A sailboat is pictured on the cover of this month's edition of Luxury. But, this is no ordinary sailboat – it's a professional racing vessel, and similar boats will be raced later this month at the 35th America's Cup tournament in Bermuda. Thanks to Officine Panerai, the official watch brand of the this year's America's Cup, team Luxury spent a day in Bermuda with Oracle Team USA and SoftBank Team Japan, learning about the history of the trophy and the skills required to be considered a world-class sailor.
Last month, Luxury also paid a visit to Los Angeles, to watch the recent Hermès menswear show and we got to interview Cristophe Goineau, head of silks for menswear at the fashion house. Read these stories, plus learn about the bespoke Rolls-Royce designed by Emirati artist Mohammed Kazem, and take an exclusive look at the new Chanel campaign starring Kristen Stewart, in the May issue of Luxury, out with The National newspaper on Thursday, May 11.
