foccussing on the boutique fashion market, qsw marks a logical step for the famed boardwear/apparel giant. for over thirty years quiksilver has maintained their crown as a boardwear company for young men and women surfing around the world - but their consumer has grown up over those same 30 years and now, so has quiksilver. qsw is not as widely available as their sister companies, and its inclusion on our sales floor is no accident. clean and femenine, with an eye for beautiful imperfections, qsw is now available for autumn/winter 2010 at still life boutique.

a second batch of quiksilver womens has arrived as we move forward into spring 2010 at still life. we're getting a terrific response to the line, using super soft silks, feminine cuts, beautiful construction and almost zero branding. it's always fun when a new brand can arrive at the shop and perform well right off the bat, and this spring collection from quiksilver womens is doing just that.
