Be a good sport this Social Season with Corporate Service at Harrods

The Social Season is in full swing

The arrival of The Social Season is an important time for corporate entertaining, with summer social highlights including Henley Royal Regatta, Royal Ascot and Wimbledon. The dedicated team at Corporate Service at Harrods has a selection of iconic Harrods hampers, stunning fascinators and institutional boater’s hats to help celebrate these notable occasions with clients and employees. From racecourses to royal parks, tennis to croquet lawns, Harrods completes the perfect summer’s day.

Strawberries, soaring temperatures and glorious flutes of champagne and Pimms; The Social Season calendar started in March with the Oxbridge boat race and closes mid-September with the LAPADA Art & Antiques Fair. Dressing for the array of events The Social Season offers can pose quite the sartorial fix, trying to achieve a glamorous yet effortless all day look. Corporate Service at Harrods has created a five-step guide on how to dress for The Social Season.

Ladies, keep hair styled up to stay cool and always add shades. Cat-eye sunglasses are back in fashion for summer 2016, with the Bottega Veneta Cat Eye Sunglasses (left) at £395 perfect for a bright and sunny day.

2 Don’t be scared to be formal. The summer temperatures don’t mean suits should be hidden away in the wardrobe. The Social Season consists of traditional British events; don’t be scared to dress up for the occasion in a gentlemanly manner with a light, soft-washed linen suit from Canali at £1,175.

4 Dare to be bold. Dress in the colour of the summer to stand out this Social Season. Wearing yellow is a fabulous way of channelling a zesty summer hue. To pare the look down, add light pastel accessories. The Dolce & Gabbana lemon pencil dress at £1,300 will turn heads from Hurlingham to Henley.
