“We’re constantly searching for pieces that are memorable and become the go-to statement styles in your closet,” says Danielle Licata, co-founder of Curio. “We have become known as a place to find your favorite designer brands as well as discover up-and-coming talents.”
In addition to labels like Carolina K, Silvia Tcherassi, Rosetta Getty and Bondi Born, Curio has launched some great new options for women. For chic dresses to take from day to night, check out Lee Mathews and My Sleeping Gypsy, printed tropical cabana sets from Dieji Studios, and sexy silhouettes from Cult Gaia and Aya Muse.
Curio also augmented its footwear collection featuring GIA/RHW, a collaboration between the Florentine brand Gia Borghini and model/actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. There’s also a curated selection of statement sandals from René Caovilla to more masculine chunky flats by JW Anderson and high heels from Aquazura.
The gentlemen will be happy to find an expanded lifestyle offering of swimwear, sportswear, and casual sets. “We like our guy to look effortless and relaxed, but still refined and with a discerning eye to quality.” The men’s roster includes Orlebar Brown, Officine Generale, Boglioli, OAS and thesalting.
If you’re in the market for holiday gifts, Curio has one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces and a highly stylized selection of sunglasses that range from small independent sunglass brands like Jacques Marie Mage to runway-driven designer brands including Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent and Tom Ford. A new home goods installation is the perfect place to pick up a vase from Le Double J, a Cire Trudon candle or a horn picture frame.
To indulge in some holiday and Miami Art Week primping, head to the Faena Bazaar’s new blowout bar and Brow Salon located on the third floor. While you’re on property, don’t miss Curio’s Art Basel activations including customizable products, exclusive capsule collections and the chance to meet global design talent. “Fashion is one of many art forms on display during Basel” says Licata, “and the store will have a robust event calendar to match.”
