The Royal Ascot Round-Up 2025

The Royal Ascot Round-Up 2025

Royal Ascot 2025 really kicked off many months ago here at Favourbrook as we were incredibly busy curating a host of new sartorial garments and elegant womenswear for the new season. It has been a pleasure dressing so many of you for this exciting week, and it only really hit home last week when we held our annual pre-Ascot drinks, hosted by Clare Balding and her champion trainer brother Andrew of Parkhouse Stables, Kingsclere.

As the official menswear licensee for Royal Ascot, the event is naturally one of the most important in the calendar for us. Besides, being one of the most prestigious racing events of the year, it is also without doubt the most glamorous and an opportunity for race goers to dress up in their finery. This week we have seen some exceptional examples of gentleman wearing morning dress and a great many elegant ladies parading around the ground in Favourbrook creations. First up, the ladies... notably Anna Lisa Balding who always seems to look splendid in every Favourbrook garment she tries on! We couldn't have a better ambassador for the brand!

The gents did us proud too, with ITV racing presenter Oli Bell looking outstanding in his Favourbrook attire throughout the week. We also had the pleasure of fitting out former British athlete and Gladiator Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, proof that Favourbrook formalwear can even fit superhero figures!

Until next year!!!
