Rylan Clark’s Royal Ascot 2026 Look
Rylan Clark is a regular fixture in British popular culture. From presenting his Saturday afternoon show on BBC Radio 2, to his travelogue show with Rob Rinder, he is on his way to becoming a national treasure. So, we were bowled over when chose to wear Dobell for Royal Ascot, the most prestigious event in the British horse racing calendar.
Rylan was attending with his partner Kennedy Bates and friends Bernice and Ant Cole. The four were guests in the Royal Enclosure and as such needed a formalwear outfit which adhered to the strict dress code at Royal Ascot, meaning black or grey morning dress with a waistcoat, tie, and top hat for the gents.
Rylan chose a morning suit ensemble from Dobell, pairing timeless black tailoring with a gold/buff waistcoat and striking Moroccan blue accessories. Each piece carefully chosen to create a sharp, elegant and occasion-appropriate outfit.
