No ano de 1972, o surf despontava como um novo esporte, importado do Hawaii, sendo uma novidade para os cariocas que neste mesmo ano estava em construção o emissário submarino de Ipanema, que para assentar os túbulos imensos, construiu um píer mar adentro entre as Ruas Farme de Amoedo e Vinicius de Moraes, na época a famosa Rua Montenegro.
Este píer virou point dos surfistas da época uma tribo de não mais 30 nomes entre eles Ricardo Kadinho, Otávio Pacheco, Ricardo Bocão, Maraca, Mudinho e Jean Noel entre outros. O píer serviu também de inspiração para criação da segunda surf shopp do Brasil já que a primeira foi a Magno Surf na Rua Gomes Carneiro também em Ipanema.

Primeiro vieram as malhas de algodão e os moletons, comercializados em diversas lojas cariocas. Depois de nove anos e muita pesquisa, foi lançado o primeiro jeans, ainda hoje um dos fortes da marca. O ano era 1992. A Equatore começava a se firmar com uma moda alegre e colorida, com um toque de sensualidade. De lá para cá, a etiqueta se destacou como uma das mais criativas entre os lançadores de moda cariocas. Lojas: Ipanema, Norte Shopping e BarraShopping.

Giulia Taffner, marca muito conhecida no cenário da moda no Espírito Santo já há 15 anos, detentora de quatro prêmios Agulha de Ouro e o IV Prêmio Vitória Fashion de Moda Íntima. Este nome surgiu como uma homenagem das netas Orlinda Covre Prezentino e Maria Auxiliadora Covre a avó, devido à garra e caráter desta mulher que acabou por lhes trazer muita sorte neste empreendimento, “ela foi nossa musa inspiradora”, conta ela. Da união da criatividade com a experiência na costura surgiu uma pequena fábrica de roupas íntimas, com produção de 18 peças/dia revendidas de porta em porta. Fazíamos poucas peças porque pretendíamos o máximo de qualidade. “Foi assim que fizemos clientela”, lembra Dora e Orlinda.

A costura bem feita, o conforto das peças e as modelagens, tinham caído no gosto das capixabas – a marca Giulia Taffner se fortaleceu havendo a necessidade de expandir e procurar novos mercados.
