Girlié

Girlié is a women's fashion boutique based at 59A Triq De Vilhena in Gżira, the harbour-side town between Sliema and Valletta. It trades through its own online store, aimed at shoppers who want trendy, affordable styles, and the site is built for both people in Malta and customers shipping from abroad. The focus is on swimwear, party dresses and holiday outfits, with a casual range and men's sets as well.

For visitors, this is a useful stop before a beach or boat day, and a good example of Malta's smaller independent fashion sellers. On VisitMalta.co.uk the boutique is listed with other clothing shops in Malta, and Gżira falls within the area covered by our guide to hotels in Sliema.

The collections

The online store is organised into Party Dresses, Pool Party Outfits, Long Fashionable Dresses, a Sets Collection, Jumpsuits and Rompers, Men's Fashion Sets, Casual wear and Swimwear. Further collections cover beach party outfits, denim, maxi dresses in elegant velvet and silky fabrics, and a men's wear section. Dresses, swimwear and lingerie are its three main product lines, offered at affordable prices.

Swimwear is the clear strength. Named pieces include the Montego Bay Bikini Set, the Sahara Muse Bikini Set, the Azure Bloom Crochet Maxi Dress, the Santorini Breeze Maxi Cover-Up and the St. Tropez Sequin Set, a two-piece beach outfit. There are also one-piece swimsuits, halter and lace-up styles, a leopard bikini and a butterfly-print two-piece, so there is something for a pool day, a beach club or an evening on the water. Many listings come in several colours, such as gold and rose gold for the shiny lace-up swimsuit, and variants appear as options on each product page.

Prices and sizing

Printed prices are shown in euros with tax included. Examples include the Montego Bay Bikini Set at €29.99, the St. Tropez Sequin Set at €39.99, the Azure Bloom Crochet Maxi Dress at €44.99 and the Three-Piece Shiny Lace-Up Swimsuit at €38.96. Several swimsuits are on sale, such as a leopard bikini reduced from €25.99 to €15.99 and a butterfly-print two-piece reduced from €26.99 to €16.99.

Product pages carry a size guide. In one example, size S suits a bust of 80 to 85cm, M suits 86 to 90cm and L suits 91 to 95cm, and the model is 165cm tall and wears a size S. Sizing differs between items, so check the guide on each page, and note that some listings are marked as limited stock.

Delivery in Malta and abroad

Delivery is a real selling point. Orders in Malta can be delivered the same day through Bolt and Wolt, with some items arriving within hours, which suits a last-minute holiday outfit. Free shipping applies on qualifying orders worldwide, and a message on the product pages states free shipping over €80. Checkout is secure and shipping is calculated at the checkout stage.

If you are planning a trip, our Malta weather guide shows how warm each month is, the best beaches in Malta guide helps you choose where to wear your new swimwear, and the Blue Lagoon guide covers one of the most popular boat-trip stops.

Visiting Gżira and getting in touch

The boutique's address is on Triq De Vilhena in Gżira, close to the seafront. Nearby listings include AM Language, a language school, and Adventure Cruises Malta, a boat charter listing. For the wider trip, see things to do in Malta and the Valletta guide, and use the where to stay in Malta guide to choose a base.

Because stock is limited on some styles and the listings mark which are selling fast, it pays to ask early. Questions about an item, a size or delivery? Use the VisitMalta.co.uk enquiry form on this page and we will pass your message to the boutique.
