The Algeria print — bold green snakeskin, fierce and unapologetic — is the print that made Beyoncé stop. It doesn't ask for attention. It requires it. On a yacht, that energy is everything.
A yacht is not the place for overthinking your outfit. It is the place for the one piece that makes everyone else feel underdressed the moment you step aboard.
The Algeria print was worn by Beyoncé for a reason. It is the print of a woman who has arrived — not just at a location, but at herself. The green snakeskin flows in the sea breeze, catches the light on deck, and moves the way confidence moves: unhurried, inevitable, impossible to ignore. From St. Barts to Capri to the South of France, it belongs on every body of water worth sailing.
Worn by Beyoncé, Lupita Nyong'o, Gabrielle Union and women around the world who refuse to go unnoticed · Sizes 0–24 · Ships in 24–48 hours
"I wore the Algeria Shirt Dress on a yacht charter in the South of France and was stopped three times before lunch."

How to Dress for a Yacht Day
The Alexandra Goddess Kaftan worn over a swimsuit is the ultimate yacht outfit — it photographs beautifully on deck, handles the sea breeze effortlessly, and transitions from sun lounger to sundowner without a wardrobe change. Pack one kaftan. Skip the rest.
For a yacht dinner or evening charter, the Algeria Shirt Dress or Bella Pencil Dress delivers the kind of presence a yacht setting demands. The green snakeskin catches light beautifully at golden hour and reads as intentional luxury — whether you are in St. Barts or Monaco.
The Rafaela Crop Top and Pants Set is the yacht deck look for the woman who doesn't do understated. Bold, intentional, completely unapologetic. Wear it with confidence or don't wear it at all.
Every Sai Sankoh piece is designed to fit sizes 0 through 24. The goddess kaftans are one-size-fits-all — which means they actually fit all. On a yacht, that matters.
Yacht Style Guide
Everything you need to know before you step aboard
What should women wear on a yacht?
A yacht calls for effortless elegance — nothing too casual, nothing overdressed. A luxury kaftan or flowing shirt dress worn over a swimsuit is the signature daytime yacht look. For sundowners or dinner on board, a printed jumpsuit or pencil dress elevates the moment. Bold prints like the Algeria collection read as intentional and elevated at sea — they move beautifully in the breeze and photograph magnificently against open water.
What should I wear on a yacht in St. Barts?
St. Barts has one of the most sophisticated yacht cultures in the world. The standard is elevated resort wear — a goddess kaftan, a bold printed shirt dress, or a statement jumpsuit. The Algeria print, with its green snakeskin energy, was made for exactly this harbour. Worn by Beyoncé and women who command every room they enter, it is the print that signals you belong on a yacht in St. Barts — before you say a word.
Can I wear a kaftan on a yacht?
A kaftan is one of the most yacht-appropriate pieces you can wear. It moves beautifully in the sea breeze, covers a swimsuit elegantly, and photographs spectacularly on deck against open water. Sai Sankoh goddess kaftans are one-size-fits-all in Georgette and Silk Viscose — both handle sea air beautifully and pack completely flat. The Alexandra Goddess Kaftan in the Algeria print is the definitive yacht kaftan.
What colors look best on a yacht?
Bold, rich prints photograph spectacularly against open water and bright sky. The Algeria print's green snakeskin reads as powerful and luxurious at sea — it catches the light and holds its presence whether you are on deck at noon or at dinner at sunset. Avoid all white on a yacht — it reads as casual rather than elevated. Opt instead for a print that makes the water the backdrop, not the competition.
What should I wear to a yacht party?
A yacht party calls for something that turns heads without requiring effort. The Algeria Shirt Dress — green snakeskin, flowing, effortlessly sexy — is exactly this. The Bella Pencil Dress is the choice for a more structured evening look. The Rafaela Crop Top and Pants Set is for the woman who has decided tonight is her night. All three are in the Algeria print. All three were made for open water.
What shoes should I wear on a yacht?
Flat sandals or bare feet are the standard on deck — practical and elegant. For a yacht dinner or harbour-side evening, a strappy heeled sandal in a neutral tone works beautifully with the Algeria Shirt Dress or Bella Pencil Dress. Avoid stilettos entirely on a boat. The right kaftan or dress makes footwear almost irrelevant — the print carries the look from the moment you board.
What should I wear on a private charter?
A private charter is the occasion for your most intentional resort wear. Build around one strong print — a goddess kaftan for the day, a shift to the shirt dress or jumpsuit for the evening. The Algeria collection gives you a complete charter wardrobe: kaftan, shirt dress, pants, jumpsuit, and pencil dress. Everything works together. Everything photographs beautifully on the water.
What should I wear from day to night on a yacht?
The key to day-to-night dressing on a yacht is one print, multiple silhouettes. During the day: the Alexandra Goddess Kaftan over a swimsuit, flat sandals, no effort required. As the sun drops: the Algeria Shirt Dress, belted, with a heeled sandal. For a formal dinner on board or in the harbour: the Bella Pencil Dress or Genesis Jumpsuit. The Algeria print holds its presence in every light — noon, golden hour, and candlelit evening equally.
