CHEAT THE COLD IN STYLE

Here at Vilebrequin HQ, we strongly encourage you to cheat… the cold! So grab some suitable snacks and get ready for game night with our new Beach at Home loungewear collection―a winning combination of warmth, comfort, playfulness, and elegance.

#1 CARD GAME: TAROT DE MARSEILLE

When did cartomancy get so fancy?! Circa 1500, when tarot de Marseille first arrived in the South of France via Milan and the Piedmont. It’s been a French institution ever since, capturing the imagination of artists. Manifest beautiful things for 2024 with two ultra-chic art editions: the recently re-released 1984 surrealist illustrations of Salvador Dalí (Taschen) and the very Olé Olé! version by Rossy de Palma for Le Bon Marché.

#1 BALL GAME: LA PÉTANQUE MOLLE

Great news: pétanque is not just for summer!  Make the most of the low season to perfect your spin with an ingenious “soft” pétanque kit. Engineers have spent years studying the perfect “boule” to give you the same weight and sensation as the traditional version while ensuring you don’t ruin your parquet flooring… For a little touch of Saint-Tropez on a rainy day.

#1 BOARD GAME: MONOPOLY AU SOLEIL or ARK NOVA

We’re not talking about the classic version of Monopoly, oh no! Pack your bags for Provence, Aruba, or Saint Barts this winter with the ultra-coveted regional editions. A nice hotel on  Anse des Flamands sounds perfect right now. If you don’t fancy risking a trip to jail, Ark Nova is a fun alternative. Voted “As d’Or” at the 2023 International Games Festival in Cannes (it’s a whole thing), Ark Nova invites players to manage a zoo and support animal conservation projects. 100% sea turtle-approved.

#1 VIDEO GAME: UNDER THE WAVES

Part of a new generation of video games exploring the richness and diversity of France’s landscapes. Created by Ronan Coiffec, “Under The Waves” is a love letter to our oceans that takes place just off the coast of Brittany. Put yourself in the flippers of a professional diver as you swim your way through caves, wrecks, and precious living ecosystems. Completely hypnotic.
