Desigual hits stores in the United States!

La Jolla, California – May 6, 2010 – Surf Diva’s newest line of unique clothing literally means “Unequal”. Desigual, a company rooted in Barcelona, Spain- opened its doors to the public in 1984. The company has held strongly to its idea of creating clothing to inspire positive emotions for every person age 0 to 100. Over the past 26 years Desigual has expanded its brand to over 65 countries and has been carried by major department stores around the world. 

Desigual has now extended its positive philosophy in design to the San Diego fashion scene.  Coco Tihanyi, Co-Owner of Surf Diva, visited their store in Spain and fell in love with the abstract artistic vibe of the European collection. The La Jolla Boutique is now offering the line, featuring vibrant colors and bringing a trendy twist to the San Diego beach boutique.
