CRAFTSMANSHIP

Since 1971, the luxury swimwear brand Vilebrequin has learned to master the art of swimming costume to create exceptional models. Its manufacture requires nearly 49 steps.

OUR EXPERTISE

PATTERNS/b>

Exclusive designs, imagined and drawn by the Vilebrequin studio.

WEAVING

Most of our swim shorts are made from a unique material: polyamide (a very dense yarn such as microfiber).
The weaving process is exclusive, and the fabric is emerized to soften the touch.

COLORS<

A wide palette of colors is used to print our luxury swim shorts, all in compliance with OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 regulations.

IMPRESSION INKJET

Inkjet printing offers endless colors and details.
This technique reproduces even the most complex patterns with precision, at a speed of 30 meters per hour.

    FINISHES

    BACK POCKET PREPARATION

    The flap back pocket is positioned manually to align perfectly with the printed design.
The stitching of our swim shorts includes multiple reinforcement tacks at key areas (side pockets and back pocket).

    SIDE SEAM ASSEMBLING

    The seams are constructed using an “off-arm” machine with a four-strand twisted cordonnet thread.
This makes our swim shorts as clean on the inside as they are on the outside and ensures long-lasting durability.

    EYELET PLACEMENT

    Eyelets placed at the back of the swim short allow water to drain and prevent the “ballooning” effect.

    BRAND LABEL STITCHING

    At the back, the Vilebrequin label is precisely stitched at the center of the waistband, securing the drawstring.

    DRAWSTRING
    The Vilebrequin drawstring is assembled entirely by hand inside the waistband.

    TIPS ASSEMBLING
    Stainless zamak tips (an alloy of zinc, aluminum, and magnesium), engraved with the Vilebrequin logo, complete our classic swim shorts.

      POLYAMIDE AND POLYESTER

      Our polyamide and polyester swimsuits undergo special treatment in order to be quick-dry. Some contain elastane for more elasticity and comfort.
