Growing up in Southern California has its perks; one of them being the weather!  Michelle Nguyen, who is 25-years-old, produced a line called Quail which is currently based in Long Beach. Michelle has had her line going for four seasons, and recently graduated from L.A.’s Biola University. Under the lens of dark haired, tattooed models, vintage silhouettes and earthy palettes, Quail is a California girl at heart.

“I’ve never had to pack away my summer clothes or dress for the seasons,” Nguyen says. “When i was designing I definitely thought about how fantastic the weather is, and in California, my clothes are very wearable all year ’round! The colors transcend seasons.”
It’s true!  Quail shows a lot of leg, with pouffed mini skirts, high waisted bow shorts, and loose fitting, artist inspired dresses. She wanted the line to be masculine and feminine with oversized shirts and sweaters. A very balanced look- not frail and lace. Quail is definitely a brand you’ll want to sport this year.
