Kurt Geiger opens first store in Miami
British accessories brand Kurt Geiger London has opened its first store in Miami, Florida.
Located at Aventura Mall, the new boutique spans 2,102 square feet and embodies Kurt Geiger's signature love of colour, glamour and joyful self-expression.
The store's design follows a marquee concept first unveiled at Kurt Geiger's Oxford Street flagship in London. Created by chief creative officer Rebecca Farrar-Hockley, the vibrant space features rainbow-hued glass in diamond and lattice formations, illuminated antique brass shelving, eccentric fringe details and a quintessential English floral print that plays across the interior. Meanwhile, antiqued brass eagles, the brand's signature emblem, are scattered throughout.
The location houses a full range of women's shoes, handbags, accessories, jewellery, swimwear, and sunglasses, while Kurt Geiger's menswear collection is set to debut in-store starting this Fall/Winter.
'This store was such a joy to create – it's bright and full of personality. Miami's sunshine and spirit inspired us to lean into our vibrant and expressive spirit. We want the space to feel uplifting and transportive – a little piece of London creativity, reimagined for Miami,' said Farrar-Hockley.
With its dynamic energy, bold fashion scene and vibrant, multicultural spirit, Miami is a natural home for the Kurt Geiger brand. The opening marks the label's second location in the state and its fifth standalone across North America. It follows the success of its Orlando store, which opened in 2023 and has already surpassed the company's targets.
It also joins existing standalone boutiques in New York, Los Angeles, and San Diego. The brand equally has a strong wholesale presence, with 672 points of distribution across retailers such as Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, and Dillard's. Further US expansion is planned for 2025 and beyond.
'There's so much colour, confidence and creativity in Miami – it's a place that just feels completely aligned with the spirit of Kurt Geiger. We've seen such an incredible response in Orlando, so opening in Aventura Mall felt like the natural next step. We're excited to welcome Miami to our growing family here in North America,' added Neil Clifford, CEO of Kurt Geiger.

UK and four nations sanction two far-right Israeli ministers
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir will be banned from entering the UK and will have any assets in the country frozen, Britain's foreign ministry said in a statement. The announcement was a rare joint action alongside Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Norway and comes as the Israeli government faces growing international criticism over its conduct of the conflict with Hamas. The sanction sees the five countries break from Israel's closest ally, the United States. Ben Gvir and Smotrich "have incited extremist violence and serious abuses of Palestinian human rights", the foreign ministers of the five countries said in a joint statement. "These actions are not acceptable. This is why we have taken action now –- to hold those responsible to account," they added. Smotrich and Ben Gvir are part of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's fragile ruling coalition. Both have drawn criticism for their hard-line stance on the war in Gaza and comments about settlements in the occupied West Bank, the other Palestinian territory. Smotrich, who lives in a West Bank settlement, has supported the expansion of settlements and has increasingly called for the territory's annexation. Last month, he said Gaza would be "entirely destroyed" and that civilians would "start to leave in great numbers to third countries". Ben Gvir has also called for Gazans to be resettled from the besieged territory. UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy said the pair have used "horrendous extremist language" and that he would "encourage the Israeli government to disavow and condemn that language". Earlier, Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said Israel had been informed by Britain of its sanctions decision, describing the move as "outrageous". The UK foreign ministry said in its statement that "extremist settlers have carried out over 1,900 attacks against Palestinian civilians since January last year". 'Personal capacity' It said the five countries were "clear that the rising violence and intimidation by Israeli settlers against Palestinian communities in the West Bank must stop". "Measures today cannot be seen in isolation from events in Gaza where Israel must uphold international humanitarian law," the foreign ministry said. It added that the UK and its partners "support Israel's security and will continue to work with the Israeli government to strive to achieve an immediate ceasefire in Gaza". "Hamas must release the hostages immediately, and there must be a path to a two-state solution with Hamas having no role in future governance," it added. The action comes after the British government suspended free-trade negotiations with Israel last month and summoned its ambassador over the conduct of the war. It also announced financial restrictions and travel bans on several prominent settlers, as well as two illegal outposts and two organisations accused of backing violence against Palestinian communities.

Crew Clothing steps up in sportswear with comprehensive new line
The more relaxed capsule, in key buttery-soft fabric, is designed to offer ease of movement while remaining breathable with sweat-wicking features. The Bi-Stretch styles include ergonomic seams to follow the body's natural contours, and have UPF50+ protection. Dedicated running jackets, gilets and shorts, are produced in a lightweight woven fabric and come with reflective detailing. Finally, the Technical capsule has breathable, sweat-wicking fabric with four-way stretch for performance and recovery. Prices range from £25 to £65 with the Crew Sport collection available through any of its 41 stores and online from 17 June. Head of Marketing Naomi Parry said: 'Entering the sportswear space feels like a natural progression for Crew. Born out of a Salcombe windsurfing shop, we launched our very first collection with rugby shirts designed by a GB skier [so] sport is in our DNA.' Calling the line 'a natural progression', she highlighted the brand's close sporting legacy which, in the last decade has been built through sponsorship partnerships with Henley Royal Regatta, the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) and the England Red Roses rugby team, 'and Crew Sport is the next step in our journey'. She added: 'We know our customers live active, varied lifestyles, and we think this new collection will be the ideal addition to their wardrobe.' Head of Design Jo Miller also said: 'Designed to transcend age, gender and fitness level, our new athleticwear collection blends our timeless heritage with cutting-edge details. 'We've become known for our signature touches over the years, and you'll find that here too. Whether it's the unrestrictive storm flap on our running gilet or the thumb holes on our track top, we've thought through all the little details.' The launch also comes with a marketing campaign that reflects not only the brand's British legacy but injects some humour too. 'We don't take ourselves too seriously and hope that will come through in some of the copy we are launching with,' noted Parry. Taglines include 'Your park-run-and-a-pint Crew' and 'Barbells-and-a-brunch Crew'… 'it's mixing that sport and team spirit [and] bringing it all together in that British tongue-in-cheek humour'. She added: 'In essence, Crew Sport's sporty but doesn't take itself too seriously, is stylish but not too showy, made to make you feel good and fit into your lifestyle… and the added mix of heritage and humour is what will carry it through'.
