What to Wear in a Provençal Village — The Complete PP Wardrobe
For Gordes and La Bastide de Gordes. The most photographed village in Provence — the drystone houses descending the hillside, the Sénanque Abbey in lavender below. White PP linen for the hotel infinity pool; navy with linen trousers for the hotel restaurant evening.
For Les Baux-de-Provence and the Oustau de Baumanière. The ruined medieval fortress above the Les Alpilles — the Oustau de Baumanière (confirmed Michelin 2-star restaurant) is the most formally observed dining occasion in Provence. A PP linen shirt in white with linen trousers and leather shoes for the village; navy with the PP Monte Carlo Blazer for the Oustau dinner.
“Provence interior — Gordes, Les Baux-de-Provence, Roussillon, the Valensole lavender. Each village produces a specific wardrobe context that rewards natural PP linen in natural colourways.”
— Pieter Petros, founderFor the Roussillon ochre village. Built from ochre stone — 17 shades from yellow to deep red — in the Luberon. A PP linen shirt in Coral Orange connects to the ochre at its most specific; white PP linen provides the cleanest contrast against the coloured stone.
For the lavender fields of the Valensole plateau. The lavender rows in June and July — the most photographed landscape in France. White PP linen in the lavender context is the most photographically correct choice: the maximum contrast against the purple rows.
For the morning market. Aix-en-Provence on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday; L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue on Sunday. White PP linen with linen shorts and leather sandals for the market morning.
