Vilebrequin Launch Bape Black Collaboration

What happens when apes encounter sea turtles? French swimwear brand Vilebrequin have worked with Japanese fashion house A BATHING APE, BAPE BLACK to create a capsule focused on quality materials, detail-driven craftsmanship and bold print.

Taking a step back from their usual vivid St Tropez colours, the new collection consists of 7 pieces of swim trunks, tees and sweats for men, women and children in mostly black-and-white with a few pastel green and pink accents. Impeccably crafted oversized tees and sweats replace the usual polos or shirts, and with BAPE BLACK’s distinctive point of view, you’ll want to wear the swim trunks on land as well as water.

The collection is available in select Vilebrequin stores and online now.
