The Los Angeles-based luxury label will be opening new stores this fall in Miami and Houston, bringing the number of Simkhai stores to six. This will be followed by a minimum of three new U.S. stores in 2027, with city locations yet to be revealed.

At present, Simkhai has stores in Beverly Hills, SoHo and Southampton in New York and Dallas.

The 1,200-square-foot Miami store will open later this month at the Shops at Bal Harbour. Designed by architecture firm Stimuli, the store features a fluid, sculptural environment defined by soft curves. The material palette is restrained and tactile, with Navona travertine flooring and neutral walls complemented by metal details. The store features a sculpture and custom table by Edoardo Cozzani, an Italian multimedia artist who works across sculpture, photography and site-specific installation. The boutique will open with the fall, holiday and pre-spring collections of women’s clothing and accessories, and men’s clothing.

In addition, Jonathan Simkhai, the brand’s founder and creative director, partnered with artist Alex Kuznetsov, a London-based artist, to take his artwork, “Orange 2009” and print it onto Simkhai’s signature draped jersey Acacia Dress and a silk scarf, which will be sold exclusively at the Miami store. The original artwork and special pieces will be shown in the store window during Art Basel in early December.

The 1,700-square-foot Houston store will open in early next month at River Oaks District , a high-end shopping destination. Like the Mimai store, it features a neutral color palette with metal accents and fixtures, as well as a travertine-covered fitting room and centerpiece accessories display.
