Although traditional attire for Glorious Goodwood Races, the wearing of the linen suit is not obligatory
but a jacket is. And remember even in hot weather you need to wear a tie or cravat with the jacket.
To make sure you still look stylish amongst all those dapper
linen suits, here are two blazers with a contemporary twist. Both from the menswear
brand 1... Like No Other. The brand specialises in unique prints and limited
editions.
Subtlety is the style of the bronze Navaho Herringbone linen jacket.
You may have to look twice to notice the slim piping around the lapels, pockets
and cuffs in a ditsy floral pattern. Blending in but more noticeable is the wider
trim on the bottom of the front opening. Check out the jacket lining in the brand’s
signature teapot tailor print. Fabric: 100% linen. Price £350
Keep it light with a pair of beige or cream chinos and a cotton shirt
in a pastel shade. Or add a touch of
wildness to a white shirt and have a hoot in this white owl print shirt from Topman’s
collaboration with designers Agi & Sam. Fabric: 100% cotton, Price £50
