Meet Giada and Her Brand New Collection

Sun, sand, and the endless thrill of catching a wave – that's the life Giada knows and loves.

Growing up in the vibrant island paradise of Bali (with Argentinian and Italian heritage), Giada's connection to the ocean began at a young age. Her best friend's dad would take them to the shores of Legian and Kuta, sparking a lifelong passion for surfing that started at the age of eight.

Surfing isn't just a sport for Giada, it's a way of life. From playing in the rice fields to conquering waves with the same crew she started with, nature has always been her playground. Now a professional surfer and commentator, Giada travels the world for 8-10 months a year, chasing waves and exploring new coastlines. Europe, Central America – wherever there's a break, Giada's there, living the dream.

But it's not just about competition. Giada thrives on the camaraderie of the surfing community, empowered by the strength and talent of the girls around her.

Giada says "I’ve been competing for most of my life, but my favourite events by far are the Krui Pro in South Sumatra and Nias Pro on Nias Island (also in Sumatra). I get to commentate and compete in these events making it extra special as these are two of my passions! Krui was my best result in competition, so it makes it even more unique to me. Representing Italy has allowed me to visit places I’ve never thought I would visit as a surfer, one example being Norway! I can safely say ive been to some of the most remote places in the world, with no connection, signal or easy access to food and water and all of that was just to surf incredible waves.

I consider myself to be extremely social and open to anything new or different, growing up in Bali I’ve been exposed to the most international community that has allowed me to mix different cultures into my own. When I'm traveling I'm always the first to want to try new and different foods. Traveling has helped me in that sense too, so I'm a big promoter of accepting new adventures and trying new experiences. Which is what this collection also represents!"

That's why her collaboration with Pineapple Island is so special. This collection reflects Giada's love for the ocean and her desire to feel beautiful and feminine, both in and out of the water.

Shimmering gold accents that capture the warmth of the sand, and colours that evoke the endless blue of the sea. Each piece – bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and anklets – is designed to mix and match or create stunning coordinated sets. Some pieces are even waterproof, allowing you to seamlessly transition from catching waves to catching compliments.
