A Colourful Crew captures the essence of Bermuda's sailing culture when haute couture met the seas in June 1970. Eight vibrant personalities aboard the Calypso boutique's yacht create a tableau of resort chic, their colorful attire including yellows matching the distinctive painted deck, florals catching the breeze, and patterns playing against nautical lines, delivering the vessel as a floating showcase of design. Slim Aarons recorded this perfect marriage of nautical adventure and high elegance, where white sails billow above the sun-drenched yellow platform while one figure lounges on the catamaran's rope trampoline below.

The scene brings seasoned sailing culture into your living space, where the yacht's architectural rigging and white mast frame fashionable figures against Bermuda's sapphire waters. Everyone will recognize the refinement of an era when boutique owners took their panache to sea, creating uncommon moments that defined island cosmopolitan charm. A Colourful Crew positions you among those who appreciate when couture ventures beyond the showroom, bringing the Calypso spirit of adventure and flair into your daily environment with every glance.

The photograph preserves a moment when Bermuda's resort wear reached its zenith of influence, recorded at the height of the island's sartorial revolution. Slim Aarons understood that true luxury meant fashionable personalities gathering aboard a boutique's yacht, where partly cloudy June skies and distant shorelines provided the backdrop for effortless glamour. This print connects you to that glorious chapter of resort history, when clothing stores commanded their own vessels and elegance sailed freely.

Available in photo lustre or matte finish, professionally framed in black, white, or natural wood to complement your refined interior design choices. The vibrant yellow deck and kaleidoscope of color await, ready to deliver atmosphere to your walls with Bermuda's sailing splendor. Make your space extraordinary today.

Q: Prints are listed in cm and inches — what size will I receive?
We produce prints in both metric (cm) and imperial (inches) sizes. The sizing format depends on the product type and your delivery location. In almost all cases, the difference between metric and imperial conversions is only a few millimetres.

Q: How does the border affect the size of the print?
The total size of the print always matches the size you select. If you choose to add a border, it is included within that size and slightly reduces the image area.

Q: What are the dimensions if I order a framed print?
The size you select refers to the internal dimensions of the frame — the print size including any border. The frame moulding adds approximately an inch to each side, so the outer framed dimensions will be about 2 inches larger in both height and width.

Q: Are these limited-edition or numbered prints?
All prints are not produced in fixed or numbered editions. Each piece is made to order using archival pigment inks on museum-grade fine-art paper for exceptional clarity and longevity.
