As executive director of the Art Production Fund, Casey Fremont helps bring to life public art projects from some of today’s most interesting artists (think Elmgreen & Dragset, Ugo Rondinone and Zoe Buckman). “I’m so excited about our 2022 Art in Focus program at Rockefeller Center,” she shares. “It’s an incredible group of artists including Max Colby, Hugo McCloud, Emily Mullin, Arghavan Khosravi and Alex Prager.” A native New Yorker, Fremont and her family decamped to Los Angeles during the pandemic. “I’m excited for the adventure, and for the opportunity to expand APF’s programming on the West Coast,” she says. She’s since embraced a more laid-back, bohemian sense of style, gravitating towards brands like Etro and Dries Van Noten, in addition to classics from Chanel and Max Mara.

Go-to weekend look?
Etro shorts, Hommegirls cropped button down.

How would you describe your sense of style?
Practical. I think playing with proportions and menswear-inspired pieces can be very sexy. Most importantly, I believe in investing in long-lasting, timeless pieces and avoiding fast fashion.

Go-to look for a night out in Miami?
Rhode’s matching cotton top and skirt set—it survives the humidity perfectly!

Go-to professional look?
I always love a Max Mara camel suit for business. Otherwise, my work/after-work looks tend to blur together.

Jewelry item you can’t seem to take off?
My Tiffany T diamond and black onyx pendant. I haven’t taken it off since I first put it on years ago.

What brands are you loving for the season?
Rhode is a year-round favorite for me—whatever I wear by them gets compliments. I’m loving Dries Van Noten, all of Gucci and Etro, too.

The Rubell Museum is one of Fremont’s favorite spots to visit in Miami.

What’s your favorite thing to do when you’re in Miami?
I love the museums and private collections—the ICA, the Rubell Museum, PAMM. And when it comes to shopping, I head right to The Webster.

Must-have bag for the season?
Gucci’s Diana bag. It’s perfect all-year round.

Shoes you’ll be wearing on repeat this spring?
Silver Ferragamo Viva flats.

On Wednesdays, we play Mahjong. And this October, we’re playing for a purpose. Here’s a look at yesterday’s stylish gathering in our Pink Park, where tiles were shuffled, lessons were learned, and a little friendly competition was fueled by bites from Makoto, TYKU Sake and iichiko Shochu.

Ready to get in the game? Tickets are still available for open play and guided lessons on October 21, as well as our grand-finale tournament on October 28. Click the link below to reserve your seat and start practicing that winning hand.
Best of all, every tile played helps make a difference, with all proceeds benefiting BCRF.
Accessories from Balenciaga and treats from Slim’s are bound to put a smile on your face—we pinky promise.
Whether you send it ahead, it comes off the plane on time, or it gets delayed in transit—make sure your bags arrive in style. Rimowa’s latest colorways assure that your entire travel color story is as on point as you are.
Pause, participate—and praise every moment as Bal Harbour Shops transforms into Pink Park, a fantastical take on the classic urban park, complete with benches, cafe tables, bike racks, and planters all donning an iconic shade of pink in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Join us throughout October for “Love Notes” in the Center Courtyard, opportunities to easily give back, and, of course, store activations and events to honor BCRF.
