 Derby Day (Saturday 4th November)

Derby Day is considered to be traditionally Black and White, and is one of the most elegant days on the Spring Racing Calendar. This is the day the men dress in traditional black and white with black tie’s and a white pocket square. The only exception to this rule is a dark charcoal or grey for those who want to depart from the norm and make a statement. We are noticing men are putting in more effort into their race day look in recent years and planning ahead is best to avoid a last minute rush. With a traditional black and white suit, charcoal, dark navy or grey you will invest in a timeless piece you will have for years to come.  If you love a punt and the atmosphere of Spring Racing, Derby Day is sure to be the most sophisticated and George & King will be sure to have you feeling confident in a made to measure suit and have you looking your very best.

 

Melbourne Cup (Tuesday 7th November)

The Melbourne Cup is the race that stops the nation and is recognised as the most prestigious two mile handicap thoroughbred horse race in the world.  This race is viewed by international race enthusiasts and punters the world over and is one of the few events where men have an opportunity to dress to impress have a little fun and stand out from the crowd.

George & King can ensure you will have a suit to fit your personality and flair on the day. Don’t be afraid of colour after all its spring and Melbourne Cup Day is an opportunity to be bold and impressionable. From light greys to bold blues let George & King help you add a little excitement to your look this Melbourne Cup.

Oaks Day (Thursday 9th November)

Oaks Day is traditionally known as ladies day but that is no reason for the men to stay away and not be included in all the fun! An occasion for glamour style and all things fashion it’s a day men can opt for something a little softer in suiting colour choices incorporating pastels and lighter tones into their shirting and pocket squares.  With all the strict rules when it comes to member’s race wear attire this is a time to let a professional tailor guide you to the best suiting options for each of the Spring Racing events.
