If you’re capable of pulling it off, feel free to dabble in the bowler hat or that Dolce and Gabbana staple? the baker boy. Whilst some may see them as the sole reserve of Made In Chelsea defects, baker boy hats are incredibly classic. Aim for a more traditional black or grey format; anything with a remotely ‘modern twist’ should be condemned to the bargain bin. The slightest error when taking a risk can cheapen even the most expensive (both superficially and literally) look.

For those looking to take another big stylistic step, channel Steve McQueen and Hedi Slimane with some Dalston-friendly religious iconography. Donning crucifixes may not be for everyone, but it’s Sicilian through and through.
