■ WELCOME
Who doesn’t love a wedding? The vows, the dancing, the speeches.
But it’s the small things, the unplannable moments, that make a big day a special one. Meaningful words from a parent, seeing your chosen other in their absolute finest, the shared jokes between old friends – no wedding is the same and it’s all the better for it. The point is, one size does not fit all, and that’s never truer than when it comes to choosing what you’ll wear. Our new wedding collection has something for every style, theme and budget. Not only that, but selected styles are available in two, if not all, of our services – ready-to-wear, hire and bespoke – so you can get the look you love any way it suits. And if that’s not enough, a selection of our most popular pieces now also come in three different fits so everyone’s happy and comfortable but there’s still a cohesive look for the whole wedding party.
All in all? Outfits sorted and more time for the moments that matter.
We’ll toast to that.

THE FINER DETAILS
Elegant extrasrequired for after-darkdressing
DRESS SHIRT Bibbed or pleated styles are the classics, while concealed buttons look streamlined
BOW TIE Elegant in its simplicity, you’ll never go wrong with a black silk bow tie
POCKET SQUARE White silk, never cotton. A minimal straight fold looks best, or try a fancier puff fold
CUFF LINKS A metallic glint or subtle flash of colour that should be just visible below your jacket cuff
DRESS SHOES Oxfords or loafers in sleek, high-shine leather add a polished endnote to eveningwear

HOW TO FOLD A POCKET SQUARE
The two-point fold
Lay flat in a diamond shape. Fold the bottom corner up to the top point and arrange the two top points to sit side by side.
Fold the bottom left corners inward until the bottom edge is roughly the width of your jacket pocket.
Fold the bottom right corners inward to match. Tuck the square into your pocket, keeping only the two top points showing.

MORNINGWEAR WITH MERITForget ideas of shapeless tails: keep an eye on these details for a refined finish.
BUTTONS Your jacket should be worn undone to keep its long lines clear – a neat fit through the waist and back will create a defined shape.
LENGTH The back of your jacket should finish at the back of your knee. Any longer or shorter will spoil its elegantly designed proportions.
CUFFS Jacket sleeves should finish in a clear cut at your wrist with 1-2 cm of shirt on show for a flash of cufflink when you raise your arm.
