ViX Paula Hermanny to debut lifestyle boutique at Fashion Island

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (May 05, 2017) — ViX Paula Hermanny, the Brazilian luxury swim and resort wear line that has become synonymous with both style icons and St. Tropez starlets, is making a grand entrance with its inaugural West Coast boutique set to open May 15.

The store will showcase the complete ViX collection, an exacting mix for the jet-set and casually elegant with ready-to-wear, shoes, bags and jewelry.

“ViX is about more than bikinis alone. The fashion elite covet Paula Hermanny’s designs for supple fabrics, incredible fit and resort essentials,” said Easther Liu, chief marketing officer of Irvine Company Retail Properties. “Fashion Island customers take beachwear quite seriously.”

This will be the second US location for the brand, which opened their flagship in Coral Gables, Florida earlier this year. In Brazil, ViX currently has 10 stores, serving as the go-to shop for beachy denizens seeking distinguished looks.  

“This opportunity provides a platform for our brand to expand beyond swimwear, while showcasing the first ViX lifestyle store on the West Coast,” said CEO and Founder Paula Hermanny. “I look forward to sharing the full collection and dressing our loyal customers from head to toe.”

ViX will be across from Juice Served Here at 1003 Newport Center Drive.
