PRÊT‑À‑PORTER is an elegant and strategically demanding economic board game that places players in the roles of fashion company executives. Their goal is to become the most prestigious fashion house by designing clothing, participating in fashion shows, and managing resources wisely.

In the game, you run a fashion company where you:

• hire employees (e.g., designers, models, accountants),
• purchase materials of various qualities,
• construct business facilities,
• sign contracts for bonuses,
• and prepare collections for seasonal fashion shows.

Each show evaluates different aspects: quality, trendiness, PR, and the diversity of your collection. Players compete for awards that convert into points and money.

Players choose actions across six main areas (bank, contracts, locations, employees, designs, materials). The game lasts 12 rounds, divided into working (preparation) rounds and show (fashion week) rounds.

Players manage their companies by:

• paying salaries and maintaining buildings,
• generating income from previous collections,
• tracking expenses and profits.

They collect design and material cards to present the most optimal collection at the show. Every game features different judge requirements, enhancing replayability.

If you’re drawn to games with a strong economic core, a unique theme, and deep strategic gameplay, Prêt‑à‑Porter is the perfect addition to your collection. 💼👠🧵
