Vicomte A. Spring/Summer 2013 Collection
The founder of the French menswear brand "Vicomte A." is Vicomte Arthur de Soultrait, who grew up in a family of aristocrats and horse breeders. The inspiration for the brand comes from the racetracks and polo clubs of his upbringing. This notable brand, with fans including French Prime Minister François Fillon, royal journalist Stéphane Bern, IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde, and Pippa Middleton, sister of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, has just released its latest collection.

Vicomte A. made its debut in Japan this autumn. The collection embodies founder Arthur's vision of style and elegance, a relaxed yet chic worldview, pursuing meticulous detail, exceptional craftsmanship, and the selection of high-quality materials, all expressed through bold, vibrant colors.
The collections are based on Arthur's personal inspirations, such as golf, yachting, polo, Palm Beach, and country hunting. They feature French leather, Italian silk, Thomas Mason shirt fabrics from the UK, and luxurious cashmere dyed in a rich palette of colors.
Particularly noteworthy are the polo shirts and sweatshirts made from hand-picked Supima cotton from Peru and Egypt. They are acclaimed for their bright, bold colorways and the high level of craftsmanship, featuring linings and stitching that perfectly complement the colors and patterns.
Vicomte A. began with a collection of 100% silk ties and has grown to offer a full range from casual sportswear to hunting wear, polo team lines, and collections for women and children. Arthur has become one of the most talked-about young entrepreneurs in Paris.
Internationally, the brand has 16 boutiques in locations such as Paris, Long Island, Portofino, Saint-Tropez, Deauville, Île de Ré, and Barcelona, Palm Beach. It is available in 320 retail stores across Europe and 60 in North America.
