THE PRACTICAL PART
The Inner Layer
These lay right next to the skin and can be completely hidden. Their main function is to be lightweight and breathable. We’re sure you all have a good stock undershirts so ‘enough said'.
The First Layer
These are usually the visual anchors to your outfit.
The Middle Layer
These tend to be your top layer when you’re inside – they should have some warmth & fit comfortably over a shirt.
The Outer Layer
This is your outdoor top layer – pea coats, rain coats, over coats. They should be long enough to cover all the layers beneath them.
Accent Layers
Those pieces that add a final flourish to layering.

THE PRACTICAL PART
- Each visible layer should be something you could wear on its own.
- Layers should go from thin to thicker.
- Scale your patterns from subtle to strongest.
- Layering includes accessories too.
- Start with two colours.
- Combine collar types.
- Standard shirt and chinos or trousers can look too 'safe'. Add something else & you’re ahead of the game.
- Do that & even with 3 or 4 layers – you’ll still look smart if you remove a layer.
- This can work in either direction –plain on top or vice versa.
- A smart watch, a luxury scarf adds character and interest.
- Try shades of your main colour and then add a 2nd colour for accent.
- This showcases your layering expertise.
