Menswear
Let’s make ourselves known. The motto of Marina Yachting’s man for spring-summer 2011 is clear, bold, strong. His style travels through time to become more refined, more evolved, never betraying its origins. Sea spirit meets tradition and invents a trend made of certainties – blue, clean cuts, modern volumes on shapes from the ancient nautical tradition, that also turns into an urban journey. Masculine elegance at its most virile.
The signature Pickot explores new dimensions and unusual weights – in nylon cotton satin with shell-coloured inner taping and paste buttons. Then there is the Ottante version, in polyester poplin and star-shaped section nylon – with four pockets and tailored lapels, compact, rain-proof, and with a “memory” hand. Ultra-light and versatile, Unicorno is the travelling version of Pickot, a garment for every season to pack in every suitcase. The Sirio blazer is in linen and cotton cloth with visible weft and “vintage” washing. Marina Yachting’s dark blue DNA dyes the New Sailor, light and rainproof cotton and nylon blouse.
Flashes of “yacht club” red light up the black of Marina Yachting’s blue. The classic and reversible Sailor, in waistcoat version, is made in ultra-light nylon and microfibre. These are evocative touches for a dynamic collection, where casual and daily-wear mix in harmony. The piqué polo-shirt is in cotton, with Idrostop finishing. Hooded and non-hooded sweatshirts in jersey and piqué have zippers, tracksuit pants and “active” Bermuda shorts are tightened by cord drawstrings. Some off-white flashes give out a summer light. Graphic contrasts on polo-shirts and T-shirt highlight collars, cuffs and hems.
Four worlds of colour are meant for one single universe of style. Natural hues alternate with traditional blue, spring weekend blues, the summer explosion of pastel hues blending with bright, Caribbean candy colours. The former group is a connection between city life and summer resort in cord colours, sandy colours, hemp, stone and teak brown, an elegant homage to boat decks, that interprets details and finishes.
This is the collection to wear once you get off the yacht to spend one day at the beach. It is informal, based on the nautical blue-white-red trio inspired by sailing races. Embroideries look like the sail numbers on the crews uniforms, overcasting stitches are inspired by the sailmaker work and technical details mae all the difference, such as metal loops instead of button holes and elastic drawstrings, hermetic, almost watertight buttons, and racer foldaway hoods. Everyday short jackets are in nylon-lined cotton with inner plating, lined in nickel-coloured mesh. The most spectacular summer colours dye swimsuits, beach towels, “beach” accessories ranging from caps to bags.
Womenswear
Liberty of spirit and liberty of style. The Marina Yachting’s woman carries the sea wherever she goes. She wears the sea inside and outside, during spring weekends and on summer holidays. A way of dressing turns into a way of being.
White and intense blue turn the masculine sailor’s world into a light and more feminine version thanks to soft materials and clean cuts, details and “antique” stitches. Cotton satin and nylon are used for the unlined Pickot with cord-coloured contrasting taping; the travelling version is ultra-light in ivory colour. What’s new – Pakos, a versatile Pickot-style trench-coat, Delfino, duffel coat with toggles and hood, Hamal, the perfect multi-pocketed rain-jacket for unpredictable weather changes, and the classic Mariner, double-breasted blazer jacket stolen from his closet and made more waisttight, with metal buttons.
Deep blue is brightened by ivory and “wounded” by “Yacht Club” red. A casual mood fits modern-looking short jackets, first of all the legendary Sailor, wind-cheating waistcoat, hot pants and mini-skirts fastened by “halliards” instead of strings. Dynamic fits for contemporary outfits – stretch sweatshirts in cotton and shiny viscose, sleeveless or shortsleeved hooded polo-shirts. The technical wardrobe turns smart thanks to care for details and body-hugging shapes – a bomber jacket, in patented leather-like nylon, turns into a cult jacket to be worn every day.
Many colour themes, all of them neat – graphic and design for the white and blue duo, made more precious by handmade embroideries and gold-plated buttons; decks teak for retro touches on jeans denim to wear in the city and then pack to go to the seaside; optical white combined with leather and gold, sandy and shell hues. The white and blue from Marina Yachting’s tradition come in a triumph of stripes – from micro patterns to asymmetrical ones.
The middle of summer, at last! The entire range of purely summery light blues is on display to make you really feel on holiday. Swimsuits and beach shorts, muslin and voile dresses overlap and alternate, like layers of freshness one can use as beachrobes and then wear until seaside aperitif time. White explodes as bright as ever, creating pieces floating from the shore sand to the aperitif terrace, from the beach umbrella to the night cocktail – embroidered logo and ivory and matching colour pigments, threads of very light gold brighten up cotton muslins, linen gauzes, cotton veils, both see-through and layered.
MY 1972
Blue is in the air. It is washed, “ripped”, stained of indigo blue and scratched by sea salt - denim and chambray, cotton blended with linen, vintage prints and memento-like embroideries, sailing canvases and anchor-shaped 1972-dated hand-knit embroideries. Knit tops are like survivors from the storm and long-lasting crossings, buttons seem to be coming from sunken wrecks, sweatshirts look like old worn-out jeans, thick stitches are sail stitches and nautical knots are tied in metal eyelets. Marina Yachting’s story looks back to its year of birth, 1972: each garment is dyed and discoloured, garment-cross-dyed and faded, artfully worn-out and sun- and salt-retted like a real sailor’s. It is far from fashion diktats, confident in its everlasting aplomb – a gentleman from yesteryear, a protagonist of present times.
Hydra
It's called Hydra like the broadest constellation of the Southern hemisphere: this is footwear that, in line with the origin of Marina Yachting, sets the pace of a new era.
Hydra comes from the synergy of advanced technologies, precious materials and an extreme search for structural and stylistic simplicity.
Hydra turns the concept of shoe upside down pivoting around Footbed. A footbed made of state-of-the-art water-proof materials, designed and patented accordingly, that let the feet transpire through a bespoke micro-piercing.
Hydra is the first footwear with technical servicing: Footbeds, each marked by an identification number, extractable and washable, may be replaced by the company.

No fear, no hesitation. The choices made by the Marina Yachting man for spring-summer 2010 are in line with the maritime spirit of the brand and are strong of a timeless tradition. Navy culture and style mix to make a versatile personality that shifts from urban routine to adventurous exploration.
ARCHIVIO
Ocean blue, interrupted by a “crest-of-the-wave” white – the icons of the Marina Yachting collection interpret the next summer season with the self-possession of their DNA, combined with touches of elegance. Pickot, the highlight of the collection, is in cotton and Teflon, with a detachable vest inspired by life vests. Two jackets complete the collection, with metal buttons with raised logo – Nelson, an unlined double-breasted jacket with raw cotton profiles, and Doria, a three-button jacket with patch pockets.
Idrostop sweaters have “gas-light” yarns for greater lightness and brightness. Highlights – Delta, a crew-neck with an embroidered anchor, and Drago, a navy double-breasted cardigan jacket with metal buttons.
Next to Chinos and five-pocket trousers are Bermuda shorts.
MACRO LOGO
White and blue, with flashes of fluo yellow. Classic and technical strike a perfect balance. A side with fourfold stripe enhances the look and the over-sized logo ties the links.
Sailor, the short navy jacket par excellence, is also offered in a gilt version and in ten colours. Waterproof nylon is also used for shorts with PVC patch pockets, while in trousers the striped side is positioned on the rear. Bermuda shorts have the macrologo in contrasting embroidery.
Corto Maltese-style lapels can be found on jersey and cotton piqué polo shirts, including the coloured ones. The shirt is a pocket-less poplin button-down. The zipped cardigan jacket, too, has a rubber patch breast pocket, to make for a casual look. The sailing cap is in double-twisted gabardine.
BANCHINA
Crews returning from regattas are ready for an aperitif at the Yacht Club. Blue, off-white, warm yellow and sail red are the main colours. Visible badges, broad stripes and a range of sorbet colours characterize denim, faded shirts with an embroidered anchor in lieu of numbers, polo shirts with the brand name written under thecollar.
New Sailor short jackets are in “glasshouse” nylon-coated pigment gabardine to give them a polished effect. Swimsuits and Bermuda shorts always have a regatta flavour that can be found in the logo designed as a sail number.
New pieces include the Travel Jacket, an “easy” passepartout jacket with front zipper, enamelled tack buttons and 3 patch pockets, the Bomber jacket in taffeta nylon, also for its pin-striped version, the Field Jacket with an emergency hood and the new Biker Jacket with contrasting piping.
In trousers, three weaves are offered – canvas, cover and ottoman. Lining details are applied to the belt, pockets profiles, ribbons and contrasting stitches. Denim is dark and treated. Sweaters are garment-dyed in 24 colours – gilt cardigan jackets, hooded sweatshirts, stitched badges with double anchor and crown.
Accessories – belts in cotton ribbon, tape in nylon, leather and stretch chord, sailing caps in cotton and nylon, sailing holdall in canvas with large pockets and shoulder strap.
