Vicomte A

What Vicomte A does

Vicomte A is a French heritage ready-to-wear fashion brand founded in 2005 and headquartered in Paris. The company designs, produces, and sells premium apparel and accessories — including polos (its signature piece), shirts, blazers, knitwear, pants, chinos, outerwear, dresses, swimwear, and accessories — for men and women, with a very limited children's line. The product portfolio emphasizes premium natural materials such as Pima cotton, cotton-cashmere blends, linen (sourced from northern France), and merino wool, presented across a signature color palette and exclusive prints tied to recurring brand universes (equestrian, Tour Auto, Le Mans Classic, AS Monaco). The catalog comprises roughly 713 SKUs spanning men's (~530), women's (~150), and unisex accessories (~31), refreshed seasonally with collections such as Spring-Summer 2026 (230 new SKUs).

The business operates a direct-to-consumer model through its own e-commerce site vicomte-a.com and company-owned physical boutiques located across France, with shipping offered within France (free over €80) and across Europe. Unit pricing spans approximately €40 (basic T-shirts, polos) to €400+ (premium blazers, suits), with checkout accepting CB, PayPal, American Express, and Alma installments. Brand-building and customer acquisition are driven through the Club Vicomte A loyalty/email program, an editorial blog (Le Blog du Vicomte), and event-based partnerships with AS Monaco, the Amateur Gold Tour FFE equestrian circuit, Tour Auto, and the Le Mans Classic Series — each generating exclusive capsule collections.

The company is privately held with a small headcount of 11–50 employees, no public funding history beyond a 2014 entry referencing Crédit Mutuel Innovation, and no disclosed revenue. Distribution is exclusively DTC (no wholesale or marketplace presence), payment stack is conventional, and there is no AI/ML capability evidenced in the source data.
