Prince of Wales Check


Savile Row Tailor Tommy Nutter, suited in his own design of Prince of Wales check trousers, (with wide cuffs) waistcoat, jacket pockets and braiding, on houndstooth jacket.

The Prince of Wales check is commonly confused with The Glen Urquhart check, which is nearly half the size of The Prince of Wales check. It was designed by Edward VII when he was Prince of Wales as livery for his shooting parties in Scotland. Also worn by the later Prince of Wales, Edward, The Duke of Windsor, and commonly mistaken to be his design.
