Derby Day is all about timeless style in black and white, and few combinations capture it better than a perfectly tailored blazer and refined ivory trousers. The Shawn Blazer is a standout choice, crafted from 100% wool in a classic black hue. Designed in a tailored fit, it features a single-button closure, wide satin shawl lapel, and satin-covered detailing for a sleek finish. With its full-canvas construction, soft shoulders, and luxurious lining, the Shawn strikes the perfect balance between traditional elegance and modern finesse. On a day when many will be dressed in black suits, this look offers an elevated alternative, a way to honour the dress code while still standing out with understated confidence.

Pair it with the Gian Trousers in soft ivory fine twill, a breathable Italian linen-cotton blend that brings comfort and ease to a polished look. Tailored to perfection with a single reverse pleat, side tabs, cuffless hem, and extended waistband, the Gian offers a refined silhouette that feels effortlessly contemporary.

Melbourne Cup calls for classics, and nothing says classic like a finely tailored blazer paired with breathable fabrics that keep you cool under the sun. The Arlo Blazer, a summer essential crafted from a lightweight Italian blend of 60% linen and 40% cotton in fine twill. Designed with a slim fit, peak lapel, and a two-button closure, the Arlo offers a polished, modern aesthetic that’s not weighed down by unnecessary padding.

Pair the blazer with Gian Trousers, also in the same crisp, soft ivory fine twill fabric. The tailored fit, reverse pleats, and cuffless hem add an understated elegance that’s perfect for a day at the races. These trousers are designed to keep you feeling light and comfortable while ensuring you look sharp from every angle.

For the shirt, the Gus Formal Shirt in blue is a natural choice. Made from 100% pure cotton, it features a classic spread collar, single cuffs, and a clean no-placket front. Its easy-care finish ensures that even after a long day, you’ll look just as fresh as when you arrived.

Oaks Day presents the perfect chance to embrace colour and individuality while keeping your look refined and timeless. The Mateo Suit in fawn is a refined slim-fit design crafted from luxurious 100% Super 110’s wool with a subtle Prince of Wales check. Its transeasonal versatility, soft shoulder pads, and sharp two-button closure create a polished, modern silhouette that transitions seamlessly from daytime festivities to evening celebrations.

Paired with flat-front, cuffless trousers and thoughtful detailing, the Mateo offers understated sophistication with just the right touch of personality. Oaks Day is the one moment in the Spring Carnival to explore richer tones, and the Mateo Suit does so with effortless confidence and style.

Stakes Day offers the perfect opportunity to mix refined tailoring with a relaxed, summery vibe. For this, the Archer Blazer in blue is the go-to piece. Crafted from 100% breathable linen, this blazer is designed in a slim fit with a semi-structured silhouette, offering just the right amount of shape without compromising on comfort. The classic step lapel and two-button closure add polish, while patch pockets keep the look casual and versatile, perfect for transitioning from the sun-soaked tracks to evening celebrations.

Pair the blazer with the same Gian Trousers mentioned earlier for continuity. The lightweight linen-cotton blend fabric ensures you stay cool while maintaining a sharp appearance. You can also opt for a brighter shirt to add a pop of color; consider replacing the Gus Shirt with a bold, eye-catching shade of pink or yellow for an infusion of energy that matches the celebratory mood of the day.

Footwear is key when it comes to Stakes Day. The loafer shoe in brown suede is the ideal choice. Made in Italy, this loafer is both luxurious and practical, and the Blake stitch construction guarantees durability, while the premium suede finish ensures it pairs effortlessly with your tailored ensemble.
