A well-crafted hat not only complements an outfit, but elevates it, embodying elegance. In every stitch, brim, and curve, a hat tells a story of timeless sophistication and the art of impeccable dressing.”

    Style Tip: Consider the occasion when choosing the size and style of your hat; casual events may call for a more relaxed hat while formal occasions might require a more structured design.

  2. Blazer +

    Introducing the double-breasted blazer – it's an enduring piece that denotes formality and exudes a timeless refinement especially in the deft hands of Brunello Cucinelli’s Sartoria Solomeo. Their Autumn/ Winter24 collection seeks to capture the allure of a masculine style in its purest and most definite form.

    Style Tip: Double-breasted jackets tend to have a more traditional cut, so keep everything fitted and sharp to counteract that excess fabric. Strong shoulders, a nipped-in waist and a peak lapel will look suitably patrician.

  3. Shirts +

    As Swedish menswear brand Eton eloquently puts it: “When it comes to curating a sophisticated wardrobe, a shirt with the perfect fit is of upmost importance. It not only enhances your physique but also shows your understanding of classic style.” Which is to say that everyday doesn’t need to be ordinary, or that something that looks thrown on doesn’t have to be literally thrown on. Take this staple up a notch with Eton – “At Eton, we believe that a well-tailored shirt, with precise attention to collar and cuff details, shoulder seam precision, and sleeve length is the foundation of any distinguished wardrobe.”

    Style Tip: The collar should sit comfortably around your neck without being too tight or too loose. It should allow you to fit one or two fingers between your neck and collar. It keeps you looking sharp and polished throughout the day. Opt for a body fit that flatters your frame while allowing comfortable movement.

  4. Knitwear +

    As far as extra layers go, you really can’t go wrong with a knitted sweater. Elevated fabrics such as cashmere offer better temperature regulation, not to mention a softer handle. Great care, as always, in the selection of fabrics: cashmere, cashmere blends and camel convey timeless outerwear; also for knitwear the choice is on noble yarns and blends of refined wools. Within Herno's collection there are also deliberately unprecedented shapes and proportions, where the classics meet faux fur, camel, technical fabric, while the total looks see the new proposal of smooth velvet. - Herno

    Style Tip: Crewneck pullovers can be easily pulled on over most base layers, while knitted polo shorts offer a smart point of difference. Go-to brands like Herno have turned knitwear into a signature move.

  5. Cufflinks +

    Adding a stylish accent to any shirt, cufflinks are an often-overlooked wardrobe essential. They help secure the cuffs of “French” dress shirts together and serve as a minute extension of your fashion statement. According to renowned jewellery brand Tateossian, “Once a necessity crafted for the esteemed gentleman, the cufflink’s unique ability to express one’s sense of self is why it has been embraced as the ultimate accessory for every man.”

    Style Tip: Though not imperative, try to match your cufflink with the material of your watch and ring if possible, giving your outfit a sense of cohesion.

  6. Umbrellas +

    Regardless of whether it will rain or shine, a gentleman is never dressed without an umbrella. Fox Umbrella is the Rolls Royce of the umbrella world. Constructed of real rosewood, it’s a luxury piece that stands the test of time. The handle is made from a single piece of solid wood, so it doubles as a chic walking stick as well. “To obtain the high quality that we require, our customers have come to expect it’s still necessary to rely on the skill of hand workers rather than machines, and today the quality and attention to detail are still the hallmark of a Fox Umbrella.” - Fox Umbrella

    Care Tip: When storing your umbrella away, remember to avoid direct sunlight as the exposed fabric can fade over time. It’s also important to avoid keeping your umbrella in places such as porches, cars and on radiators as the changes in temperature and humidity can damage the handle.
