What to wear to which enclosure?

The Windsor Enclosure - Royal Ascot Style Guide

The most accessible way to take part in this prestigious event. The Windsor Enclosure is located right next to the last sprint mile, so be sure to soak up the amazing atmosphere. There is a much less formal dress code for The Windsor Enclosure although you are always encourage to dress your best. What Frederick Thomas suggests: A tailored suit jacket and shirt, paired with smart chinos is ideal for smart casual look. In the Windsor Enclosure ties aren’t a necessity but here a Frederick Thomas we love a good tie! Here are some of our favourite accessories we think you will love…

Featuring:

T-Rex Tie, Pineapple Cufflinks, Green Pocket Square Stand out from the crowd in our fun and fashionable accessories. You might not be in the Royal Enclosure but they aren’t allowed to wear our famous Frederick Thomas T-Rex tie, so who’s the real winner…?!

The Village Enclosure - Royal Ascot Style Guide

It’s the Village Enclosures 2nd year! This enclosure was introduced last year, based on the other side of the race track you get great views of the finishing stretch. The enclosure also includes pop-up restaurants and bars as well as live music from DJ’s and bands throughout the whole day and night. Again the dress code is more relaxed, but to suit the enclosures energetic and young feel we suggest dressing for the occasion! What Frederick Thomas suggests: Again a smart pair of chinos matched with a tailored jacket and crisp shirt will do perfectly. There are no strict rules on accessories but we suggest to keep it fresh and fun with our selection of Village Enclosure ready ties and cufflinks.

The Queen Anne Enclosure - Royal Ascot Style Guide

There is lots of action going on in the Queen Anne Enclosure, with the grandstands, restaurants and bars creating a great atmosphere. Unlike the Royal Enclosure, dress wear and morning suits aren’t essential but of course it’s allowed!

What Frederick Thomas suggests: The rules say to wear a matching suit with shirt and tie, giving us a great canvas to accessories on!
