Australian fashion label Kivari has expanded its retail presence with the opening of two new stores in Bondi Junction and Burleigh Heads, respectively.

Established in 2014, Kivari is known for its coastal-inspired designs that seamlessly blend feminine, elevated styles with a commitment to conscious craftsmanship. The brand offers a diverse range of product categories, including swimwear, jewelry, and knitwear, all underpinned by a dedication to ethical manufacturing and the use of natural or sustainable fibers.

The new Kivari boutique in Burleigh Heads, situated at 25 James Street, pays tribute to the brand's coastal heritage through its modern architectural finishes, flowing curves, and thoughtfully crafted natural furnishings. Founder and creative director Kirstin-Lee Keysers expressed her excitement about returning to the place where it all began for Kivari.

Keysers, said, “I’m excited to have opened a store where it all began for Kivari nine years ago, where I was selling handmade leather goods at the Burleigh Heads TVM market.”

Similarly, the Bondi boutique, located on Level 3 of Westfield Bondi Junction, is designed in line with Kivari's signature aesthetic. The store features neutral tones, organic textures, and natural materials, creating a contemporary and inviting atmosphere.

The move brings the brand’s store count to six boutiques in key locations, as the company continues to further eye expansion plans. Its existing stores are also located in Byron Bay, Noosa, Freshwater and Miranda.
