Help! What can i get away with wearing?

[SandraD1*]

I have my very first in hand show tomorrow (man). I had ordered the clothes I thought were required but none of it fits. Been round the shops this morning, but of course there isn't anything suitable.
It's only a small show, the horse is all sorted. Trad cob.
I'm now wondering if shirt, smart trousers, tie and flat cap will be suitable? I don't have a jacket/waistcoat to wear. I have a brown waxed jacket but not sure that's suitable.
Thanks! Having a panic.

I would find a warm jumper that goes with the trousers if you haven't got a jacket. I hope this is an indoor show.

You will be fine! I wouldn't wear just a shirt, because apart from anything else, you'll freeze! Just wear whatever fleece/sweatshirt/coat you have that's a boring colour and looks tidy.

As above, as long as you are clean and tidy you will be fine. Good luck and please let us know how you get on.
