Vilebrequin is a French luxury fashion label launched by Fred Prysquel in 1971 that specialises in swimwear and ready-to-wear for men and women. Prysquel created a longer boxer-short style swimsuit which was designed from spinnaker cloth and it was bright, original and designed to dry quickly in the sun.
In 2012, the brand was acquired by the American company, G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.
