When deciding the colour of your suit it is important to know that the races are a special event where you can break the conventional rules. You probably wouldn’t choose to wear a lighter coloured suit to the office, or for a formal evening – but the races are your perfect opportunity to try something new.
Light colours such as cream suit darker complexions and can be accessorised easily. If you do decide to opt for a lighter coloured suit, we recommend sticking with a white shirt and contrasting it with a dark tie. Our selection of lighter coloured suits, as modelled by Chris Hughes are the ideal choice for Aintree and other race days. You can get the full look below, including the finishing touches and accessories.
If you are searching for a suit for the races that is slightly more traditional in style – we have you covered too! Our race day edit couldn’t go by without us showcasing our selection of tweed suits.
The rich and deep hue of the tweed collection gives a quintessential and charming look and at Cavani, we have a selection of tweed designs for you to choose from. If you are searching for a suit that transitions the gap between smart and comfortable – a suit from the tweed range is the perfect choice. Especially for Aintree, you need to consider the weather and tweed can provide you with enough warmth for the unpredictable British weather.

Dressing the part is a big part of race day, but there are a few tips and tricks that you can try out that will make you look even more refined and like the modern gentleman you are. At Cavani, we provide the sharp suit, but we are also here to give you advice that will take your look to the next level.
Our suits are sharp and designed to give you a masculine shape, but a suit should be custom to your proportions and to make sure that you look the part take your suit to a professional tailor.
