Linen for a Sailing Regatta — The Women's PP Wardrobe

Pieter Petros August 2026 5 min read

The women's sailing regatta wardrobe — as spectator on the boat, as guest at the prize-giving, as partner at the yacht club dinner — has a specific set of requirements that the men's regatta article addresses only partially.

The spectator boat. A PP ladies linen set in white with natural swim shorts for the spectator boat and the tender excursions during the regatta; leather deck shoes. The spray is real — natural swim shorts rather than linen shorts for the boat.

“The women's sailing regatta wardrobe — spectator boat, prize-giving, yacht club dinner — has a specific set of requirements. PP ladies linen set for the boat; Amelia Oyster for the Squadron; Coral Orange for the Mediterranean quayside.”

— Pieter Petros, founder

For the Cowes Week Royal Yacht Squadron occasion. The most formally observed sailing club occasion in the world. The Amelia linen dress shirt in Oyster with walnut buttons — the most formally composed and most correct PP women's choice for the Squadron dinner.

For the Rolex Cup Porto Cervo. The Costa Smeralda's most observed social week for women. The Amelia in Coral Orange or Hibiscus for the Piazzetta and the marina evening — the Costa Smeralda warm evening light rewards the most vivid Amelia colourways.

For the regatta club dinner and the prize-giving. The Amelia linen dress shirt in Oyster with walnut buttons — the most formally composed choice for the yacht club dinner context across all major regattas.
