SKIF International announces their new headquarters in University City’s International District combining the boutique and production center formerly located on The Hill. SKIF’s impact on the St. Louis community and the fashion world has been felt for over 20 years, beginning with the Matrix movie. These signature threads are a statement for the individuals who wear them each in their own style. Everybody can find something that speaks to them and for every body. Loyal customers—from almost 200 boutiques who sell SKIF to the hometown fans—gravitate to the distinct, fun, and immediately recognizable details of the garments. In addition to the signature knitwear items are a wide selection of ready-to-wear pants, shirts, and jackets, as well as scarves, hats and seasonal arm/legwarmers.
‘I wear SKIF every day for style and comfort. It allows my personality to shine through because no two people look the same in SKIF,’ says Susan, an artist.
Karen, who has worn the brand for over a decade, notes that she gets compliments constantly including being stopped by complete strangers, ‘It’s the fresh, distinctive designs that keep me coming back and adding to my collection.’
‘SKIF keeps evolving from the yarns we use to the painted embellishments so popular now. And we are committed to it,’ says owner Nina Ganci revealing that they are using fine French Jacquard woven fabrics for a new jacket design.
Another long-time devotee, Paulette, notes, ‘It’s personal. SKIF is my uniform—from casual to dressy. Every SKIF piece I wear is unique and uniquely mine.’
The new location continues to be a place that welcomes the community at 8100 Olive Blvd Mon. - Sat. from 11 to 6.
