It’s not just the on-court action that keeps us glued to Wimbledon, the sidelines often serve up some serious style inspiration. This year, British actor Douglas Booth turned heads with an effortlessly refined look, spotted alongside Bel Powley in a standout summer suit from Wax London. His choice? A perfectly tailored linen two-piece that delivers both polish and comfort, proving that smart doesn’t have to mean stiff.
Booth’s relaxed-yet-sharp ensemble came courtesy of Wax London’s Fintry Blazer (£210) and Alp Trouser (£130), both crafted from breathable 100% linen in a warm, natural hue. Combined, the look offered up a fresh alternative to the classic tailoring often seen in the Royal Box, light, breezy, and ideal for the British summer social season.
The Fintry Blazer: Your Summer Suiting Staple
Wax London’s Fintry Blazer is the kind of jacket every man needs in his warm-weather wardrobe. A single-breasted design with a relaxed fit, it’s half-lined for comfort and breathability, which, in linen, means maximum coolness in every sense of the word. Featuring a notch lapel, two front patch pockets, and two internal pockets, this blazer walks the line between laid-back and smart with effortless ease.
Whether you’re heading to the tennis, a summer wedding, or just want to upgrade your office wear, the Fintry is a style-forward essential. Booth styled his with an open collar and minimal fuss, a reminder that tailoring doesn’t need to be over-complicated to make an impact.

The Alp Trouser: Slim, Sleek, and Seasonal
Worn with the coordinating Alp Trouser, the suit becomes a lesson in refined coordination. These slim-tapered trousers are half-lined and designed to move easily between occasions, from city strolls to countryside escapes. With their lightweight construction and flattering silhouette, the Alp offers a timeless cut in a seasonally smart fabric.
Pair them with the blazer for a full tailored look like Douglas, or wear them solo with a tucked tee or linen shirt for casual cool. Either way, they’ll quickly become your go-to for the season.
