Prince Philip might not be the first name that comes to mind when one thinks of royal style, but the Duke of Edinburgh leaves a lasting legacy in menswear and shopping habits.
Like the rest of the Royal Family, he always flew the flag for British talent and design and supported local businesses and labels with his considered looks. These included Savile Row institutions in London.
As someone who had a military career, he also embraced military dress, and selected it for milestone moments in his life.
His style choices were always appropriate for the occasion, polished and quietly elegant. Philip's fashion complemented his wife, the Queen's, and together they were a magnetic pair.
The father of four was also a conscious shopper who invested in timeless pieces and wore them for decades. This is something that son Prince Charles has adopted. It's a mindset that was well ahead of its time. It is all the more relevant now that customers become more conscious of their shopping habits and the impact on the environment and how they can select from sustainable options, support local businesses and celebrate the best of craft.
With the Duke of Edinburgh's passing at the age of 99 on April 9 at Windsor Castle, he will leave behind many legacies, and his impact on fashion is something that won't be forgotten.
