The year is wrapping up.. well not really the end of the year.. but it is the time when things come to an end – the end of school, the end of our favorite TV dramas, the end of days filled with 9 to 5 in exchange for summer vacations.
These endings also bring along celebrations, and with celebration comes the need and demand for a fabulous dress. You want to be the girl that stands out and shimmies and shakes her way on to the dance floor.
A perfect remedy to your celebration dress desires? The Lake Victoria Dress.
Wear it for any occasion. For high time and fancy keep it chic with towering heels and piled on pearls. For relaxed and cool bring it down to earth with motorcycle boots and loose flowing hair.
It is the perfect twist of modern romance, and sure to wow at any and every celebration.

For our spring and summer collections we brought Quiksilver Womens to life with our “It Girls” Extravaganza! The great thing about “It Girls” is that they never cease to be fabulous. Their style takes place in everyday life – whether it be for a dinner out with friends, a day spent at the beach or trotting around the city picking up treasures.
We wanted to peek into this everday life that seems to have non-stop style and check out how these “It Girls” dress up in their own Quiksilver Women Collection.
Taghrid was spotted beachside in the whimsy of the Johannesburg Top!
Rachel and Krystal were spotted in the perfect spring and summer layer – the Que Sera Sera coat!
Karla was spotted “sass-ing up” the Valencia dress in her towering platforms and effortless scarf.
Insiders Tip: The Valenica Dress is 50% online!

Here at Quiksilver Women we are all about being YOU – making clothes about your own individual style, and if that means tearing things to shreds to give it that tough girl look – than have at it.
Since we love seeing what creative minds come up with, we invited each of our “It Girls” to take pair of Quiksilver Minnie Skinny jeans and custom tailor them to their liking. Then we took this challenge to the next level , and promised the winning pair would be reproduced and sold in our New York hub QSW Mercer. The reproductions would be exact replicas of the girls design and would include a photo and bio on the jeans!
Let’s just say the results were FABULOUS! Six very different pair of jeans each signature to the girl’s sense of style. With these results it was hard to pick only one – but we did – and the winner is Krystal Simpson!
Her Minnie Skinny’s are all about the “pretty tough” look – bleached out, torn up and shredded in all the right places. Check out her creation and if you are in the New York area, head over to QSW Mercer to get your very own Krystal Simpson Minnie Skinnies!

Along comes the month of May and summer is brewing.. which means we all get a little stir crazy. We are itching for trips across the ocean, long nights spent around tables with friends and the lazy hazy days of sunshine.
So if you have been diagnosed with a bit of “summer-itis”, I recommend going along with it. Get quirky! Dress like you just don’t care! Mix every print and color you can think of and make a fashion statement.
Quiksilver Women’s is here to help aid this chaos with tartan print dresses and tops. Don’t stick to the standards – throw it together with florals, stripes, obi belts and t-straps platforms. It will make the month fly by and before you know it – summer will be here and everyone can settle down and take it easy.

She has jaw-dropping – stop and stare style! She is the girl you can’t take your eyes off of when in a crowd, inspiration oozes everywhere she goes.
She incorporates high-end pieces with vintage and tons of DIY. She is super girly, but then you double take and realize her look is mixed with rock and roll and tough accessories.
She might just be one of the most stylish women New York has ever seen! She is Cocorosa, our QUIKSILVER WOMAN OF THE WEEK.

The heat is finally kicking in and spring is in full force with summer waiting in the wings. One fabulous part of spring and summer is the musical festivals popping up all over the world. Days spent in the heat surrounded by thousands, rockin’ out to your favorite band and partying all night.
One key factor to musical festival madness is having the perfect “festival look”. Something cool for when the heat gets tough, something light for when the music takes over and all you can do is dance, and something fabulous so the “streetstyle” photographer can’t help but take your picture!
The solution to your festival foray – the Quiksilver Cordoba Dress! With a hippie vibe, relaxed and slouchy drop-waist and cotton netting this little frock just needs to music to rock out.
Toss the Cordoba Dress over your hot new bikini, grab a straw bag, squeeze your feet into some gladiators and you are one hot hippie-chic – if only it were the woodstock days….
