PICKING UP

THE CHECK

Certain print motifs are

considered ‘heritage styles’,

like this windowpane check

in charcoal grey. They evoke

a sense of old-world charm

and elegance, which goes

a long way towards helping

you feign that luxury feel

without having to sell any

organs. Pair with a white or

grey shirt featuring a micro

motif at a contrasting angle,

a black tie and black shoes

• people will wonder where
  you’ve parked your Bentley.

ROLLING
IN DOSH

Some are wary of rollneck
sweaters, even more so when
they’re worn with suits.
However, the look alludes
to money, sage, sophistication
and a knowledge of culture.
And any man bold enough to
wear a rollneck with a suit has
clearly graduated beyond the
playground of suits and shirts.
