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.

Calling all artists: What does your Bal Harbour Shops dream look like?

The 7th annual Bal Harbour Shops Creative Challenge is officially underway. This year, we invite illustrators from around the world to explore The Art of Dreaming—reimagining Bal Harbour Shops as a place where fashion, dining, nature, art and culture collide, and the impossible feels beautifully possible.

In partnership with Fida Worldwide, one Grand Prize winner will receive $3,500, have their work published in the Winter 2026 issue of Bal Harbour Magazine, and be commissioned for an upcoming editorial illustration project. Three finalists will each receive $750 and be featured across our digital channels. 

Ready to dream? Submit your original work by October 16 [link in bio] and share it on Instagram using #BHSCreativeDream.
They may not make you early, but they will likely have you at least checking the time more often. With these diamond-encrusted watches from Chopard, you’re bound to want to get out and make a statement.
