Umbrellas of Cherbourg is a French musical film from 1964, and is directed by Jacques Demy. This colorful film follows Genevieve who works at a local boutique that sells umbrellas as she meets Guy, a mechanic who later becomes drafted and their relationship is tested.

Guy has a classic menswear style but is unique in that his outfits include bright pops of color. One look that can be easily recreated includes a khaki raincoat worn over a blue pinstriped blazer, and underneath that a pink button down shirt with a navy printed tie. Another is a brown blazer with a bright blue teal shirt.
