Sir Rod Stewart and his latest outing with his rarely-seen 17-year-old son has shown that maybe matching clothes with your parents can be cool.
The 78-year-old rock legend and his son Alistair, whom he shares with Loose Women panelist Penny Lancaster, arrived at the Jimmy Choo Academy MA Cohorts Presentation in London last night wearing near identical looks.
The father-son duo both wore a black suit jacket with a thin white vertical stripe. Whilst Sir Rod embraced the stripes wholeheartedly by wearing the matching suit trousers, aspiring model Alastair played it cool pairing the eye-catching jacket with a pair of simple slim-leg trousers, black plunging zip-up top and a bare ankle peeking out from his black leather loafers.

Though a loving father to eight children, it is rare that Sir Rod makes a public appearance with 17-year-old Alastair making this showing, at the event which coincided with Frieze London – one of the world’s most influential contemporary art fairs – extra special.

He makes the odd appearance on Penny's Instagram alongside younger brother Aidan, 12. In July, the model took to Instagram to share a photo of sun Aidan relaxing on holiday in Marbella.

Though it isn't an everyday occurrence for a young man to step out in an outfit matching their father's, it is a sartorial choice we can get on board with. The stripe suit jacket is a timeless piece and the Stewarts show it can be rocked by all ages.
