Dkoko swimwear
is inspired by the tropical Costa Rica beach lifestyle and surfing.
Our bikini brand is created by Costa Rican surfer girls for all women that enjoy the beach, s
ports, outdoor activities and contact with nature.
For us, swimwear is the most important piece in our wardrobe. It doesn’t matter if we are going to the beach to surf, tan or have a good time with our friends we have a perfect Dkoko bikini for each occasion. It is for this reason in our collections there are swimming suits specially designed for surfing and practicing other sports, and others for girls that just want to look good and trendy.
Our mission is to offer trendy products to enjoy on the beachthat make women look good and sexy.
About the Designer:
Michelle Rodriguez grew up in a town in the mountains of Costa Rica called Zarcero. She has been in love with the ocean her whole life as her mom used to take her to spend all her vacations from school at the beach each year.
A creative person by nature, she studied Fashion Design.
When she was 21 years old Michelle moved to the beach to learn how to surf and it changed her life. She started designing bikinis for surfing as she couldn’t find a bikini that stayed on in the surf and that is how Dkoko started. She also wanted to create a brand that allows girls to mix sizes (as all girls bodies are different) and has the “Costa Rica fit” she likes (not too big and not too small).
She loves to travel to get inspired and see different cultures however she accepts “I wouldn’t change my life at the beach for any other life. I love to travel and every time I go somewhere else I realize how great it is to live in Costa Rica and how much I love my country with its perfect waves, warm water, magic places and friendly people”.
Michelle also likes gardening, cooking and reading. Her favorite waves are La Curva in Playa Hermosa and Backwash in Osa.
