Summer is well and truly on its way, meaning one very exciting thing – the yachting season is upon us. The thing that could spoil our enjoyment? Deciding what to wear! After all, a yacht trip requires a step up from the typical vacation attire, as you never know what glamorous event you might be invited to at the last minute. Even when chilling on the swim deck, you still want to be looking your best for the ‘gram. Luckily, we are here to answer your prayers when it comes to deciphering what to wear on a yacht. From the statement designer pieces worn by celebrities and models to the high-fashion garments of influencers, here are our favourite yacht outfit ideas for every occasion, whether you’re on a day-long yacht charter or gallivanting all summer long.
Five sizzling yacht outfit ideas
Soaking up the sun

Swimwear trends move so fast that it can be hard to keep up. However, this is one bikini that is proving itself timeless, tried and tested by not one but two supermodels. While Kendall Jenner accessorized this skimpy newspaper-print number with a cool glass of wine and sunnies just last month, some of you might remember that Bella Hadid also caused a stir with it last summer.
While that specific piece is available to buy from Dipped in Blue bikinis, the key trend to remember this year is the high leg. This is a blessing for those who dare to wear it, as it will elongate your legs, making everyone look like a supermodel. Perfect for those candid dipping-your-feet-into-the-sea-from-the-swim-deck shots…

When you’ve spent most of your time on the yacht half-dressed it’s easy to think of swimwear as your go-to outfit. Sadly, at the yacht club, this won’t cut it. However, this does give you the opportunity to get a little dressed up, putting your most stylish face forward as you meet kindred yacht lovers. Although luxury yacht clubs have different rules depending on their style and which events are on, its always best to go smart when you can.
This white dress from fashion blogger Anda works perfectly for lunch at the club, a modern take on the classic shirtdress design, with the silk scarf around the neck adding a cheeky nautical spin. Anda wore it last year, but to update this yacht outfit idea for 2019 simply add a pair of ultra-on-trend gladiator heels – you’re good to go.

What to wear on a yacht when you need to cover up but can’t quite bear to part with your bikini? Rapper Cardi B is providing the inspiration for our next look with her bold patterns and a cool, confident attitude.
This season geometric patterns are back with a vengeance and matching everything from your hat to your sarong is de rigueur. This is something you can use to your advantage, as it actually requires less thinking – once you’ve chosen one pattern, such as that of your swimwear, just make sure everything else follows suit. You can also use your hat to keep your face out of the sun as you dine alfresco on-deck, with those evening rays still capable of burning.

Two options here – we know important it is to get this look right. First up is actress and model Laura Harrier in a gorgeous one-sided dress, a style that has been a big feature of the SS19 catwalks. Combine that design with the everlasting elegance of the LBD and you have a winner.
Top tip: Pair this with a delicate belt bag for even more fashion points. You’ll never be left wondering where you left your bag again!

So there we have it – what to wear on a yacht in every occasion. With our outfits prepped, all that’s left to say is: bring on the season!
