There are yachts designed for stillness, anchored in the Med, drifting between beach clubs and long lunches, and then there are yachts built to move. To discover. To go where almost nothing else does. Solace  belongs firmly in the latter. The 187-foot Feadship superyacht is currently undertaking a years-long global expedition, a journey that trades predictable cruising grounds for some of the most remote and rarely accessed waters on Earth. And, unusually, it’s not reserved solely for its owner. Select guests can step on board for week-long legs of what is being called the Solace Odyssey , a voyage that spans everything from the Canadian Arctic’s Northwest Passage to the untouched islands of Papua New Guinea’s Bismarck Archipelago. This is not travel as spectacle. It’s travel with intent. Encounters You Can’t Simply Book The journey began in Dominica, but even here, the experience was anything but expected. Guests slipped into the water and found themselves within metres of giant sperm whales, watching them glide, circle, and communicate in their natural environment. These are the kinds of encounters that typically require years of planning and permits. Here, they unfold as part of a wider narrative. On board, exploration is layered with meaning. A dedicated cabin has been reserved for scientists and researchers, bringing a deeper dimension to each destination. On this particular voyage, a specialist studying sperm whale communication joined the trip, transforming post-dinner conversations into something closer to a private lecture series, driven by curiosity rather than itinerary. Built for the Edges of the Map With a range of 4,500 miles, advanced forward sonar, and the ability to operate автономously for up to a month, Solace  is engineered for the kind of travel most yachts simply aren’t designed to attempt. Its tenders—purpose-built for exploration, extend that reach even further, allowing guests to move seamlessly from superyacht comfort to remote shoreline discovery. This is a vessel that doesn’t follow routes. It creates them. A Different Kind of Luxury And yet, for all its technical capability, Solace  never loses sight of what luxury should feel like. Following a major refit, the interiors lean into understated elegance, mid-century silhouettes paired with contemporary pieces from Liaigre and Holly Hunt. Spaces feel intentional rather than excessive, refined without being overworked. The details, however, are anything but subtle. A glass-fronted sauna opens directly onto the ocean, offering the rare thrill of stepping from heat into polar waters. A forward Jacuzzi and cold plunge pool frame some of the world’s most dramatic scenery. There’s an enclosable bridge deck for all-weather comfort, a floating inflatable dock, and a full suite of wellness offerings, including onboard therapists. Even in the most remote corners of the world, the experience remains resolutely seven-star. Exploration, Reimagined At its core, Solace  represents a shift in what yachting can be. This is not about ticking destinations off a list or circling familiar coastlines. It’s about accessing the inaccessible, understanding the unfamiliar, and doing so without compromising on comfort or design. A superyacht, yes, but one with purpose. And for those invited on board, it offers something increasingly rare in modern luxury: the feeling that you are part of something genuinely extraordinary, unfolding in real time. https://www.feadship.nl

At this point, Formula 1 is not just a sport. It is a social calendar moment, a style spectacle, a hospitality arms race and, for the lucky few, one of the most glamorous weekends of the summer. Now, Silverstone is leaning fully into that reality with The Vale, a new ultra-premium experience launching for the 2026 Formula 1 British Grand Prix, positioned just steps from the Formula 1 paddock with views over the pit entry and the circuit’s final corners. Silverstone is describing it as its most elevated hospitality tier yet, with access strictly limited and entry by waitlist only. Silverstone’s answer to the luxury hospitality boom If recent years have proved anything, it is that today’s Grand Prix guest wants far more than a seat with a view. They want privacy, polish, atmosphere and the kind of access that feels impossible to replicate elsewhere. That is exactly the space The Vale is designed to occupy. Launching as part of the British Grand Prix weekend from 3 to 5 July 2026, The Vale sits in one of the most charged positions on the circuit, close enough to feel fully immersed in the action while offering a far more refined way to experience it. According to Silverstone, the space has been created to preserve quality, privacy and intimacy, with design that blends motorsport heritage and modern British luxury. And visually, it sounds every bit the part. Expect clean-lined interiors, expansive terraces, flowing spaces that connect dining rooms and private suites to the track itself, and uninterrupted sightlines over one of the most dramatic sections of the course. More members’ club than motorsport grandstand What makes The Vale feel interesting is that it is not being pitched as traditional race-day hospitality at all. Silverstone is framing it more like an exclusive club layered over one of the biggest sporting events in the world. Guests can expect dedicated VIP access, the option to arrive by chauffeur or helicopter, and a programme built around Michelin-curated menus, sommelier-led drinks, premium bars and curated DJ sets across the weekend. Silverstone also says there will be invitation-only after-hours elements, pushing the whole experience further into private-members-club territory than classic sporting hospitality. In other words, this is for the crowd who want the thrill of Formula 1 without giving up the comforts of a beautifully considered luxury experience. The stay doesn’t have to end trackside For those making a full weekend of it, Silverstone’s wider hospitality offering already includes high-end accommodation options such as Escapade Silverstone, alongside glamping and other premium stay formats around the circuit. That means The Vale can be part of a much bigger British Grand Prix escape, rather than simply a one-day ticket upgrade. And that is arguably where the appeal lies. Formula 1 weekends have become immersive by nature. Nobody really wants to dip in and out anymore. They want the full world: the build-up, the trackside energy, the dinners, the music, the people, the late nights and the stories afterwards. Why everyone will be talking about The Vale Silverstone is already one of the most iconic stops on the F1 calendar, but The Vale feels like a very clear signal of where luxury sport hospitality is heading next. Less corporate box, more curated lifestyle experience. Less watching from a distance, more feeling embedded in the moment. Only those who join the waitlist will be invited to book, and pricing is available on application. If the British Grand Prix was already one of the chicest weekends on the British summer calendar, The Vale is set to make it even harder to do last-minute or do casually. Because this is not simply about watching the race. It is about arriving beautifully, being exactly where the action is, and experiencing Formula 1 in a way that feels polished, private and just exclusive enough to make everyone else ask how you got in.

There is a certain confidence to launching a new ultra-luxury waterfront development just moments from one that has already shattered records. But then, Edgeworth is not trying to arrive quietly. The latest project from billionaire developer Stephen Ross’s Related Ross, Edgeworth is set to bring a new level of refinement to West Palm Beach’s increasingly coveted waterfront, with two sculptural 28-storey towers, sweeping Intracoastal and Atlantic views, and the sort of wellness-led amenities that have become essential at the very top of the market. Set along South Flagler Drive, the new address follows the remarkable success of South Flagler House, the neighbouring development that became the first condominium project in West Palm Beach to surpass $1 billion in sales. But where that scheme proved the market was ready, Edgeworth feels designed to build on that momentum with a softer, more lifestyle-driven sense of luxury. A new waterfront address with Riviera influences Edgeworth will comprise 168 residences ranging from one- to five-bedroom homes, in addition to nine penthouses, all designed to maximise light, outlook and that effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle buyers increasingly expect from prime coastal living. The project’s architecture comes from Kohn Pedersen Fox, while interiors are being handled by MAWD | March and White Design, with the homes expected to embrace a refined, Riviera-inspired aesthetic. That design language feels fitting for a city that is evolving fast. West Palm Beach has become one of Florida’s most closely watched luxury markets, not only because of its waterfront setting, but because it is attracting a new wave of affluent buyers who want polish, privacy and proximity without sacrificing space or ease. Edgeworth appears to speak directly to that mood. Wellness, space and the new definition of luxury As with most top-tier developments now, the lifestyle offering is central to the sell. At Edgeworth, residents will have access to more than 90,000 square feet of amenities, with a strong emphasis on wellness and everyday living rather than purely decorative grandeur. That is very much where luxury real estate is heading: less about excess for the sake of it, and more about how beautifully a home supports the life lived inside it. The expansive terraces, water-facing orientation and resort-style amenity package all suggest a development that understands exactly what today’s buyers are after. This is the kind of property pitched not simply as somewhere to stay, but somewhere to retreat, entertain and properly exhale. West Palm Beach’s luxury rise shows no sign of slowing Edgeworth also arrives at a moment when West Palm Beach is continuing its transformation into a serious luxury and financial hub. Reporting around the project notes that since 2020, the city has drawn more than 250 financial firms, while high-end home values have risen sharply over the past decade. That momentum has fuelled demand for new waterfront residences at a level that would have felt ambitious only a few years ago. Pricing at Edgeworth is set to start from $2.5 million, with larger residences rising well beyond that, and construction is expected to begin in 2027, with completion targeted for 2029. The Life of Luxury view What makes Edgeworth compelling is not simply the scale of the scheme or the pedigree of the team behind it, though both are considerable. It is what the project says about West Palm Beach itself. This is no longer a market playing supporting role to Palm Beach. It is increasingly becoming a destination in its own right for buyers who want waterfront glamour, elevated design and the kind of contemporary luxury that feels as good as it looks. And Edgeworth, with its curved towers, sweeping views and quietly confident approach, is arriving at exactly the right moment. https://www.relatedross.com/

The Oscars may be Hollywood’s biggest night, but for fashion lovers, it is just as much about the red carpet as the awards themselves. And this year’s arrivals gave us exactly what we want from the Academy Awards: proper glamour, a little drama, polished tailoring and those standout looks you instantly want to save for reference. Rather than simply listing who wore what, these are the looks that truly lingered in our minds after the flashbulbs faded. 1. Jessie Buckley in Chanel 2. Demi Moore in Louis Vuitton 3.

For anyone dreaming of a life abroad, there is one detail becoming harder and harder to ignore: your pets. Because while once the fantasy of relocating centred around sea views, sunshine and a slower pace of life, today’s movers are asking a far more practical question too, can the dog come? Increasingly, the answer is shaping where people choose to live next. And right now, Portugal is pulling ahead as one of the most appealing destinations for pet owners planning an international move. According to Lisbon-based buyer’s agent Goldcrest, enquiries from relocating clients with pets are on the rise, with many citing Portugal’s relatively straightforward entry process, no-quarantine policy for compliant arrivals, and genuinely pet-friendly way of life as major deciding factors. In other words, it is not just a beautiful place to land, it is a place where pets can slot into daily life with surprising ease too. That matters more than ever in 2026, as pet travel continues to boom. Amadeus recently named pet travel as one of the six key trends shaping the year ahead, while research found that 27 per cent of pet owners in the UK and the United States travelled internationally with their pets for the first time in 2025. What was once a niche concern is quickly becoming a mainstream part of relocation planning. And if you have ever looked at your dog curled up on the sofa and thought, well, obviously you are coming with me, Portugal starts to make a lot of sense. Why Portugal feels different for pet owners There are countries that technically allow pets, and then there are countries where pets feel woven into the rhythm of life. Portugal seems to fall firmly into the second camp. From long coastal walks to leafy city parks and café terraces where dogs are often greeted with a smile rather than suspicion, it offers the kind of everyday ease pet owners actually notice. Lisbon and Porto, in particular, combine city living with accessible green space, outdoor culture and veterinary care that makes settling in feel less daunting. There is clearly a strong culture of animal ownership too. According to the European Federation of Companion Animal Food, Portugal ranks fourth in Europe for household dog ownership, with 39 per cent of households owning at least one dog. That sort of statistic says a lot. Pets are not treated as an afterthought here. They are part of family life. For people moving from busier, less flexible urban environments, that can be a huge draw. The practical side matters too Of course, even the most pet-loving destination loses its shine if the admin is a nightmare. Fortunately, Portugal’s entry rules are considered comparatively manageable, provided owners get organised. Healthy pets arriving from compliant countries can enter without quarantine, which is one of the country’s biggest advantages. For many owners, that alone will tip the scales. The idea of putting an animal through a long separation period after travel is enough to put some relocations off entirely. That said, “easy” does not mean casual. Portugal follows EU animal health rules, so documentation needs to be correct and carefully timed. Dogs, cats and ferrets travelling from EU countries need an EU pet passport, an ISO-compliant microchip and a valid rabies vaccination. Travellers arriving from non-EU countries, including the UK and US, need an official Veterinary Health Certificate issued within ten days of travel by an accredited veterinarian, as well as proof of microchipping and rabies vaccination. Owners must also notify the Portuguese veterinary authority, DGAV, at least 48 hours before arrival by emailing the relevant Travellers’ Entry Point at Lisbon, Porto or Faro airport. And from April 2026, that paperwork is likely to come under even sharper scrutiny. EU authorities are tightening enforcement of documentation standards, meaning mistakes that may once have slipped through could now cause delays or complications at the border. In particular, owners need to make sure that microchipping is done before rabies vaccination, as the sequence is critical. It is the sort of detail that can sound minor until it becomes a problem. Homes are being judged through a pet lens too Goldcrest says the rise in pet-owning buyers is also influencing what people want from property. This makes perfect sense. A move abroad is not just about whether you can get your pet into the country. It is about whether daily life will actually work once you are there. As a result, more buyers are prioritising homes with outdoor space, easy access to parks or coastal walking routes, and developments or landlords with clear pet policies already in place. The dream, it seems, is not simply a beautiful apartment in the sun, but somewhere the dog can trot happily to a morning café stop too. Barbara Queirós, Head of Real Estate at Goldcrest, puts it simply: “Sometimes a move abroad can happen sooner than expected. If relocating with pets might be on the horizon in the coming months, getting their vaccinations and paperwork ready in advance is a simple step that can save stress later. It may feel like extra admin for something you may not need, but being prepared ensures your pets can join you smoothly. Here in Portugal, we’ll be ready to welcome them.” Why this matters now There is a bigger shift happening here. Relocation decisions are becoming more emotional, more lifestyle-driven and, in many cases, more holistic. People are not just asking where they can afford to live or where the weather is good. They are asking where their actual life will work best — routines, wellbeing, family, animals and all. That is where Portugal is winning. It offers the climate and beauty people expect, but it also delivers something arguably more valuable: practicality with warmth. For pet owners, that combination can be the difference between a destination looking good on paper and genuinely feeling livable. So yes, the pastel buildings, Atlantic light and long lunches help. But for many movers in 2026, Portugal’s real luxury may be this: your pet gets to come too, and the transition does not have to feel impossible.

The next chapter of high-performance engineering may soon be unfolding in Stuttgart. German marque Porsche is reportedly working on a new halo supercar positioned above the legendary Porsche 911, signalling a renewed focus on ultra-premium models as the brand looks to boost profitability and reinforce its performance credentials. If realised, the model would effectively become the successor to the iconic Porsche 918 Spyder, the groundbreaking hybrid hypercar first introduced in 2013. According to comments made by Porsche CEO Michael Leiters, the company is actively exploring vehicles that sit above its current two-door sports cars and above its flagship SUVs, an indication that a new tier of Porsche models could soon emerge. A Potential Successor to the 918 Spyder The 918 Spyder remains one of Porsche’s most revered creations. When it debuted, the plug-in hybrid hypercar blended motorsport engineering with cutting-edge electrification, producing nearly 900 horsepower and becoming one of the fastest production cars in the world. A successor would likely follow a similar philosophy: combining extreme performance with advanced hybrid or electric technology. Industry speculation suggests the upcoming model could arrive with a variety of powertrain possibilities, including: A high-performance hybrid system, similar in concept to the 918 A fully electric hypercar architecture A new combustion-focused powertrain, potentially based on a shelved twin-turbo flat-eight engine Should it reach production, the car would likely compete directly with the next generation of ultra-exclusive hypercars, including the Ferrari F80 and McLaren W1. While Porsche has yet to reveal official specifications, one thing is almost certain: the model would represent the pinnacle of Porsche engineering, both in price and performance. Porsche’s Strategy: Fewer Cars, Higher Prices Alongside the hypercar project, Porsche is also exploring a new flagship SUV that would sit above the Porsche Cayenne in the brand’s lineup. Rumours of the vehicle, internally known as Project K1, have circulated for several years. The model is expected to be a three-row luxury SUV designed to compete with emerging high-end electric and performance SUVs such as the Rivian R1 and GMC Hummer EV. Earlier speculation suggested the SUV would be fully electric, but recent reports indicate the brand may instead offer hybrid or combustion options, reflecting evolving market demand and Porsche’s desire for greater flexibility. Crucially, the model could be priced well above the Cayenne, potentially exceeding $200,000, placing it firmly in the ultra-luxury performance segment. A New Era of Porsche Performance For Porsche enthusiasts, the prospect of a new hypercar sitting above the 911 is particularly exciting. Vehicles like the 918 Spyder have historically served as technological flagships, introducing innovations that later filter down across the brand’s lineup. While the project remains in its early stages, a new halo model would reinforce Porsche’s status as one of the world’s most respected performance manufacturers, and offer collectors a future icon in the making. If the rumours prove true, the next Porsche hypercar could once again redefine what a modern supercar looks like.

The statement accessory spotted on Harry Styles in New York is the Chanel 25 Leopard Pony‑Hair Flap Bag, a standout piece from Chanel’s Métiers d’Art 2026 collection designed by Matthieu Blazy. The bag first appeared on the runway during Chanel’s New York Métiers d’Art show and quickly became one of the most talked-about accessories from the collection. It features pony-hair leopard print, a slouchy flap silhouette and signature gold chain straps, giving it a bold, textured look that instantly stands out against minimalist outfits. Styles was spotted wearing it while heading to a Saturday Night Live  cast dinner, pairing the bag with a navy sweater, vintage-style jeans and loafers, letting the Chanel piece act as the focal point of the look. Key Details Bag: Chanel 25 Leopard Pony-Hair Flap Bag Collection: Métiers d’Art 2026 Material: Pony hair with leopard print Strap: Gold chain shoulder strap Estimated price: Around $8,500 (approx. £6,700) when released Availability: Expected to hit boutiques later in 2026 The moment has already sparked buzz online, with many fashion editors suggesting the bag could become one of the next “it” Chanel pieces once it officially launches. In true Harry Styles fashion, the look proves that sometimes the simplest outfit only needs one bold luxury accessory to make headlines.

Nearly two decades after it first defined the intersection of fashion and film, The Devil Wears Prada  is officially returning to the big screen. A sequel is now in development at The Walt Disney Company, bringing back the original cast who made the 2006 film a cultural phenomenon. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt are all confirmed to reprise their iconic roles as Miranda Priestly, Andy Sachs and Emily Charlton. The first teaser trailer has now dropped, offering a glimpse into the long-anticipated return to the fashion world that captivated audiences and insiders alike. What the New Trailer Reveals Set to Vogue by Madonna, the teaser blends nostalgia with a new chapter in the Prada  universe. The trailer opens with familiar glimpses of the fashion industry’s most feared editor, Miranda Priestly, delivering the kind of icy wit that made the original unforgettable. In one moment, she turns to Andy and remarks: “Wait, wait. I hope that’s not what you’re wearing tonight.” Alongside returning favourites, viewers also catch glimpses of Stanley Tucci reprising Nigel, while new additions to the cast include Simone Ashley, Lady Gaga, Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, and B. J. Novak. The teaser ends with a prompt to secure tickets ahead of the film’s highly anticipated 1 May 2026 release. Nearly 20 Years After the Original When The Devil Wears Prada  premiered in 2006, it quickly became a defining film of the fashion world. Inspired by Lauren Weisberger’s bestselling novel, widely believed to draw from her time working at Vogue  under editor Anna Wintour, the film offered a sharp, glamorous look behind the scenes of a major fashion publication. Miranda Priestly’s famous line, “Everybody wants to be us,”  became shorthand for the magnetic power of fashion media, and the ruthless standards behind it. For years, a sequel seemed unlikely. Many of the film’s stars had moved on to major careers, and the story appeared complete. Yet the enduring popularity of the film, along with a renewed appetite for nostalgic sequels, has finally brought the Runway universe back to life. What the Story Might Explore Plot details remain tightly guarded, but early reports suggest the sequel will reflect how dramatically the media and fashion landscape has changed since the first film. Miranda Priestly is still firmly entrenched in the fashion industry, though the dominance of traditional print magazines has declined in the digital age. Meanwhile, Emily Charlton has risen through the ranks and now works as an executive at a powerful luxury group, controlling advertising budgets that Miranda may desperately need. That dynamic sets the stage for a compelling reunion between two of the franchise’s most memorable characters. When Can We Watch It? Fashion fans won’t have long to wait. The sequel is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on 1 May 2026, giving audiences just enough time to revisit the original before Miranda Priestly’s next chapter begins. And if the teaser is any indication, the return to Runway will once again remind us of one thing: in the world of fashion, power never truly goes out of style.

The Malibu property market has welcomed another celebrity listing, as Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot places her oceanfront penthouse on the market for $8.8 million. Perfectly positioned along Malibu’s famed Carbon Beach, often referred to as “Billionaire’s Beach” — the three-bedroom residence sits between the city’s iconic pier and the celebrity-favoured restaurant Nobu Malibu. The home offers front-row views of the Pacific and direct access to one of Southern California’s most coveted stretches of sand. A Celebrity Retreat on Billionaire’s Beach Gadot purchased the Malibu penthouse in 2020 for $5 million, the same year she starred in Wonder Woman 1984  and ranked among the world’s highest-paid actresses. Located within a gated four-unit complex built in the early 1980s, the residence spans roughly 2,000 square feet and has undergone a full renovation. The design leans into Malibu’s relaxed coastal aesthetic with cream-toned interiors, dark hardwood floors and natural textures throughout. One of the standout features is the step-down living room, where a wood-beamed skylight sits within a lime-washed ceiling. A sleek tubular fireplace anchors the space, while floor-to-ceiling glass walls open directly onto a covered oceanfront terrace. The balcony, complete with a fire pit and sweeping Pacific views, is arguably the apartment’s showpiece, offering a quintessential Malibu setting for sunset evenings overlooking the water. Inside the Penthouse The residence includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, designed with a clean, contemporary feel that allows the ocean views to remain the focal point. Highlights include: A compact yet elegant kitchen fitted with custom cabinetry, granite countertops and high-end appliances A breakfast bar and adjacent dining space overlooking the living area A cozy media room with angled windows and recessed lighting A primary suite featuring a custom walk-in wardrobe and spa-style bathroom Outside the apartment, the property offers 80 feet of frontage on Carbon Beach, alongside a two-car garage and secure guest parking for up to eight vehicles, a rarity along Malibu’s tightly held coastline. Monthly homeowners’ association fees are reported to be around $1,200. Gadot’s Expanding Global Property Portfolio Born in Israel, Gadot first rose to global recognition through the Fast & Furious  franchise before becoming synonymous with the role of Wonder Woman in the DC Extended Universe. In 2025, she made history as the first Israeli actor to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Alongside her husband, Israeli real-estate developer Yaron Varsano, the couple maintains an international property portfolio that includes a home in Tel Aviv and a mansion in the Hollywood Hills, purchased for around $5.6 million a decade ago. With Malibu’s coastal property market continuing to attract A-list buyers and investors alike, Gadot’s Carbon Beach penthouse represents a rare opportunity to acquire a celebrity-owned residence on one of California’s most exclusive stretches of coastline.

If your idea of the perfect holiday home includes sea views, sunset cocktails on the veranda, and morning tennis followed by a dip in the pool, a newly listed villa on Barbados’ coveted west coast may tick every box. “Go Easy,” a six-bedroom hilltop estate within the exclusive Sugar Hill community in St. James, has just come onto the market for $6.2 million. Set within more than an acre of lush tropical gardens, the property captures the relaxed elegance the Caribbean is famous for, with the space and privacy of a private resort. Designed for indoor-outdoor island living, the villa spans 10,000 square feet and takes full advantage of its elevated position overlooking the sea. A generous west-facing veranda frames spectacular sunset views, while open-air lounges and dining terraces encourage long evenings outdoors. A Villa Built for Caribbean Living Inside, the property balances classic Caribbean architecture with modern comforts. The main residence features airy living spaces that flow seamlessly onto the veranda and pool terrace — the kind of layout that naturally shifts between relaxed family mornings and elegant evening entertaining. Four guest bedrooms sit within the main house, each with its own private balcony overlooking the gardens or coastline. The interiors are designed to feel light and breezy, with high ceilings, neutral tones and large windows that bring the outdoors in. A cosy TV lounge and fully equipped kitchen complete the living spaces, while the layout ensures that guests and family members each have their own private retreat. Resort-Style Amenities at Home The real magic of Go Easy, however, lies outside. At the centre of the property is a large freeform swimming pool and Jacuzzi, surrounded by sun terraces and tropical landscaping. A charming gazebo offers a shaded place to relax beside the pool, or to watch friends and family play on the villa’s private floodlit tennis court, a rare feature even among luxury Caribbean homes. There’s also a covered barbecue patio with a sit-up bar, making alfresco lunches and sunset drinks a daily ritual rather than a holiday indulgence. Perfect for Hosting Guests For owners who enjoy hosting, the estate includes a separate guest cottage overlooking the pool terrace. Inside are two additional en-suite bedrooms and a kitchenette, allowing visiting friends or extended family to enjoy complete privacy during longer stays.

Three pioneering musicians collaborate with Bentley Mulliner to create a one-of-a-kind Continental GTC that celebrates creativity, sound and female excellence. In a striking celebration of artistry and craftsmanship, Bentley has unveiled a one-of-a-kind Bentley Continental GTC designed in collaboration with three trailblazing women from the world of music. Created to mark International Women's Day, the bespoke convertible blends luxury automotive design with the personal creative signatures of celebrated organist Anna Lapwood, Grammy-nominated cellist Tina Guo, and pioneering DJ-producer Sister Bliss of Faithless. Brought to life by the artisans at Bentley’s Crewe headquarters and crafted through Bentley Mulliner, the brand’s bespoke and coachbuilding division, the car represents a harmonious fusion of music, luxury and personal storytelling. The finished Continental GTC will make its public debut this weekend at a female-focused Cars & Coffee gathering held at Bicester Motion, hosted in collaboration with What She Drives. A Symphony in Colour and Craft The collaboration began with a visit to Bentley’s Crewe campus in 2025, where the three musicians worked alongside Mulliner designers to translate their creative influences into automotive design. The exterior makes an immediate statement with Peacock Satin paint, paired with striking Tornado Red accents along the front bumper and rear diffuser. Matching red detailing continues on the wing mirrors and brake calipers, while the ten-spoke 22-inch wheels feature peacock satin pockets contrasted with bright-machined faces. Inside, the cabin continues the visual symphony. A rich base of Imperial Blue leather is contrasted by Pillar Box Red accents and elegant gold detailing, creating a bold yet refined interior palette. Contrast stitching in blue, red and gold threads highlights key areas of the cabin, while headrest bezels finished in Imperial Blue satin replace the traditional chrome. Personal Signatures from Three Artists Each musician contributed a bespoke element that reflects their artistic identity. For Tina Guo, the focal point is the Copper Stone veneer fascia. Crafted from genuine stone just 0.6 mm thick, the surface evokes ancient landscapes and natural textures, a nod to the tribal musical influences behind her latest creative project. Sister Bliss introduced a distinctive soundwave embroidery design, marking the first time Bentley has incorporated such a motif into its interiors. Inspired by the waveform graphics used in music production, the pattern is subtly stitched across the seats and doors in Imperial Blue thread, while the convertible’s tonneau cover features the design in striking Pillar Box Red. The waveform motif even appears as an animated puddle lamp projection when the doors open. Anna Lapwood’s bespoke contribution celebrates the instrument that defines her career. Bentley’s air vent controls, known as “Organ Stops” due to their similarity to those found on a pipe organ, have been finished in 24-carat gold, creating a tactile and symbolic link between the worlds of music and craftsmanship. The Soundtrack to the Journey The final detail is perhaps the most personal. A polished stainless-steel plaque on the centre console features the laser-engraved signatures of the three artists alongside a scannable code linking to a curated playlist on Spotify. When scanned, the code unlocks a bespoke soundtrack selected by Lapwood, Guo and Sister Bliss, designed to be experienced through the car’s Bang & Olufsen audio system with its anodised gold and black speaker grilles. It’s a subtle yet powerful reminder that this Bentley is not only about design, it’s about the sound and stories that inspired it. Celebrating a New Era of Female Creativity The collaboration also honours the extraordinary achievements of the women behind the project. Anna Lapwood MBE has captivated millions by redefining classical organ performance for modern audiences. Tina Guo has shaped the sound of blockbuster cinema, performing on scores for films such as Dune , Top Gun: Maverick  and Inception . Meanwhile, Sister Bliss helped redefine electronic music as a founding member of Faithless, whose iconic track Insomnia  remains one of the most influential dance records of all time. Together, they represent a powerful cross-section of modern music, classical, cinematic and electronic — brought together through the shared language of creativity. Following its debut, the Extraordinary Women Continental GTC will join Bentley’s UK press fleet for several months before eventually being offered for sale, leaving behind a legacy that goes far beyond luxury motoring. It is, quite simply, a rolling composition, one where music, craftsmanship and design play perfectly in harmony.
