The season’s menswear catwalks continued their ongoing love of all things sports, but with a grown-up approach, served up by such names with a dedication to elevated sportswear as Prada and Moncler.

A statement sports watch, classic aviators and pouch bags accessorise a monochrome, blue, tan and red capsule. In tune with this sports chic style, the St Regis Vommuli, reached only by seaplane from the Maldivian capital Male, is an architecturally exciting ultra modern design inspired by marine life.

Stay in one of 77 enormous villas, in the jungle, on the beach or overwater, each with chic modern interior, private swimming pool and personal butler. Join resident marine biologists in spotting hammerhead sharks and orcas on diving trips, relax in the Iridium spa or the dramatic ‘Whale’ bar. To dine, try a degustation evening in the sunken wine cellar Decanter, while your teens chill out in the ‘Socialite’ club.
