Waistcoat Wednesday: England fans prepare for semi with Gareth Southgate tribute
If it’s good enough for the England boss then the rest of us will definitely follow.
Football fans are getting into the matchday spirit by donning waistcoats in tribute to England manager Gareth Southgate.
Now, as England prepare for the first World Cup semi-final since 1990 fans are showing off their versions of the M&S attire the England boss has been wearing throughout the tournament.
And even those who didn’t own waistcoats.
In York, little 11-week-old Benjamin was resplendent in a mini waistcoat and knitted “tie”.
The charity is encouraging people getting in on the sartorial trend ahead of the game to make a donation.
Not everyone was quite backing Waistcoat Wednesday though. A typo in a few early tweets sent two phrases into Twitter’s top trends – Waistcoat Wednesday was joined, and surpassed, by Waistcoast Wednesday. Perhaps a breezier version.
Here’s to Waistcoat Sunday, right?
