Editor's notes: Founded in 1971, Vilebrequin has been in the business of high-end swimwear for over 50 years, achieving a cult-like status thanks to its focus on durable, high-quality tailoring and sustainable practices.
We've collaborated with the brand to deliver a selection that has you covered for a day swimming at the pool or (if you're unphased by what may lay beneath it) the sea.
The 16-piece drop is an ode to the essence of St. Tropez, the French coastal town where artists and supermodels are known to flock and where Vilebrequin first set up shop.
Once a fishing village and now a premium destination for those wanting to explore what the Mediterranean coast of Southeastern France has to offer, the collection is our interpretation of 1970s St. Tropez. It looks back at a time when rich and famous faces populated its beaches and the town played host to Mick and Bianca Jagger's wedding.
Imagined for days on the sun-drenched French Riviera, the release includes an array of pieces, spanning from colorful beach towels to graphic hoodies and a selection of Vilebrequin's signature swimwear.

Available in light blue, orange, or with green and white stripes, the co-branded trunks come with matching camp collar shirting and summer accessories for a full look.
As with all things Vilebrequin, the drop is not only designed to be worn this summer but to accompany you on every vacation from here on in. Thanks to the brand's in-house repair service, its swimwear can literally last you a lifetime.
As the brand's CEO, Roland Herlory, told us: "If you invest in a bathing suit that lasts a lifetime, then it's not really expensive... your bathing suit carries the memories of past holidays. Vilebrequin shorts aren't complete until they're worn. It's the person that gives the product its soul."
