If you’re going to the races, whether it’s Glorious Goodwood, Fontwell or one of the many events on the racing calendar this season, here’s how you can look the part.

It’s not just the ladies that look good at the races. The well-dressed man has many choices for getting kitted out in style. Andrew McDowall in Chichester has dressed race-goers for many years. The store specialises in traditional men’s and ladieswear.

Andrew Moore from McDowalls says, “You could go in a suit, fine wool sports jacket, lightweight jacket or blazer and chino trousers, depending on the dress code. We have silk ties to go with smart shirts, and cravats for a classic vintage look.”

Check on the weather forecast and choose a panama hat or even a felt trilby to set off the image, since it can get chilly at Goodwood. Layers work well, and you can always carry your jacket over your shoulder if you get warm.

As for shoes, invest in quality and they will look great, feel comfortable and last for many years. And to finish your look, we even have racehorse cufflinks!

There’s plenty for the horseracing enthusiast at Andrew McDowall. Unsure of what to wear? Our award-winning store has friendly advisors to help you choose an outfit to suit. We’re at 29-30 North Street, Chichester, PO19 1LX, or shop online. We look forward to welcoming you instore soon.
