PILLOW TALK
Savoir Beds has been
making bespoke beds
for more than a century,
initially for London’s
Savoy Hotel in 1905.
Today, superyacht owner
Roman Abramovich has
one in every cabin on
Eclipse, says Savoir’s
co-owner and CEO,
Alistair Hughes. Intended
to last a lifetime, the
mattresses are hand-
made in London and the
box springs in Cardiff
over a period of months.
Savoir’s latest design
is a collaboration with
French artist Arik Levy
(above). Shift 01 has
an adjustable headboard
that can be reconfigured
for multiple uses.
Shelving, bedside tables,
even a coffee table –
your boat will get a
fantastic injection of
chic, and ensure charter
guests never have the
same bedroom twice.

while the design
pedigree ensures
you’ll look shipshape.

POLO
Under creative
director Alessandro
Michele, Gucci is
known for its more-
is-better style. But
items like this warm
weather polo prove
that the brand still
has room for classic
simplicity. The collar
detail is packed with
Italian swagger.

SUNGLASSES
With dark lenses set
against opaque
white frames, these
sunglasses from
Giorgio Armani have
an unmistakably
retro feel and
provide essential
dockside chic. $280,

HENLEY
Slightly more formal
than a T-shirt, this
Rag & Bone Henley
is derived from the
classic English
rowing shirt. Toss
it over swimming
trunks or combine it
with navy chinos for
a dressier look.
