The Yacht on the Amalfi Coast Edit (Menswear)

A menswear guide for the Amalfi Coast yacht agenda

Malika Elshorbagy

It’s not often that I find myself musing about a man’s sense of style. It usually takes a transformative phase in his life, like a new girlfriend, for him to finally part with the tight black t-shirts that, while peak fashion in his eyes, are objectively a disservice to the rest of society.

Though this is not entirely the man’s, specifically the Egyptian man's, fault. It should be entirely blamed on a high degree of fashion naivety and a deep fixation on the players of Ahly FC’s wardrobes. I therefore consider it my civic duty to intervene and save Egyptian society from this entirely preventable aesthetic offense.

Because somewhere deep within the sweltering heat of Cairo is a man packing for his anniversary trip with his wife on the Amalfi Coast. Meanwhile, she is booking a romantic dinner on one of the yachts lining the Marina, blissfully unaware that the tight fabric of his t-shirt intended to accentuate his recent “cut” will massively clash with her epic new Missoni set for which she has been saving up for over the past three months. And what a tragedy that would be, for both his wife and the reputation of the Egyptian man’s style on the global stage.

Egypt, and stylish wives, I have your back. I will save you. What follows is the reparation needed for the irreversible damage done by Mohamed Ramadan’s metallic gold bra on the Coachella stage…

LOOK 1: The perfect look for surviving the Amalfi Coast—and browsing four boutiques with zero complaints alongside your wife. Because nothing says “I’ve healed” like trading in tight shirts for textured knits and shorts that don’t scream beach club DJ.

Zara | Textured polo shirt: 

Eleventy | Bandana- print swim shorts in blue

Golden goose | Ballstar sneaker


LOOK 2: He’s not overdressed, he’s “European relaxed.” He’ll nod seriously during the sommelier’s speech, pretend to taste hints of oak, then order whatever his wife tells him to.

LOOK 3: He’s wearing hand-embroidered Bode shorts and a pistachio linen shirt. Not because he’s trying to impress, but because he “just threw something on.” The perfectly curated casually chic look for an epic Italian early lunch on the yacht.
