As the epitome of edgy, timeless cool, Mods just knew how to accessorise. In the 1960s, the streets were full of sharp tailoring, gleaming scooters, and forward-thinking fashion choices. In the middle of all that dapper? The sunglasses. 

Once the sun came out in the summer months (even when it didn’t), eyewear would become inseparable from the rest of the outfit. So, if you’re a die-hard fan of the movement that never truly went out of style, it’s time to stock up on the most iconic retro sunglasses to complete your wardrobe this summer! 

We’ve rounded up the list with the top vintage picks you need to boost your aesthetics and attitude—clean lines, geometric frames, and everything else in between. Choose your fighter, and channel 60s cool with the season’s sharpest shades and all the confidence of a true Mod.

The Round.

A favourite of John Lennon and Mick Jagger, the slim, circular frames were the defining shape of the '60s. Their minimalist design matches the effortless cool of the Mod era and goes with pretty much anything. It’s a solid retro twist on your summer look. 

However, for the best effect, we suggest you match your sunglasses to your face shape to ensure they’re working for your cool. Round shapes are best for oval and square faces, as the frame's roundness will soften your face's sharper angles and balance your proportions.

How to wear: Because of their soft nature, they go very well with sharp, structured blazers. The crisp polo shirt also looks downright dapper with a pair of classic round sunnies. 

The Geometric.

As Mod style edged into the psychedelic era, eyewear got much bolder. Square, hexagonal, oversized acetate frames were the stars of the show and a favourite of those who wanted to turn heads wherever they went. No words needed.  

These would be best suited for round and oval faces, as the frame’s geometry contrasts super with the softness of rounder features. Choose classics with black or tortoiseshell, or opt for a modern summer twist with white and transparent frames. 

How to wear: Match them with short-sleeved shirts, knitted polos, and sharp monochrome outfits (especially if the glasses have colourful, psychedelic frames) to make sure your look is graphic but still grounded. 

The Clubmaster.

You simply cannot talk about men’s mod sunglasses without mentioning the classic Clubmaster. To this day, it remains one of the most popular, timeless favourites of every Mod. The distinctive thick upper frame and the slimmer metal rims below exude the sleek, intellectual vibe that many Mods were going for. 

They’re best suited for oval, round and heart-shaped faces, but don’t be disheartened. They’re one of the most versatile pairs that could complement almost any other face shape. 

How to wear: For the ultimate summer cool, choose a Clubmaster with lightly tinted lenses in subtle hues. It’s a fresh twist on an evergreen vintage charm. And to make an even bigger statement, we suggest you wear them with another iconic, intellectual Mod accessory like narrow ties or braces. However, as fun as they are, knowing how to style braces is very important to achieving the right sophisticated look without going overboard.

The Aviator.

The aviator pair of sunglasses is for those mods who are not afraid to make an entrance. With iconic metal frames and teardrop lenses, this design was the rockstar of the era and counterculture icons alike. No other retro sunglasses bring such an attitude to the one who wears them.

Suitable for square faces that can benefit from the teardrop shape. It will soften the strong jawline and angular features. 

How to wear: To own the look today while still keeping it edgy, we suggest you look for aviators with coloured or gradient lenses, such as amber, green, and blue. 

The Wayfares.

These have been going strong since the 1950s, and today’s models still echo that unique thick-rimmed silhouette. They are bold. They are versatile. And they look great on most face shapes. Really, it's the go-to pair if you want to keep things timeless. 

Oval and square faces would benefit the most from Wayfarer’s slightly angular lines. These sunnies will help you maintain balanced proportions. If you have a square face, however, and you really want to get your hands on this design, we suggest you opt for ones that have softer edges to avoid harsh contrast on your face. 

How to wear: Pair them with slim trousers and loafers, and don’t shy away from mod accessories. A pair of funky, bright-coloured vintage socks will really help you nail the casual side of the era. Those smart-casual summer days and nights? Sorted.

The Coloured.

Welcome to the playful '70s, when mod sunglasses moved from the classic black shades to amber, yellow, blue, and even rose-tinted lenses and proved colour can also be edgy. Perfect if your summer plans include festivals, beach days and casual city strolls, a coloured pair of sunnies will help you stand out like a true Mod always should. 

How to wear: To keep the outfit authentic and sharp, stick to simple, monochrome looks so that your eyewear pops as the statement piece without overwhelming your crips swagger.

Mod’s 60s Style Sunglasses: Your Ultimate Retro Cool

If you’re a mod and think sunglasses are just an accessory, you still have lots to learn. That’s your instant injection of character and timeless style. And whatever aesthetics you might be leaning towards (sharp suits, laid-back casual look?), there’s a shape that’s just right for you.

A final tip from us is to invest in at least two pairs. One that’s bold and shows you know how to make an entrance, and a classic one for everyday wear. After all, a true Mod would cover all bases, not leaving room for any outfit mishaps. 

And if you’re ready with your favourite sunglasses, step into the sun and show the world what timeless, cool and suave rebellion means.

It all started with music. As it often does. 

Jazz, ska, two-tone, northern soul…By the late ‘70s, the Mod revival had swept Britain, thanks to Weller and the 1979 movie Quadrophenia. 

Soon, sharp suits and Italian cool swept the streets of Britain. The world of Mod was born. A youth culture driven by reinvention, refinement, and rebellion; a lifestyle that prioritised style, speed, and sophistication. 

And at the heart of that cool urban scene? The scooter. Vespas and Lambrettas weren't a means of transportation as much as a rolling expression of the ultimate edge. They became the Mod's scooter. 

But how did they manage to remain a constant in such a constantly evolving movement? 

But Why Scooters?

It's the 1960s. Owning a car is a luxury most families can’t afford; what's left for young people? But a motorbike? That's a different story. It was an achievable slice of sophistication. Affordable, fuel-efficient, and relatively easy to maintain, scooters gave working-class Mods the freedom to move through the city while looking cool as hell doing it! 

Mods, however, didn’t just choose any two wheels. Scooters were preferred over motorbikes because they symbolised the iconicity of Italian style with their sleek frames and glossy finishes. Where British motorbikes were bulky and utilitarian, scooters were refined, urban, and stylish. And Mods respect that. A lot.  

Practicality was also hidden in the reasoning. Scooters' enclosed body panels made them less likely to stain the rider’s pristine clothes with oil or road dust. Many mods even wore ex-military parkas while riding to keep their clothes neat and spotless. 

Much like their collection of suits and vinyl collections, the Mod’s scooter spoke volumes before they'd even said a word. 

Vespa vs Lambretta: The Scooter Icons of the Era

Okay. You're a die-hard Mod in the 1960s and ‘70s. You can finally afford a scooter with the money you've been saving for years. But what scooters did Mods ride? Vespa or Lambretta? Both Italian. Both iconic. Sounds like you can't go wrong — except you can. The rivalry between the two ran deep. 

Lambretta

A sharp, angular model designed by Innocenti, the Lambretta was the favourite of those who love the futuristic edge of the Mod movement. No wonder it often took the crown for its dapper look and stronger association with the youth rebellion. The sharpest dressers rode Lambretta. 

Vespa

Made by Piaggio, the Vespa had a rounder, more classic design that appealed to the more romantic side of the Mods. The ones drawn to the elegance of a well-tailored suit, the emotion in the music. 

With such strong brand loyalty behind their back, these scooters became tribal markers within the Mod scene. Badges of identity, one might say. 

Scooters? More Like Social Symbols. 

Beyond the extra layer of unquestionable cool they provided, scooters were also about belonging. Riding in packs on weekend ‘scooter runs’? That's an expression of group identity. A statement for everyone to hear. 

Picture it. Dozens, even hundreds, of immaculately dressed Mods cruising in formation to seaside towns like Brighton and Margate. Heads turning as they roll by. A unity of wheels. A stylish takeover of British roads. 

And within the Mod world itself, your scooter was a status symbol. The more chrome, the more mirrors, the sleeker the paint job, the higher your social capital. Customisation was a badge of honour every Mod carried proudly. Fog lights, aerials, whip-thin mudflaps, Union Jacks — every detail was dialled up to ten, so you can stand out in a sea of riders. 
Built to be seen, riding a retro scooter was like shouting to the world: ‘I am part of something dapper, and I look damn good doing it!’. 

Fashion Driven on Two Wheels

When part of your statement is a moving vehicle, your fashion choices are bound to follow suit. Practicality came into play, but so did style. Mod’s men's clothing meant looking sharp and staying sharp, rocking the look while you’re tearing through the streets on two wheels. 

Imagine bulky layers on such a sleek machine. That just won't do. But vintage trousers and neat, waist-length jackets? Yeah, that's more like it! The iconic clean lines and close cuts of the Mod silhouette proved perfect for keeping the look polished, timeless and scooter-friendly.

Enter the parka. A true staple of quality and craftsmanship. Once a military must-have, it was quickly adopted by scooter-riding Mods to protect their prized suits from the elements and road grime.

Footwear, too, had its moment. Chelsea boots and loafers had no laces to get caught and create a fuss when jumping on and off the scooter.

In the end, nothing about the Mod look undermined sophistication. Showing off at school, looking cool on your Vespa mod scooter, dapper head-to-toe? The Mods made it a thing. For them, every detail was intentional. Every outfit was ready to hit the road. 

Two Wheels, One Movement

To the untrained eye, a Mod's scooter might look like just another flashy ride. But if you know, you know that it represents so much more. Freedom machines, fashion statements, symbols of rebellion – all rolled into one. Lean, loud, unforgettable: that's the scooter. And that's why it became an icon. 

In a society that desperately wanted to cling to tradition, Mods used scooters to carve their own path in a fast and undeniably cool way. 

Even today, if you listen carefully, you can still hear the roar of vintage scooters, echoing with the spirit of a movement that never stopped riding. 

So, you’ve just received an invitation to a friend’s wedding that says ‘Dress code: Mod’, and you’re not sure what that's supposed to mean? Worry not. You’re in the right place.  

A Mod wedding ditches the usual floral and flowy looks in favour of the retro-inspired, iconic 60s vibe. It will be a wedding bound to be bold, playful, and have a whole lot of attitude. This basically means that if you’re a guest who loves to stand out (without outstaging the couple, of course), you’re going to feel right at home. 

But before that, you need the right look. Follow our guide as we walk you through everything you need to know about dressing the Mod way. Brace yourself for the era that brought us style, structure, and swagger. It's time to dive in. 

The Key Pieces You Need for a Mod-Themed Wedding

For the ladies, there ain’t no other staple that screams Mod louder than the shift dress. Maybe you recall it from Twiggy’s iconic look in the 60s. Remember her? Short hair, big earrings and that straight line bright-coloured short dress? The simple cut flatters the body without clinging and allows for freedom of movement, which you’ll be thankful for once the Mod music hits post-ceremony. For a daytime wedding, we advise you to go for pastel colours and floral patterns combined with block heels. If the invitations suggest a more formal setting, then dial up the glamour with rich jewel tones or a monochrome palette. And don’t forget the big, bright statement earrings! It's not the time to shy away from the drama.

For the gents, 60s-style weddings are your excuse to look razor-sharp with sleek, tailored suits. Now’s your moment to nail it. Sharply cut jackets and cropped trousers paired with a floral shirt? Don’t mind if we do. Such a clean outfit works very well in winter and autumn as well. Just swap the light fabrics for tweed and wool blends and the shirt for a bold rollneck, and you’re good to go! If the big event is scheduled for the summer, though, a satin finish and cotton or linen fabrics will be just dapper.

Vintage Style Wedding Outfits For Every Setting

Naturally, the perfect wedding guest look would also highly depend on the venue. Thankfully, the Mod movement is all about minimalist silhouettes, so you’ll be sure to match the dress code regardless of the setting.

Garden Weddings

A pastel A-line dress in pastel colours with chic flats will fit the vibe and instantly nod to the iconic 60s. Keep accessories to a minimum, though. Just add a simple floral clip to match the vibes. 

For the men, pair a Paisley shirt with vintage trousers and loafers, and you’ll be seriously stylish and comfortable all day long and ready for the late-night disco. 

Formal Black Tie

Formal vintage wedding guest outfits require a sharply tailored Mod suit and a monochrome dress in a luxe fabric like silk, satin or brocade. It’s an opportunity for you to explore vintage stores and find good examples of quality and craftsmanship. That way, you’ll truly steal the show.

Beach Wedding

Ah, the breeze! The fun! A Beach Mod wedding wants you to enjoy every moment of the hot summer day. To do so, trust cotton and linen blend shirts and tailored trousers to keep you fresh and cool throughout the event. Bright colours and patterns are very welcome to join you at the party as well. 

Ladies, bring out the sandals and the now-trending kitten heels. Gents -oversized sunglasses and a vintage watch will keep things sharp and classy at all times.

Winter Wedding

Take the opportunity to go wild with custom tweed suits, woollen coats, and richer fabrics like tactile velvet or corduroy. You could also layer a Mod-inspired fur overcoat or cape for warmth and some extra edge. And while at it, why not add some vintage braces over a crisp long-sleeved shirt?

Whatever the venue and setting, make sure you have fun picking out your retro wedding guest outfit. Hit the stores and the boutiques and look for retro brands and labels. All the better if you find a one-of-a-kind tailored piece. And don’t shy away from talking to the people who run these places. They do know a thing or two about the classic movement. Trust their expertise to find a great fit.

How to Accessorise Your Iconic Retro Wedding Look

If your structured, sharp outfit is the core of your look, accessories will be the soul that brings your inner Mod to life. Here’s how to channel that signature '60s spirit:

Footwear

Ladies, it’s time to bring out the Mary Janes and those shiny black boots made for walking. Chunky heels are peak Mod. Stylish, comfortable, and perfect for dancing the night away without breaking a sweat. For the gents, classic loafers or polished Oxfords will keep you looking sharp and feeling great from ceremony to last call.

Jewellery

When it comes to jewellery, remember that your job is to capture the playful vibe of the era. For women, chunky bangles, oversized geometric earrings, and bold cocktail rings will be perfect. And if you prefer something more subtle and classy, minimalist gold hoops and delicate chains will be just right. 

Men should stick to sleek watches and maybe go as far as a bold ring. If you’re feeling particularly brave, a patterned silk pocket square and cufflinks will be a superb detail to add to your look. The devil’s in the details, after all. And that’s why he always looks the part.

Final Touches Before You Set Off

Sure, Mod thrives on bold choices, but the trick is knowing when to rein them in. Let one statement do the talking and amaze with quality and patterns while keeping the rest of the elements simple and more refined. 

Mod is not just about attitude. The movement also prioritises comfort, and so should you. After all, weddings are long affairs, so make sure you feel as good as you look. You don’t have to choose one over the other. Make sure you can dance in your shoes and that your fabrics allow you to move freely. 

Attending a Mod-themed wedding doesn’t mean you can’t mix and match the old with the new. Have fun experimenting with pieces and expressing your personality in a way that feels right to you.  

Ready to Rock the Wedding?

If you’re hunting for the perfect vintage wedding guest outfit, then you need to learn to stand out by combining the timeless classics and playful energy like a pro. And if the dress code requires a throwback to the Mod era, fear not. Just take a trip back to history and get inspired by the unique, swinging ‘60s. 

Go ahead, embrace the retro spirit, and have fun putting it all together. You’ll show up looking dapper, like you were made for this Mod moment.

The time has come. The days are stretching longer and brighter, and the heatwaves are increasingly seeping into our reality. With summer approaching slowly but surely, it's time for that wardrobe refresh you've been postponing. If you're a fan of street style, t-shirts are probably your go-to, and you're feeling sorted and ready for the season.

However, if you're more of a timeless, sharp kind of guy who appreciates quality and classic appeal over fleeting trends, then you might need to consider some summer essentials beyond your usual tees.

Knowing what shirts to wear every season is the key to impeccable style. We're not just talking about a classic white—oh, no. We mean versatility, quality, and comfort that will truly make you look the part.

And when it comes to the best summer shirts for men, we might just know a thing or two. 

Cotton Shirts for Men: The Must-Have Staple

Unanimously, the king among summer shirts. And for a good reason. Cotton is soft, breathable, and moisture-absorbent. It's the piece that will keep you cool (literally and metaphorically) and comfortable at all times as the heat waves progress. When you're sipping on your beer in the pub under the blazing summer sun, it'll allow air to circulate freely, wicking away the sweat. Nothing like synthetic fabrics that will only trap heat and make things very stuffy and very sweaty way too quickly. 

The best cotton shirts out there are the ones with tightly woven fabrics like Egyptian and Pima cotton. You'll notice that they feel softer and, over time, last much longer. We also strongly suggest looking for a smooth finish and even stitching. That's what gives away good craftsmanship and superb quality.

Pair your cotton shirts with Prince of Wales Check trousers or classic blue jeans, and you've got summer on your side this season.

Breathable Shirts Beyond Cotton

Yes, cotton shirts may reign supreme, but they're definitely not your only choice this summer. 

Another favourite that'll offer you great fit, comfort and a sharp look is linen. That's the ultimate fabric for lightweight summer shirts and a great antidote to the unbearable heat. You get breezy airflow and quick drying time, so make sure you pack it with you on that weekend getaway to humid destinations. It'll be your life's saviour. Linen is an especially good choice if you want to achieve a more relaxed, effortless vibe. It goes very well with Sta-Prest and Dogtooth trousers. However, linen shirts do wrinkle a lot (more easily than cotton), so looking your best might mean keeping the iron close and ready. 

We also encourage you not to shy away from blends like cotton-linen and cotton-polyester mixes. There's something to say about the best of both worlds here. You can say these are marriages that balance softness, breathability, but also durability. And the annoying wrinkles will definitely be less of a problem. So consider these as another solid choice for your summer wardrobe. 

How to Spot Breathable Fabrics Worth Buying?

To help you nail the look, here are some useful tips to follow when you hit the shops:

• Keep your eyes peeled for natural fibres like cotton, linen, hemp, and blends with a high percentage of these materials. Anything else will make your summer days long and way too hot!

• Always check the weave. Looser ones allow for more airflow and are more breathable. Try to stay away from tight ones. 

• Touch the fabrics and notice how they feel. Good options will be light and airy in your hands, not heavy or coated. 

• Read. Read. Read. The product descriptions themselves will give you clues like ‘moisture-wicking’, ‘lightweight’, and ‘cool-touch'.  

It's definitely worth taking the time to find good-quality pieces made from various materials to keep your options fresh and functional throughout the season. 

The Return of The Short Sleeve

True, these used to be associated with casual outlooks, but those days are long gone. The short-sleeved shirt has made a comeback, and it's exactly what you need for comfort and effortless cool. Not only are they breathable and light to the touch, but they’re also an excellent choice for day-to-night plans.

The rule goes: when temperatures climb, so do sleeves. And worry not! You'll still look sharp and put together. A well-cut short sleeve will keep you dapper without breaking a sweat! Why? Because they're meant to suit many different summer styles:

• For casual outfits, trust Cuban collars, relaxed fits and, of course, bold prints. Weekend, holidays, and pub crawl with friends? Sorted. 

• If you're looking for something more smart-casual, though, do opt for tailored fits in solid colours, subtle stripes, and minimal patterns. 

• Finally, for very smart, work-appropriate settings, the crisp short sleeve in neutral tones or classic checks is your go-to. And together with lightweight vintage trousers? Unbeatable pair. 

Styling Tips for a Dapper Summer Look

You nailed the fabric. Now it's time to learn how to rock the fit. How you style your best summer shirts has everything to do with how great they look and feel.  

The first thing you need to keep in mind is to layer, but always do it with subtlety. Unbutton the short-sleeved shirt over a fine cotton vest or over a fitted tee. How very 90s of you! And if the weather allows it, meaning if you sense a cool breeze, an unlined blazer will help you get the structure you need to steal the show. 

Accessorising is another element of style you need to nail to complete that smart summer look. Details do matter, so don't overlook them! Roll the sleeves of a long-sleeve shirt, add a woven belt and a pair of classic sunglasses. You're timeless. Footwear also makes a huge difference. Loafers, espadrilles, and neutral trainers should be waiting for you by the door. 

Follow these, and you'll be rocking the refined summer style like no biggie.

Look Good & Feel Even Better

Dressing sharp in summer basically means having classic, breathable shirts at hand. The ultimate takeaway is to invest in quality fabrics that’ll feel like a second skin, welcoming the airflow. That way, you'll be cool, comfortable, and effortlessly put together, no matter the occasion or time of day. 

And it's not about quantity. All you need is a few good pieces with a great fit to stand the test of time and carry you through summer season after season. 

What is Mod? It’s cool scooters, edgy music, and a whole lot of attitude. All of this unites in the fashion, of course, giving us a style that’s clean of the excess noise and details. Leaving space only for what matters. The original cool, if we may say so. 

But honestly, pulling the iconic ‘50s and ‘60s eras off can be a bit pricey if you’re not careful and if you don’t know the ins and outs of dressing vintage like a pro. You don’t really need a fat wallet to channel the Mod sophistication. After all, Mods didn’t think that cool is about the money. 

All it takes to look the part without breaking the bank is some strategy, smart shopping, and some solid advice from the experts. 

And that’s us. So buckle up and come along for a ride!

The Mod Uniform Staples You Need to Meet

Heard of a capsule wardrobe? That thing where you make sure you have some quality essentials hanging around, so you can mix and match till the end of time? Dressing like a mod on a budget is going to be a bit similar: stocking up on the building blocks of the movement and combining your men’s vintage clothing pieces for endless fits. 

Think of it like a must-have checklist:

Slim-cut Trousers & Jeans

It’s all about the fit. Slim-cut, straight-leg trousers that taper just above the ankle? Yeah, that’s the one. However, there’s a differentiation to be made. We’re talking sleek, not skinny. That’s reserved for the ‘00s. Oversized and baggy is a no-go as well. A tailored, dark pair of fitted jeans is the kind of essential piece that’ll work well with almost everything else for casual day outings with friends and night pub crawls. 

Polo Shirts

A die-hard classic. Cool, clean, the polo shirt is it. And just edgy enough to be iconic. When you go out to hunt for one of those, you may quickly get distracted by big, fancy brands selling you the original polo. So, try to keep your focus on affordable retro clothing here. All you have to do is rummage the racks for structured collars, good quality, and subtle branding. Mods were never into loud labels or fat prices. 

Button-down Shirts

There’s street casual, and there’s Mod casual. And the latter could also be described as smart-casual. That being said, the white button-down shirt should be your bread and butter. Of course, you can also dip into the playful part of the culture and stock up on checkered, gingham, and vertical stripes models.

Harrington & Trench Jackets

An absolute must-have, the Harrington is the outerwear of the movement, hands down. Easy to wear, eternally sharp, and stylish, you can never go wrong with one in your wardrobe. However, cooler weather does exist, and to be prepared, you'd better have a classic vintage parka lying around for an edgy rainy-day look. 

How to Spot Mod-Approved Pieces in the Wild

You’ve got your checklist of staples ready, and now you’re wondering, 'Yeah, but where do I actually buy Mod clothes nowadays?' and possibly, 'And I still have to pay for them.' Fair point. But here’s the thing: you can be smart about it. You just need to know what to look for.

Keep your eyes peeled for sharp silhouettes, crisp lines, slim cuts, clean collars, bold prints, and retro colour palettes: navy, burgundy, and mustard. But honestly? Anything with an effortless sense of cool can channel Mod, even if the piece isn’t straight out of the ‘50s or ‘60s.

A knit polo shirt that fits just right? That’s a win. A pair of loafers with a slightly squared toe? Grab them. Mod is a vibe. Not a label. Trust your instinct, think outside the box, and don’t be afraid to experiment. Some of the best Mod pieces aren’t labelled as such. They just look the part.

Buy Less. Choose Well. Invest in Quality.

There are some pieces of clothing, however, that we’d advise you to invest in. If 70%-80% of your wardrobe is filled with authentic vintage pieces, that’s great, but some essentials have to be able to withstand time and wear for longer. 

Invest in a good-quality overcoat, clean leather shoes or boots, and a fitted white shirt that can hold its shape after each wear and wash. 

Sometimes, when on a budget,  affordable retro clothing means making a smarter investment here and there rather than filling your space with cheap trends. Longevity, man. It’s a very Mod thing. 

Mod Doesn't Just Thrive in the Past

Another good and budget-friendly thing about dressing like a  Mod is that the style loves contrast and doesn’t shy away from modern elements. Wondering whether you should wear your vintage blazer with a modern tee? Go for it! Second-hand loafers with high-street jeans? 100%. 

Mixing and matching keeps things fresh and modern, and that’s totally on brand for the movement. Channel that evergreen, rebellious spirit by also adding as much of your personality to the fit as you want. 

Mod fashion and vintage style have always stood for individuality, craftsmanship and cultural grit. Both are all about standing out and standing apart, dressing with intention, and drawing on the past to create something uniquely and sharply present. 

Shopping locally taps into that same spirit. On top, you get curated vintage rails, shopkeepers who know their two-tone from their tonic suits, and it's not just good for your wardrobe, it's a way to stay connected to the culture, history and community that shaped the style that represents you in the first place. 

But let's dive deeper into the importance of shopping local and how it benefits you and your unique style. 

1. Shop Locally for Timeless Gear with Real Stories

If you're a fan of quality fashion, you've probably already noticed how local vintage stores curate rare, handpicked pieces you won't find in any fast-fashion racks. 

Local vintage shops are goldmines for blokes chasing individuality. Unlike cookie-cutter offerings of mainstream fashion, these collections are made with intention. Every piece is chosen for its cut, condition and personality. You're not just picking a new shirt, you're uncovering a slice of style history. 

Just picture this: a tailored slim-fit blazer from the 1960s with a sharp lapel and a label from a long-gone London tailor. It's a catch! Or a paisley shirt that looks like it walked straight out of a Small Faces gig. These pieces don't just look the part. They’ve got stories to tell. Because there's something undeniably powerful about knowing your outfit had a life of its own before it reached you. And that no one else is likely to be wearing the same thing. 

For the diehard lovers of mod and retro fashion, shopping vintage and discovering hidden fashion treasures is part of the thrill and a way to celebrate craftsmanship, individuality and nostalgia. All stitched in the seams. 

2. Learn from Experts Who Just Get the Look

When you walk into a local shop, you're not just greeted by a rack of clothes. You're welcomed by people who live and breathe vintage style. These people aren't pushing trends, they're curators, collectors, and lifelong mod fans just like you. (They really know the difference between a '70s wide lapel and an authentic '60s cut.)

So, if you need some help to build a capsule of mod staples, balance bold prints or nail your new slim trousers with a vintage jacket, you can bet these local experts are hands-on, honest and refreshingly passionate to help you out.  Many will even offer in-house alterations, style advice and tips on how to make vintage and modern pieces work together. 

Trust us. Enter one of these local businesses, and you'll see that it's a far cry from the soulless changing rooms and generic sizing charts you're used to. Sustainable clothes shopping means getting the personalised experience from someone who understands the complexities of the culture, not just the clothes. 

3. Shopping Locally Is Higher Quality & Lower Carbon Footprint

What you get with vintage is clothes that are made to last. The piece you'll find in local vintage shops was made in a time when quality actually mattered more than quantity and fleeting trends. Think sturdy zips, rich wool blends, sharp tailoring, and natural fibres that just age beautifully. You won't have to throw these ones away for years. They've already stood the test of time. 

There are also the environmental benefits of shopping locally to add to the mix. It means you're making a conscious choice. No global shipping routes, no excess packaging, no warehouses full of overproduced stock destined for landfill. Vintage fashion is more sustainable and environmentally friendly because it's inherently circular. Pre-loved pieces get a second life, and your carbon footprint shrinks with every smart buy you make. 

We're talking clothes with integrity. Bought with intention.

4. Sustainable Shopping Supports the Scene & Keeps Mod Alive

Every fan of mod fashion knows that it's not just about the clothes. It's about the culture. Scooters and soul music are sewn into the clean lines and sharp tailoring. This lifestyle and fashion is born from rebellion, creativity and belonging, and the reason it still breathes is the scenes, stories and people keeping it alive. 

So, when you shop vintage locally, you're not just buying a new look, you're investing in the community. You might not have thought about that, but it matters. Independent shops are often run by people who've actually lived the mod ethos or have grown up surrounded by it. These are the people hosting all-nighters, curating in-store playlists, swapping style tips and passing the knowledge. When you buy from them, you're living in the mod world, keeping these places and the culture thriving.

In a way, it's like passing the baton. With each sale, conversation, and shared reference, mod fashion is kept visible, relevant, and exciting for the new generation. 

5. Forget Trends. Invest in Timeless Style.

While fast fashion feeds and thrives on trends that vanish as quickly as they appear, local vintage shops deal in timelessness. How cool is that? That's where enduring staples like slim-cut trousers, Harrington jackets, and crisp button-downs line the rails, waiting to become part of your personal uniform. 

And you know well what mod fashion dictates: quality fabrics, clean silhouettes, and subtle statement pieces. It's against following the crowd (like fast fashion does). Shop sustainably to build a timeless wardrobe of garments that never date. On the contrary, they'll adapt. One great vintage coat can carry you through season after season. A perfectly cut Bomber jacket can still turn heads in 2025.

And the best part? Men's vintage clothing gets better with each wear. So, instead of cycling through disposable looks, choose to build a collection that's bursting with soul and history.

Every self-respecting man knows that packing for a holiday simply doesn't mean throwing half your wardrobe into a suitcase and hoping for the best. There's a way to pack smart and do so with style. 

Have you seen a Mod with wrinkled shirts, bulging bags and mismatched outfits? No, you haven't. Not on their watch! The key is to travel light without compromising on style. And no, it's not impossible. With the right strategy, you can step out of the car, the train, or the plane looking just as sleek as you did before you set off. 

In this guide, we'll teach you how to pack your suitcase like a pro – lightly and efficiently, with all the space available for style. Trust us, and you'll be ready to look dapper wherever your destination takes you.

To Know Your Destination Is to Know Your Wardrobe

Everything begins with context, and style is no exception. Your city break in Rome will demand a very different wardrobe from a ski trip in the Alps. So, before you even reach out for your suitcase, take a moment to consider the following: ‘Where am I going?', 'What will I be doing there?’ and 'What's the weather going to be like?', ‘Is there a dress code?'.  

Fashion experts suggest building a capsule wardrobe that's specifically meant for the location and your itinerary. Tropical spots? Think lightweight and linen. Urban adventures? Well, what better place to show off your best Mod clothing pieces?

You'll see, packing becomes a whole lot easier when every item serves a purpose.

Plan Outfits, Not Items

The biggest mistake we men make when packing? Tossing a random item 'just in case'. Only to never wear it and fill up space. Instead, take the time to plan your outfits in advance. You'll save a ton of space, avoid decision fatigue on holiday and pack the pieces you'll actually wear. 

One of the holiday packing tips experts swear by is the mix-and-match formula. Lean on timeless neutrals like navy, white, beige, grey, and black. Then, layer one or two statement pieces to show off your personality. A bold patterned shirt or a bright-coloured tank can go a long way. 

However, to keep things cohesive and avoid any luggage bulk, stick to a 3-colour palette. Everything will work together, we promise you!

Don't Forget the Versatile Staples

Limited space? Versatility is key. The smartest travellers don't pack more. Oh no. They pack better. Focus on pieces that work across different settings. From daytime exploration to evening dinners. 

Here's what you need: 

• White shirt – effortlessly smart and sleek. Button it up for dinner or throw it over swimwear. 

• Light Sta-Prest trousers – lighter than jeans and easy to dress up or down. A true travel essential.

• A vintage jumper – timeless and endlessly adaptable. Pair with the trousers, layer under a blazer, or wear solo. 

• Lightweight jacket – a Harrington, overshirt, or light bomber offers just enough warmth and structure, without bulk.

That's it. That's your holiday packing list for men. The staples are timeless for a reason, and there's no better place to discover their versatility than on a trip. 

Packing Shoes. The Smart Way

We all hate this part of packing. Shoes simply take up too much space in your luggage, so you must choose wisely. The experts agree: stick to two or three versatile pairs that cover all the basics of your activities. 

Here's the winning formula: 

• Casual trainers or loafers – perfect for daytime exploring and casual dinners. Go for neutral tones that pair easily with your wardrobe.

• Beach slides or sandals – lightweight, laid-back, and ideal for poolside lounging or seaside strolls.

• One smart option – think minimalist leather sneakers or compact dress shoes, which can elevate an evening look without taking up half your suitcase.

Pro tip: Always use shoe bags to keep the rest of the clothes clean. And make use of the space! Stuff your shoes with socks, belts, and any other small accessories to save on space. This will also help keep the shoes in shape.

Accessorise Like You Mean It

This is where style means intention. The right accessories can instantly pull your look together and make it sleeker, especially when your outfit is based on neutrals or timeless staples. 

No need to overdo it, though! In fact, it's best to keep it simple but considerate. We're talking essentials again:

• Sunglasses – functional and effortlessly cool. Go for a timeless shape that suits your face. Very Mod of you!

• Watch – a classic timepiece adds polish, whether you're in a linen shirt or a tee. It's even better if you have a vintage one hanging around.

• Belt – you only need one versatile, well-made belt that works with both smart and casual outfits. Black or brown is best, depending on your shoes.

Here, we also need to mention your luggage. Yes, it is also part of the accessories. A sleek backpack, crossbody, or leather weekender will give you that vintage classic edge that will steal the show at the airport.

Master the Art of Rolling and Layering

Now that you've got everything set and ready, it's time to pack it. Again, don't just throw things in the bag. The best tips for packing a suitcase insist that it's important to know when to roll, when to fold, and how to layer. This is going to make all the difference between arriving with crisp outfits and a bag full of creased chaos. 

Rolling is best for casual items like T-shirts, knits, and swimwear. Roll them neatly and you'll save space and minimise wrinkles. Folding, on the other hand, is best for pieces with more structure, so shirts, trousers and jackets should be folded, not rolled!

Pro tip: If you'll be attending a more formal event, you can preserve the sharpness of your blazers and shirts by placing a tissue paper or dry-cleaning plastic between the folds. This will prevent deep creasing, so you're always dinner-ready. No iron required!

Packing Like a Pro

The well-dressed man knows how to travel light, being prepared for anything and with style, regardless of whether he's taking a spontaneous day trip or heading to a more formal dinner event. 

Remember these travel packing tips for your next holiday or weekend escapade. Your luggage will be streamlined, ready with killer outfits and some extra space for souvenirs. After all, good taste never takes a holiday.

We’re often asked about what we consider to be the heart of the Mod movement and style. And every time, without a doubt, we’d answer: the trousers. 

Don’t believe us? Recall the narrow cuts worn by Paul Waller and the sharp silhouettes seen in Quadrophenia. Mod trousers have always been more than just a functional garment. They are a statement. Clean lines, bold patterns, slim fits, pressed creases, and hems that hit just above a sleek, polished shoe.

Sounds great, doesn’t it? But how to buy trousers that fit? How to choose the perfect pair? We got you. This guide is your handbook for finding the perfect trousers, whether you’re new to the scene or simply refining your wardrobe.

It All Begins with the Silhouette

The Mods have said it. A great silhouette is everything: neat, clean and confidently understated. It’s about precision above everything else. Trousers should be slim but not skin-tight, with a tailored shape that flatters without trying too hard. 

Baggy legs and sloppy hems are a no-no. If you want to find a pair of trousers that suit you, what you need to look for is structure and intention. Search for a length that hits just above the ankle or grazes the top of your shoes. Creases should be sharp and defined, and not just for formal events but as part of your attitude. You want trousers that mean business, even if you are going on a casual stroll. 

Take it from the Mod culture, and forget loud patterns and oversized fits. It’s all about restraint. And the goal? Looking effortlessly put together without trying too hard. 

Less is more, always.

The Top Must-Have Types of Men’s Trousers

When buying trousers, you need to consider the convenience of timeless pieces. A good pair (or pairs!) will be one that not only looks good on you but also be one you can rotate season after season and occasion after occasion. 

Here are our top picks: 

Sta-Prest Trousers

Originally made by Levi’s, Sta-Prest (stay pressed) trousers are the ultimate pair you need if you prefer a low-maintenance but sleek style. They are designed to keep their creases without ironing and offer you that unique, crisp, just-stepped-out look that you’ll love. And the best part? They’re ideal for both day and night outings.

Tonic Trousers

Nothing catches the light quite like a pair of tonic trousers. They have that signature two-tone sheen that makes them shift seamlessly between hues. If you would love a bold, distinctive style that will keep you in the centre of attention, tonic trousers are the ones for you!

Corduroys

Back in fashion in recent years, cords bring a unique warmth and texture to men’s trousers, making them a particular favourite for the winter months. To nail the look, go for slim cuts in rich retro tones like burgundy, mustard, and forest green. 

A secret styling tip from us: Pair them with a Harrington jacket and a rollneck. 

Thank us later!

Good Ol’ Tweed

A good old-time classic you can never go wrong with is the Tweed, of course. It’s ideal for the cold months, adding a bit of rugged sophistication and edge that will fit every man. Pair them with a smart polo or a fitted jumper, and you’ll have a well-tailored look.

Prince of Wales

Finally, the ultimate Mod icon: bold, edgy and sharp. With that signature checkered pattern, the Prince of Wales is a favourite that will give you that dapper je-ne-sais-quoi like no other pair could! They’ll work great with a woollen jumper and a crisp button-down shirt. And if you want to look exceptionally striking, then put on those brogues or loafers and hit the town!

If you want to always look your best, be ready for any occasion,  and never go wrong when you buy men’s trousers, then invest in timeless designs. They will elevate your wardrobe like no modern trend could.

The Materials That Matter

When shopping, it’s not just the silhouette and model you should be looking for. It’s equally important to consider the material the pair of trousers you’re buying is made of. We highly recommend that you choose trousers that are not too flimsy or overly casual. Ones that can hold their shape and bring the best out of your body type. 

Wool blends are among the best materials for trousers. They are always a refined, solid choice for smarter looks and cold winter days. They drape well, keep their sharp creases, and are ideal for more sophisticated occasions. The quality of the material, of course, is exceptional. 

Another type to keep your eyes on, especially if you need a pair for day-to-day wear, are those made of quality cotton or sturdy poly-cotton blends. Comfortable but crisp, they have enough weight to hold a good, tailored shape. 

Whatever you do, avoid overly stretchy or thin fabrics at all costs. Yes, a touch of elastane will add some comfort, but if it’s too much, the structure will crumble after two or three wears. 

Think about it. Would a self-respecting Mod allow for saggy knees or sloppy seams?

Getting the Fit Just Right

Fit is just as important. No matter how great the fabric or brand of your trousers is, if they don’t sit right with you, the whole look will fall apart. 

Start by considering the waistband. It should sit naturally at your waist. Not too low or too high. It should feel secure without a belt, though a slim one can still be added for a sleek touch. 

Legs should taper gently, not too tight, and never baggy! The hem is also crucial. It has to either skim the top of your desert boots or hover above the ankle. Anything pooling at the bottom is a no-go. 

But hey, if you’ve found a vintage gem that’s almost perfect, but the fit could be better, don’t write it off yet. A bit of tailoring can go a long way. If everything else checks the box, you can adapt the fit later. It’s still a catch!

How to Care for Your Trousers

Now that you’ve found your new favourite pair, you want to make sure it lasts you as long as possible. Here’s how to apply the proper care routine that will make all the difference between looking sharp and looking shoddy.

First Rule: Invest in a good iron that will keep your creases polished and sharp. Take a few minutes to press them back in after each wash or wear. 

Second Rule: Delicate fabrics, wool, and tonics should go to dry-cleaning. No home washing. You’ll ruin them. 

Third Rule: When you need to store your trousers for the season, don’t just fold them and toss them in the drawer. Hang them on clip or bar hangers to keep the crease intact and prevent wrinkling. You’ll appreciate that you took the time when you have to take them out again in several months. 

If the pair of trousers is great, it will last you years. As long as you treat them right!

The Final Stitch

A good pair of trousers is a staple for every man. Especially one that lives like a Mod. They’ll set the tone for the rest of your look, anchoring everything with sharp lines, clean fits and undeniable style. 

So next time you buy men’s trousers, prioritise quality, fit and timeless appeal over the fleeting trends. You should stand out by staying true to yourself and timeless classics. And whatever your choice of trousers, remember: 

Stay sharp. Stay original. Stay Mod. 

It is a role of great responsibility and honour. You stand by the groom, your closest friend's side, as they go through this defining moment in their life. You share happiness, offer support and carry out important duties. In the middle of all these aspects of the role of a best man is also the question of how you look. 

You're an essential part of the wedding atmosphere. Therefore, looking sharp is key. You have the difficult task of complementing the groom without overshadowing him but still looking your best. 

Basically, on this day, there will be a lot of expectations surrounding you. From the suit you wear to the accessories you choose, your appearance has to reflect the tone of the event. So, what should the best man wear? We are here to tell you just that!

How to Choose the Best Man's Wedding Outfit

Before you even begin to consider the outfit, you need to understand the theme and location of the wedding. These hold the key to your look as they have to fit the atmosphere of the place. 

Here's our advice on how to assess the situation: 

Check Formality Levels

Formal: If the happy couple has chosen the highest level of formality, the black tie wedding, then you'll be expected to wear a tuxedo. Check with the groom if he's going to wear one. If he does, you should, too. To play it safe, stick with the classic black, navy, and dark grey suits with a bow tie and well-polished shoes. A classic never goes out of style. 

Semi-formal: These weddings will give you some breathing space. You can go for a well-tailored suit in lighter colours like charcoal or even pastel shades. Check if the tie or cravat is optional, as they might well be. A classic long-sleeved shirt is expected, and you may even have the opportunity to choose a patterned one.  You can even have your choice with shoes - think Oxford or smart loafers. 

Casual: If your friend is one of these laid-back people, well, you win at life! For a casual wedding, you can choose a light suit or even a dress shirt and trousers. No tie. You are free! Loafers are a great option here as well. This is the perfect occasion to also introduce some bold accessories. Experiment with socks, braces, and square pockets in different patterns and colours to see what works best. But not all at once!

Consider the Location

Beach: Comfort will be key here. Not at the price of style, of course. Think pastel colours, linen shirts, loafers and dressy sandals. A tip from us is to always opt for breathable material. Thank us later.

Garden: Garden weddings allow (dare we say even expect) you to incorporate some floral accents into your outfit. A light-coloured, well-tailored suit with a tie will keep things timeless and classy.

Ballroom: Such a formal setting requires some formal touches. Consider adding cufflinks or a pocket square. A sleek dress watch will completely steal the show. 

Don't be shy and ask the groom all about the formality, setting and expectations. A best man's wedding outfit relies heavily on these factors. 

Coordinate with The Groom

You are the best man. Your sole job is to complement the groom's look. Without overshadowing it. Here's how to dress for a wedding to support the groom at his moment: 

If the groom wears a tuxedo, so should you. If he's opting for a suit, you follow him with the same choice. From then on, things start to differ. If he chooses bold colours, you need to keep your outfit more natural so as to avoid any clashing. 

Of course, weddings are not only formal but also fun events where family and friends share inside jokes and the happy couple's joyful moments. It is very likely that your best mate wants to include some fun, colourful details in your outfits. Absolutely go for it, but make sure you do it more subtly so as not to steal the spotlight. 

Finally, we advise you to make sure your communication with the groom remains open til the very day of the event. Ideas will fly left and right, and new requests will come up. Make sure you always stay coordinated on every outfit detail.

What Does the Best Man Wear?

The answer may be daunting but your options as a best man are many. Everything from shirt to accessories plays an important part to your look. 

The Right Shirt

White: A classic white is a sharp choice that will pair well with everything else your outfit requires. Safe but so dapper!

Off-White or Light Pastels: If the wedding requires a softer, warmer look, consider choosing an off-white or light pastel shirt. Most often, it will be best for beach and garden weddings.

Subtle Patterns: You can introduce Paisley or checked shirts. These will add texture and visual interest to your suit. Don’t go overboard, though.  

Tie, Cravat, or Bow Tie?

Ties are perfect for modern and semi-formal weddings. Check with the groom, as they might be optional. Go for solid colours or subtle patterns, but avoid bold shades at all costs unless specified by the man of the show. 

Cravats are best for vintage weddings and more formal events. They are elegant, old-school and edgy. If this sounds like the vibe, go for it! 

Finally, bow ties are mainly only appropriate for black-tie weddings. It's a super sharp, polished appearance that complements tuxedos perfectly.

Shoes

A best man is known by the details, starting with his shoes. Or so they say. Oxfords are a classic that pairs well with formal events. But if the vibe calls for something more relaxed, you are free to go for brogues. They are a good option to add some personality without sacrificing elegance. And loafers, of course, offer unmatched comfort for casual weddings. 

Tip: Do remember to polish your shoes before the wedding and make sure they are in top condition. Dirty or scuffed shoes will completely ruin your look. Take your time to prepare them for the big day. You won't regret it. The devil is in the details.

Accessories 

This is your chance to show your personality. (Subtly, of course!) Accessories are your finishing touches, taking your best man's outfit to the next level. 

Watches: A classic is the best choice here. Something sleek and sophisticated, ideally silver, gold or leather, will be your cherry on top!

Belts: As a rule of thumb, belts should always match the shoes in both colour and material.

Socks: Socks can be a fun way to add a pop of colour or even a quirky pattern. You can use them to hint at an inside joke with the groom and bride.

Braces: To add a bit of a personal touch, you can step up your suit game with some colourful braces (but always check with the groom). It's a nod to a vintage classic that will reflect your edge and unique personality.

Final Touches

Looking sharp is more than what you wear on the big day. It's about how you show up for your best mate on this most important day of his life. Make informed choices, coordinate with him and pay attention to every detail. This way, you will look your best and feel your best throughout the day. 

You will have a lot on your plate, but remember your key role: to stand out just enough. Set the perfect balance, and you will have set the tone for a celebration to remember. 

What’s left now is to keep it cool and enjoy the event. You have everything in check to make this day unforgettable!

Whether we like it or not, ageing is that natural process we will all face. Of course, it doesn't mean we lose our spark, appeal or sense of style. In fact, there is definitely something undeniably powerful about embracing every stage of life with confidence. Style, after all, isn’t about chasing youth—it’s about expressing your energy, individuality, and spirit, which are completely ageless.

However, we are only humans and just as natural as it may be to age, so it is our desire to look younger. The good news is it doesn't always require drastic measures. Quite often, how we present ourselves through our style is enough to take several years off our looks. 

That’s where this guide comes in: to help you craft a wardrobe that radiates modernity, ease, and ageless cool.

And what better source of inspiration than the iconic Mod movement? Its clean lines, playful attitude, and bold silhouettes remain timeless and proof that true style doesn’t age, it evolves. So, if you're ready to channel that effortless Mod edge while staying true to yourself, let’s dive in.

Fashion: The Way to Look Younger

Style is a visual language, and just like any other form of language, it communicates vitality, confidence and your unique energy. Here are some tips you can follow to help you appear younger, whatever your personal style is:

The Power of the Right Fit

We can't stop emphasising this because it is truly that important: fit is everything. Clothes that are measured for you, neither too tight nor too loose, create a clean, sharp look that will highlight your best features and frame, therefore making you look more youthful. When shopping, look for pieces that hug your body, make you feel comfortable and complement your frame.

Colour Choices

Colours are another feature of style that can affect your overall appearance. Go for bright, vibrant colours that will energise your look and draw attention to your face. 

Avoid muted or darker shades, like brown or grey, as these will make you appear older and diminish your vibrancy – the key factor reflecting your youthfulness.

Remember these two styling tips to look younger when you next go shopping to help you make more youthful choices.

Essential Pieces for a Youthful Look

Before you rush to refresh your wardrobe, we have some tips and tricks up our sleeves to help you pick up the right pieces that will keep you fresh, young and energetic. All timeless staples, of course. If they can beat time, so can you (with their help).

The Polo Shirt

Versatile. Timeless. Modern. The polo shirt strikes that perfect balance between casual and smart. We are talking full dapper with minimal effort. 

The key to unlocking youth with the polo? You guessed it: fit. It has to hug the body without being too tight or loose. The right one will immediately sharpen your silhouette, highlight your posture and give you a sense of confidence. 

For the best effect, we advise you to pair it with slim-fit trousers or a good old classic pair of jeans. Truly the best way to look younger.

Rollnecks

Iconic since the '60s, the rollneck is that stylish jumper that's going to turn heads wherever you go. Sleek, minimal and so Mod! It's great for both day and night. Wear it under an edgy monkey jacket or on its own. It will add an air of timelessness while still remaining casual enough to wear it to the pub with friends.   

Bold Geometry

What is youth? Bold and colourful. So, what better way to exude this than opting for striking prints and experimenting with geometric patterns? Stripes, checks – you name it! They will offer you a fun twist to any outfit and make you stand out in the crowd.

Why not start with a striped shirt or checked trousers? You will instantly see the change to a more dynamic and fresh look.

Styling Tips to Make You Look Younger: Accessories

Never underestimate the power of details. Accessories won't just complete your outfit; they can communicate dynamism, edginess and youthfulness. Here are our suggestions on how to use them:

Eyewear

Iconic since the Mod era, glasses are another staple that can help you appear younger. Choose bold, round, or oversized frames. Round glasses, in particular, also evoke the classic Mod vibe and also add a pinch of intellectual touch. We also suggest you go for an edgy, colourful frame to really highlight your energy.

Watches

Watches have never been only a functional accessory. No-no. They're one that signifies sophistication, timelessness and attention to detail. With a classic piece, you can introduce that refined edge, that dash of personality our outfit needs to feel complete. 

Just remember to keep things balanced. Don't go overboard. The minimalistic approach is the key to a sharp, dynamic look.

Hats

Spend some time figuring out which types of hats elevate your appearance. They can be a game changer. A hat can frame your face and make you look effortlessly cool (which we all agree is the secret ingredient to looking and feeling younger). The classic fedora, beret or flat cap – whatever sits right is the right choice for you. Easy as that.

Be Fresh, Bold & Unapologetically Yourself

How to look youthful? Embrace bold colours and perfect fits, and have fun experimenting with styles and staples. Being cool and fresh means redefining the boundaries of fashion and learning to express your own personality through the visual language of style. Mix modern with vintage, create your own signature look, and own it!

But most importantly, remember that no matter what your clothes are, your attitude will be the one thing that seals the deal of youthfulness. Be confident, stay authentic and keep a positive outlook. You got this.
