Let’s have a kiki…in Kikirki, mais oui! For over two decades, the brand has had fun at the center of its ethos, making trend-driven, dance floor-ready pieces a non negotiable. Just ask one of its notable fans: none other than Britney Spears. Alas, while Kikiriki also offers everything from swimwear and basics to swimwear, right now social media-savvy shoppers are falling hard and fast for its array of candy-hued tulle and mesh dresses. Present company included! Here’s what to know about the unstoppable brand, which releases over 40 new designs each week in almost 30 countries. What time’s the kiki?

It is an affordable and trendy brand that is fashion-conscious. Women (and men!) love our brand.
What trends have been selling particularly well recently?
All of our mesh dresses sold very well in 2021, because people wanted to look spectacular, especially on social media, after the pandemic. We noticed that our clients liked to show themselves more than usual, probably because they spent a year in sweats!
