Cardie comeback

Nick the cardie off your grandad's back because it's time to dress like Alan Partridge in casual mode. Zip or button fastening doesn't matter, as long as your cardigan has a snug fit and an ironic twist. To match this summer's Margot from 'The Good Life' moment for women, men should go for the Jerry Leadbetter look. Wear Jimmy Tarbuck pastel lemon or pink numbers with a pair of Farahs, nylon polo neck or shirt and cravat for that Sunday golfer feel. Right now, V-neck cardigans are also very acceptable with smart trousers, shirt and tie. Meanwhile retro cardies - big homemade Val Doonican numbers, 1950s style or Starsky chunky knits - look great with jeans or cords.
