Meet Vilebrequin

If you haven’t been to Vilebrequin at 150 Worth Avenue,  carve out some time to visit this amazing Men’s boutique.

The collections are unique and fun. Perfect for gifts for the men in your life.  Look like you stepped out of a magazine,  the “Father & Son” Collection is our favorite.

We were fortunate enough to chat with  Daniel Jenkins, Store Manager for a few minutes.

Tell us about how your company got started.  How long ago?

First fashioned out a checkered tablecloth from a terrace café, the signature Vilebrequin cut made its debut in 1971 in St. Tropez. Made from a spinnaker textile with a remarkable dry time, the revolutionary new design became an overnight success with jetsetters and celebrities. 

Where does the inspiration come from or how do you choose your products you sell?

We currently have two collections per year. A “Cruise” collection in the heart of winter to accompany you on your holiday travels, and a “High Summer” collection to celebrate your vacation wardrobe. For more than 15 years, artistic director Isabel “Zaza” de Brito has designed each of our unique prints. She draws inspiration from her travels and from the beauty of everyday subjects. Each year up to 70 designs are created, and a collection of over 300 pieces emerge from those initial sketches.

What do you love about Palm Beach? Besides the weather- LOL

Palm Beach has always been a beautiful memory from my childhood. Growing up in Palm Beach County, I was always coming to the Island to take advantage of our naturally beautiful surroundings. Our gorgeous beach, and the incomparable Worth avenue have always been my favorite places to enjoy.  I have to pinch myself everyday that I have the privilege of working in our very own paradise.

Tell us your favorite products that you sell and why?

Vilebrequin created the concept of “Like Father, Like Son”.  Many of the swim trunks we offer for men also come in coordinating sizes for boys to match their fathers.  It’s always fun to help families choose their matching sets. We also created a limited edition “Where’s Waldo?” suit to mark his 25th anniversary.  It’s one of my personal favorites, and been one of our top sellers since its release.

Give us 3 Words that describe your company.

Quality, Refinement, and Fun.

Swimwear at 150 WORTH

Halfway through Spring and well on the way to a sunny summer, the search for a perfect beach day look begins at 150 WORTH.

The secret to looking great in the sun really lies in a buyer’s ability to dress for their body type. While this may seem like a daunting task at first, world-class service and an extraordinary selection to choose from makes shopping for swimwear enjoyable at 150 WORTH.

For an athletic, straight boy-shaped body, stick to bikinis because they break up the body’s straight line. Ruffles or a ring bandeau add dimension.

Try Onda De Mar Swim Goa Ruffle Bikini Top & Bottom from Saks Fifth Avenue.

A look like Mara Hoffman’s Feather Strappy Bandeau Bikini Top and Bottom is also a great pick from Saks.

If your body is larger through the bottom, like a pear-shape, a higher-waisted bottom is a trendy fix. Check out styles from 6 Shore Road at Saks Fifth Avenue.

6 Shore Road Chloe Bikini Top and High-Waisted Bikini Bottom.

Looking to show more skin? A classic string bikini will showcase plenty of thigh.

Mini Flora Infinity Triangle Bikini from Gucci.

Take the plunge. Showing cleavage is another way to take the focus off of a large bottom.

Michael Kors One-Piece Skirted Empire Swimsuit in Sapphire from Neiman Marcus.

Short torsos and apple shapes look exquisite in bold hues, sweet details and streamlined graphics. X patterns do an excellent job creating a slim shape.

Carmen Marc Valvo One-Piece Illusion Swimsuit from Saks FifthAvenue.

Lanky girls love cut outs to give shape and bandaus that tie in the middle to create volume.

Herve Leger Cap-Sleeve One-Piece Bandage Swimsuit in black combo catches the eye for all the right reasons.

Gucci Fuchsia Pink Gathered Front One-Piece is a great option too.

No matter what your body shape, at 150 WORTH you will find the merchandise and expertise to guarantee lots of confidence at the pool.
