How to be a stylish off-duty gentleman
Some carefully chosen accessories can speak volumes in a gentleman’s casual attire.
< 1 min
A gentleman’s wardrobe should be held up by certain pillars: perfectly cut—preferably bespoke—suiting in classic shades, pinstripes and checks; fine cotton shirting; silk ties and polished shoes; a wool coat for inclement days.
But increasingly, as casual attire creeps in even to work days, how does he showcase his sartorial status without appearing like an albacore out of water?
WATCH THIS SPACE
A classic timepiece is the ultimate investment piece for any gentleman. Whether you prefer the feel of a leather strap or the weight of articulated steel around your wrist, choose a design that speaks to timeless elegance and masculinity.
Houses such as Longines, Rolex, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier and more will keep you on time and always in style. For a piece that is James Bond-approved—may we suggest an Omega Seamaster to add some depth to your style?
A SHADED VIEW
Take the edge off the day’s glare with some chic sunglasses. Look for styles that hark back to the gentlemen of the Golden Age of Hollywood, such as classic aviators, Wayfarers or those with a keyhole bridge/ Keep the frames in neutral hues such as tortoiseshell, black, tan or metal finishes. The future’s bright—and you’ll be cool.
POCKET THIS
The simplest way to add a fanciful flourish to any look is with a pocket square tucked into your blazer pocket. There are many ways to style them, from a peeking line of fabric to an origami-folded extravaganza.
But should you find yourself in need of a quick fix, even a small puff of silk or a wildly stuffed kerchief will offer a dash of flair.

When Lamborghini takes to the water, subtlety isn’t on the agenda. Unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show, the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT is a 30-metre superyacht that fuses Italian automotive theatre with cutting-edge naval engineering.
The model builds on the collaboration that began in 2020 with the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, a sell-out success that celebrated the marque’s founding year.
This new flagship pushes the partnership between Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group to a grander scale, designed to deliver the same adrenaline rush at sea that drivers expect behind the wheel.
“The Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT redefines the concept of nautical luxury,” said Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.
“It is not only a yacht, but an affirmation of Italian excellence. The Italian Sea Group and Automobili Lamborghini share an exclusive clientele who are passionate about beauty, technology, and extreme performance.”
Design cues are unmistakably Lamborghini. The yacht’s sharp exterior lines echo the Fenomeno supercar revealed at Monterey Car Week, complete with Giallo Crius launch livery and signature Y-shaped lighting.
Inside, the cockpit and lounges mirror the DNA of Sant’Agata supercars through hexagonal motifs, sculptural seating and dramatic contrasts. With accommodation for up to nine guests and three crew cabins, indulgence meets practicality on every deck.
Performance is equally uncompromising. Three MTU 16V 2000 M96L engines and triple surface propellers generate a combined 7,600 horsepower, driving the yacht to 45 knots at full throttle, with a cruising speed of 35 knots. Two 35 kW generators provide additional efficiency and reliability, ensuring the yacht’s power matches its presence.
Mitja Borkert, Lamborghini’s Design Director, said: “With the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT, we aimed to create a product that embodies the main design characteristics of our super sports cars. All the details, from the exterior to the colour, to the interior areas, recall and are inspired by Lamborghini’s DNA.”
Presented in scale at Monaco, the definitive Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT is scheduled to hit the water at the end of 2027. For those who demand their indulgence measured not only in metres but in knots, this is Lamborghini’s most extravagant expression yet.
