Men's — A Mediterranean Charter Wardrobe, Reduced to Eight
One linen trouser, two shirts, one swim, one polo, one loafer, one slide, one tortoiseshell frame. The charter week, edited.
The Rule
“A man's charter wardrobe is the same eight pieces, worn the right way, in the right order, in the right port.”
From the Palace of Roman edit.
The Eight
Every piece, in the order you'll wear it.
No. 01
No. 02Ivory, soft at the collar.
A short-sleeve cotton-silk that drapes, not stands. Untucked over the linen trouser by day; tucked for the terrace at seven.
Sourcing
No. 03Linen, three buttons open.
The open-collar linen — white, ecru, or faded indigo — that walks off the tender and into lunch in the port.
Sourcing
No. 04Five-inch rise, gold-tipped drawcord.
Bottega, Canali, Givenchy. A short cut you'd wear off the boat — clean side seam, a colour that reads on every deck.
Sourcing
No. 05Cream, for the late lunch.
Bridges the sun-deck and the dining banquette. Open the placket. Untucked. The only top you need between hours one and six.
Sourcing
No. 06Unlined suede, broken in.
Chocolate or stone, worn without socks — a no-show liner saves the leather. The arrival shoe and the dinner shoe, in one.
Sourcing
No. 07Woven leather, off the boat.
Bottega intrecciato, tan calfskin from Brunello. The shoe that ends up in every photograph from the village.
Sourcing
No. 08Tortoiseshell, with weight.
Deep tortoise acetate — pilot or keyhole. Acetate, not metal: the sea will eat the hinges by day three.
