Pairing a waistcoat and jeans or chinos may seem like a mismatch, but in this age of blending the formal with the casual, it’s a style that is hugely popular within the hospitality sector and we are seeing it everywhere. Here’s how to do it properly. Style Tip | Pair this suit with an eye-catching gold tie and tan brogues for a stylish wedding guest look. Rumour would have it that the grandad shirt's origins may well have only just predated your own grandfather. On the factory floor in the late 1920s, with flapping ties a safety hazard around heavy machinery, blue-collar workers were said to cut off the collars of their shirts. No wonder, then, that the style is particularly favoured among workwear brands today. When it comes to casualwear, almost anything goes with the collarless shirt. Wear a striped or printed number like the Grimwig with jeans. For warmer weather, a plain white grandad shirt like the Canning looks superb with cropped trousers such as the Morvan – just add in Chelsea boots when the weather turns cool. Perfect the vintage look in this luxurious wool blend tweed. This timeless three piece will stand the test of time and make you the best-dressed at every occasion.

The blazer is dual lined with a modern camo print, also appearing on the reverse of the waistcoat to make a statement when the blazer is removed.

Edging on the smarter side, the Larkin shoe features an elegant hand-crafted design on the leather upper and optional eye-catching contrast laces. This brogue style will add the finishing touch to your evening look. Painted by hand | Our leathers are painted, stained and burnished by hand meaning every single pair of Marc Darcy shoes are completely unique. Underneath the tweed waistcoat, we would go for an oxford shirt or, for a retro finish, a grandad collar. The main thing to note here is, if the shirt is plain, the waistcoat can have some print but if it’s a printed shirt, keep the waistcoat plain. Do not mix prints and make sure you colour match correctly. Murray is a stylish shoe that belongs in your collection. The combination of textures and materials bridges the gap between casual and smart making it an ideal shoe to take from desk to dinner. The perfect way to step out in style with something a little bit different. The Grandad shirt's origin is just over the Atlantic Ocean at New York in 1927. When a lady named Hannah Montague cut the collar off her husband’s shirt to wash it separately and so was born the detachable collar. As I mentioned previously, the Grandad shirt is historically very formal. Lots of different detachable collar styles were available including the 1920's classics of the Pin Collar or the Tab collar, no pioneered by the menswear brand Hawkins & Shepherd. Without the detachable collar buttoned in, the shirt has a plain banded type of collar, which gave birth to the grandad collar you'll find today.This heritage three piece will ensure all eyes are on you on the big day!
