Luxury Yacht Charter: Monokinis Set Trend for Summer Luxury Yachting Swimwear

Posted on

BEST SWIMSUIT FOR THE MED

It seems each spring, one of our most popular blog topics is the year’s trends in swimwear.

Our readers hope to learn about the newest Feadship yacht charter vessel to launch.  You will need to wait a few days while we help the ladies get a jump on this summer’s hottest swimsuit fashions.  

EDITOR NOTE

Editor’s note – the trend toward one-piece swimsuits that we saw in 2012 is continuing to grow as stylish celebrities, from full-figured girls like  Beyonce to the ultra-slim Taylor Swift, are rocking one-piece bathing suits known as “maillots.”  With so many A-listers going with one-piece suits, department stores and boutiques are stocking more monokinis and fewer bikinis.  The New York Post reports one-piece swimsuit sales are up around 20 percent in local New York shops.

SEASONAL FAVORITES

In a salute to the maillot trend, here are our 2013 seasonal favorites.

NORMA KAMALI

NORMA KAMALI Vogue Lycra Collection (from $155 at Sacks Fifth Avenue)
We’ve grown accustomed to seeing photos of Beyonce onboard Caribbean yacht charter vessels wearing casual daywear; but you can’t stay onboard all day, especially when the warm waters of St Barts are calling.  Here’s Beyonce in a stylish Norma Kamali one piece:

Yacht Maven Scores First Charter on Yacht KING BABY – Edgy Rock ‘n’ Roll Themed Superyacht

Posted on

PRESENTING KING BABY

Superyacht King Baby spent a few months of exclusive use.  The 140 foot IGA Yachts motor yacht then entered into the charter market.  Prominent yacht maven Jana Sheeder wasted no time in securing the very first charter.

 

SHEEDER SOLIDIFIES A MAGICAL CLIENT HOLIDAY

This happened only days after the yacht’s manager publicly announced the yacht would be available for the upcoming Caribbean yacht charter season.  Sheeder delivered a 10-night contract to hire the vessel during the year-end holidays.

ALL ABOUT THE YACHT

The 140 foot yacht KING BABY, IGA Yachts (China’s) largest vessel built to date, is named after King Baby Studio. The Studio is Mitchell Binder’s iconic Los Angeles jewelry design business.  Binder is the darling of the LA-based music industry for more than three decades. He has celebrity clients including members of the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith.  King Baby Studio has made custom jewelry for celebrities like Howard Stern, Liz Taylor, and Taylor Swift.

Binder and the yacht’s owner are close friends.   The owner’s new toy reflects multiple things. For instance, the confidence, charisma and maverick attitude of provocative jewelry line.

 

 

THE MEANING OF KING BABY

Luxury with a rebel spirit sums up both the jewelry and the look of the yacht.  From chrome-plated guitars, to vintage rock photos framed in black alligator leather, to the ondeck Jacuzzi tub with a three tiered waterfall, to custom drain covers, the yacht is truly unique and unlike any charter vessel in the world.  The rock décor is a collaborative effort between famed yacht designer Evan K Marshall, King Baby Studio, and Slick+Design.

 

ACCOMMODATIONS

Accommodations for up to 10 guests are available in a full beam master stateroom on the man deck, and 4 guests cabins below.

 

ONBOARD ENTERTAINMENT

Of course, you can’t have a music-inspired yacht without a great entertainment system. 24 televisions (yep, 24, not a typo), including an 84-inch 4k screen in the skylounge are integrated with an Apple TV / music system. Surround sound pumps the beat throughout the interior & exterior – from bow to stern. Music can be played from a personal device or from the yacht’s music library.

THE YACHT PRICE

King Baby is available from $160,000 per week in low season, to $175,000 per week for peak holiday dates. She will be based in the Caribbean through spring 2017, then relocate to New England for the summer.
