After 13 years in business, Los Angeles-based Xirena finally has its first retail store. It’s come a long way since launching as a lingerie line: Today, Xirena is a full-fledged ready-to-wear and lifestyle brand. Founder Dierdre Roffoni, who also founded the fashion showroom/agency Findings, launched it after being inspired by the colorful, easy-breezy style of women in Formentera, Spain. The name comes from “sirena,” the Spanish word for “mermaid.” Xirena’s first store, in the reopened Palisades Village in Los Angeles’ Pacific Palisades neighborhood, was also inspired by Spain, Roffoni tells Fashionista. “Europe in the summer and the Mediterranean,” she says. “The sculpted curved walls, the imaginary skylight, the organic feel of the floors, and then all of the wood is carved by hand.” The space was designed in collaboration with architect David Montalba, founding principal of Los Angeles-based Montalba ...

That special little piece of intricately woven materials turned out to be part of the blueprint for her vibrant, Y2K-infused “Midnight Sun” fashion aesthetic. Of course, neither Larsson nor the emerging designer behind it knew that at the time. “That piece kicked off a whole new era for her,” Cheshire, England-based knitwear designer Paul Aaron recalls over email. “I was the first person to make the hibiscus flowers that became part of her looks, and it turned instantly recognizable…After that, her stylist had many designers making hibiscus pieces for her.” Zara Larsson in a Paul Aaron mini skirt.
