Men’s Occasionwear
Here at Percival, we think special occasions deserve special occasionwear, so we’ve come up with six properly barnstorming looks for you to aspire to. Just before we hit you with the good stuff, though let us quickly enlighten you. Did you know that the word ‘occasion’ is closely related, etymologically, to the word ‘opportunity’, and evolved from the Latin word ‘occidere’, which literally means ‘to fall down’? No, neither did we, but we do know that these looks are going to make you fall down in disbelief at how perfect they are.
That was educational and funny and we’re not sorry.
SIX BIG OCCASIONWEAR LOOKS — HERE WE GO.
1/ Pinstripe Tailored Blazer | Wool | Black, matching Pinstripe Tailored Trousers | Wool | Black, shirt and tie. Summer wedding, new years, work drinks, first time meeting the in-laws. Sorted. Thank you. Next…
2/ Anderson Zip Overshirt | Casentino Wool | Forest and complimenting Auxiliary Trackpants | Cotton | Navy over the Oversized Auxiliary T Shirt 01 | Organic Cotton | White. Casually smart. The sort of outfit that makes other men hate you because you’re objectively the most chilled pint in the beer garden and it looks like you haven’t had to try.
3/ This stunning combination of our Showa Stripe Crew Neck | Mohair | Multi and 5 Pocket Straight Leg Trouser | Cord | Ecru is a post-breakfast, chilling-with-your-nan gift from the gods. Who’s the god of that unique relaxation you feel after an Earl Grey and a homemade Flapjack?
4/ That versatile Waterproof Auxiliary Greyson Trench | Forest with Cinnamon, this time slightly more functional, paired with the PAFC Football Shirt | Deco Diamond | Rust. It’s light, it’s comfortable, it’s perfect for a day on the field, it’s brilliant for dribbling..
5/ There is something about that Trench Coat | Casentino Wool | Black over our Ashdown Patchwork Overshirt | Multi that just works. Two class acts complimenting each other, dovetailing in a way that elevates both. Like Morecambe & Wise, Xavi & Iniesta, Holmes & Watson, Pinky & The Brain. Great for any occasion, but rock up to a holiday drinks or the pub in this look and you’re cooking.
And there we have it. Six great looks to take you from Spring wedding to Summer BBQ. But it doesn’t stop there… from the beach to the boardroom, cricket match to the beer garden, you get the idea.
