The Poshcast Heatwave Guide: Is it ever OK for a man to wear an open-toed shoe?

Welcome to The Poshcast with Cleo Watson and Sophia Money-Coutts, two Jilly Cooper characters transposed into 2026.This week Sophia and Cleo discuss how to survive this heatwave sartorially, from office shorts to avoiding sweat patches. Plus they tackle the great question of our time: is it ever ok for a man to wear an open-toed shoe?And the question from the audience this week is about the minefield of modern greetings, prompted by Prince Edward kissing the King on both cheeks at Ascot last week. Sophia delves into her copy of Debrett’s for guidance on handshakes, hugs, air kisses, and whether you can get away with more flamboyance as an Italian Duke.You can watch The Poshcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/iVP6Gc7pl1YSend your questions to [email protected] Producer: Carla MercerSocial Editor: Ruby BorgExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsHighlights:Is it ever OK for a man to wear an open-toed shoe?How to greet someone: one kiss or two?Chapters:00:00 Welcome to The Poshcast03:11 Hippo and Dennis update05:58 Listener Feedback Roast08:49 Heatwave Dressing17:20 Men’s Sandal Debate25:42 Modern Greetings Etiquette31:40 Debrett’s Social Kissing Rules34:36 Mouse Naming Finale Hosted on Acast.
