enswear exudes courage and adventure this season with all the color and print options available. While broad stripes, floral designs and microprint graphics elevate the leading actor status of shirts and t-shirts, suits capture all different shades of the sky’s blue and meld with already popular earth tones. You can find the key trend pieces of the season in the Spring/Summer 2018 collection from Sayki, the reliable style partner for today’s modern urbanite and his timeless style. Duotone prints in varying shades of the same color family are cut in functional forms and come together in lightweight layers. Modernized plaid takes center-stage on polo shirts and viscose/cotton pieces. Summer is here!

This year, the Sayki collection focuses on the balance between pieces that may not necessarily feel like they go together. With unusual combinations, the Sayki man challenges the fast pace of today’s urban jungle. Vest-jacket combinations in differing textures is the defining style trend this season. White pants combined with colorful accessories add a playful twist to classic choices in a refined way.

Throughout the collection, you’ll find summer colors in both elegant and casual styles. Bomber jackets for breezy summer evenings and lightweight and often unlined sports blazers are coupled with comfortable pants and shorts. For those looking to capture a distinct style in eveningwear, there’s something for everyonewhether you’re looking for the classic black, playful navy or one of the trendy colors of the season such as burgundy, beige and gray.

The right fragrance reflects the true essence of a man without him even having to say a word. While you can choose your fragrance based on the time of day or the occasion, why not also consider what kind of an impression you wish to make upon first meeting.

Here are three fragrance options for the Sayki man.

Comic-Con, San Diego, California, U.S.A.

WHAT’S TRENDING THIS SEASON

Less is definitely more this season, as ‘normal’ takes over menswear and the normcore trend is widely celebrated in non-traditional designs and in unique ways. Natural fibers, smaller figures in print designs, overdyed backgrounds come together in sharp cuts and oversized fits. Here’s a look at some of the noteworthy trends in menswear today.

Vertical stripes

Stripes come in all different shapes, sizes and styles this season. Summer styles definitively bring wide vertical stripes into men’s fashion. The safest bet is to pair these stripes with solid wardrobe staples.

If you’re feeling bold, you can definitely take a stab at combining two different kinds of stripes in a single outfit.

Suits in color

16

One of the most utilized items in your wardrobe during the summer months is the t-shirt. Of course, dressing with a casual top doesn’t always have to mean an athletic or a too-relaxed t-shirt. Try pairing polo shirts with your jackets this summer. If you choose to go collarless, that’s OK too. This is also the year to experiment with color and print, so be sure to experiment.

If you’ve ever wanted to venture out of the traditional black, navy and gray color palette of your suit, now is the time. You can even find tuxedos in a variety of summer colors this season. Some of our favorites are off-white, light gray and pastel blue.

florals

Florals continue to be a leading trend; however, they take on darker, more melancholic shapes and colors this year. There’s less color but more detail-an overdyed color palette creates faded prints. Microprints are all the rage as you still see a few of the larger floral patterns from past seasons.

Raw denim

18

Starting in 2018, denim is now preferred in raw or minimally washed styles. These versatile jeans can either serve as the look’s foundation as you highlight a statement piece, or get paired with a minimalistic top to capture the normcore style.

The groom can pick a color or color palette and ask his groomsmen to choose their own tuxedos but only from that particular color scheme. For example, if the groom is wearing a white tuxedo, he can ask the groomsman to pick from the classic black and navy choices from the same style tuxedo as his.

hu number of groomsmen in today’s wedding keeps increasing every year. From best friends to family members, groomsmen are always ready to assist while preparing for and on the day of the wedding. More often, they are dressed in a pre-chosen and styled tuxedo to set them apart from the rest of the wedding guests. Then again, this doesn’t mean a groomsman can’t personalize his look and express his own style sensibility.

THE GREEN HILLS OF AFRICA

From Kenya, Tanzania, Zimbabwe to Botswana and South Africa, staying in luxury camps while experiencing the wild life across the African plains is now one of the most popular vacation choices.

Experienced traveler, journalist and founder of EspeciallyAfrica.com, Sebnem Denktas shares her best tips for your next Safari-whether you’re a novice or a repeat visitor.

me to try and I do. My companions, many of whom have been living in Africa for years, object. What if a lion or an elephant cross my path? What if my horse is spooked? I don’t think about all that can go wrong. I’m paired with a thoroughbred that is a good fit for my skill level and ride into the slopes of Kilimanjaro and Chyulu Hills with my guides Paul and Peter leading the way. The impala are leaping away in the distance and giraffes are passing by as we ride. A hyena stops in his tracks as if to greet us. I come close to falling off several times as my horse is, in fact, spooked on occasion. I’m never afraid; always able to regain control. Day in and day out, I’m on the back of that horse, riding my safaris. If you ask me how I feel, I can honestly say I’ve never felt happier or freer in my life. On my way out of Tsavo, I know that I will be back visiting ol Donyo soon, knowing exactly how Ernest Hemingway might have felt when he visited.

As soon as I’m up, I run to the patio, filled with the excitement of waking up to views of Mount Kilimanjaro. I’m somewhere in between the Tsavo and Amboseli National Parks located in southern Kenya. I’m blown away by the elephant herds taking a morning stroll among the acacia trees sprinkled across the savannah. And, of course, there’s Mount Kilimanjaro standing tall right across from me, glowing with its snowy peak.

There’s more… I turn my head and notice the Chyulu Hills mountain range. As I take it all in, I’m reminded of Ernest Hemingway. He was so impressed with these lands that he ended up writing two books on the subject: Green Hills of Africa and The Snows of Kilimanjaro. Hemingway captured the exact essence of my feelings when he said: “I never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke up and was not happy.”

This is my first trip to Tsavo even though I’ve been to Kenya numerous times before. As soon as I get off the plane, I wonder to myself why I haven’t traveled here before. There’s infinite tranquility all around, inspiring spirituality, coupled with uncharted wildlife beyond my expectations. I notice the vultures circling above as I make my way to the lodge. This can only mean one thing: there’s a kill close by. My guide Jeremiah confirms that he thinks the neighboring lion pride probably caught something. We’re both excited to explore the surroundings to see if we can find anything. And we’re not wrong: after a 45-minute search, we find a lioness and her two cubs enjoying a gazelle for dinner. The vultures are patiently waiting above. When it’s their turn,

If you’re considering a safari trip this year, I recommend you stay at one of the Great Plains Conservation camps. Leaders of conservation tourism, among the co-founders of this special group are Dereck and Beverly Joubert of National Geographic documentary fame. they’ll descend for their share.

The ol Donyo Lodge, where I’m staying in Tsavo, is the most luxurious accommodation in the region. A member of the Relais & Chateaux group, the lodge borders the Chyulu Hills National Park and boasts the best reviews from previous guests. Spread over 275,000 acres of wild life, the lodge is made up of 10 villas, none of which are alike. Built with a variety of materials including stone, wood and reed, six of the villas each feature a pool. All the villas, which are made up of a living room, a bedroom and a bathroom, are decorated with contemporary African furniture and photographs of the local landscape. Indoor and outdoor showers, footed bathtubs, desks, netted four-poster beds and outdoor lounge

furniture are some of the other key amenities included in your stay. All the villas boast a second floor and another patio, in case you wish to sleep outside while star gazing. Yes, there’s a bed in this outdoor hideaway. If you can manage to forget about the lions and hyenas who stroll into the campgrounds to drink from the pools at night, sleeping outdoors while watching the African night sky is definitely a rare experience… As part of the Great Plains Conservation, ol Donyo’s luxurious amenities are truly unparalleled.

What really took my breath away during this incredible experience was the horseback safari experience. This is why I took riding lessons for so many years—my dreams come true. Annie, one of the lodge managers and a friend, encourages

BOTSWANA

The horseback safari is a must. www.greatplainsconservation.com

HOW TO SAFARI

My tips for those who want to safari in Africa this year: WHERE TO GO: If this will be your first safari or you truly want to only experience what nature has to offer, I recommend Kenya or Tanzania as your safari destination. These two countries are located in East Africa and allow you to take in what’s quintessential Africa – the vast plains and the wildlife. If you have some safari experience under your belt, then try Botswana and Zambia this time where you’ll be slightly more challenged in navigating the landscape. Photography buffs must travel to Kenya and Tanzania during the Great Migration. If your safari agenda must include more urban experiences such as culinary adventures and shopping, then you can go to South Africa. A couple of days in Cape Town followed by a safari in Kruger would make the perfect itinerary.

HOW TO GET THERE Turkish Airlines has daily flights to many of the major destinations in Africa.

WHAT TO WEAR What you wear on a safari

is an important detail of your trip. Comfort is key but you don’t have to put together an all-camouflage wardrobe. It is, however, important to pay attention to your color palette to blend in with your environment and the wildlife. Tan, beige, cream and khaki colored clothes work best. During the day, you’ll be most comfortable in lightweight shirts and t-shirts. Early in the morning and later at night, it is much colder. Fleece jackets or downfilled coats are a must, along with a wool hat.

Sneakers, loafers and comfortable boots are all options for your footwear. At camp, you can walk around in your summer clothes. Make sure to pack a swimsuit if you camp has a pool.

BEWARE If you’re based in Turkey, make sure to make an appointment with the Travel Health Center (seyahatsagligi.gov.tr) about 20 days before your trip. Healthcare specialists here will be able to give you the latest and best information on precautions you will need to take against infectious diseases like malaria and yellow fever.
