Working closely with the team at Bentley Istanbul, the craftspeople from Bentley's Mulliner bespoke division chose an accent colour concept for the Istanbul Silhouette Collection that is inspired by both the rich blue and turquoise hues of the Bosphorus Strait that connects the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara, and the open skies reflected in its waters.

On the exterior, striking Black Sapphire paint provides the perfect canvas for sporty highlights in 'Dragonfly' blue, such as the blue strip to the carbon side skirts and the special Silhouette tread plates. The colour theme carries on throughout each car's interior, with special Istanbul Silhouette embroidery of the city's Maiden's Tower, the Galata Tower and the famous bridges over the Bosphorus displayed in Dragonfly Blue across the headrests and cushions in the rear. These are covered with hides of Imperial Blue and Beluga, inspired by the clear blue patterned tiles of the famous Sultanahmet Mosque.

Further distinguishing the Istanbul Silhouette Collection models, 'Piano Imperial Blue' wood and natural jewel-like 'Galaxy' stone feature on the front panel and infotainment area, while another personalised feature is the specially designed key box that serves as a reminder of the exclusive nature of the car and the equally remarkable location.
