Queensland-born designer label Kivari has moved to an expanded headquarters in Sydney’s fashion hub of Rosebery.
The designer brand pointed to a record year of sales growth in FY26, alongside an expanding international footprint, for the HQ move.
The brand operates 14 stores along Australia’s eastern states and is stocked in David Jones, Mode Sportif and The Iconic. The brand also has a raft of stockists in the United States and Canada, and more across Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
Effective from August 2026, the brand’s move to Rosebery comes after holding the post at Freshwater in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Rosebery hosts a range of fashion brand HQs, including the likes of Camilla, Zimmermann, Rebecca Vallance, MJ Bale and, more recently, White Fox.
Kivari noted the expanded HQ will enable the brand to continue to scale from a larger, purpose-driven base, including an expanded showroom and creative studio.
“Freshwater will always hold a special place in our hearts,” founder Kirstin-Lee Keysers said. “It’s where Kivari truly found itself, but this move is about harnessing the growth our community has gifted us, and showing up bigger and better, for them. We are excited and so ready.”
The relocation comes off the back of a record year, with Kivari recording double-digit growth across all key metrics, including a 42 per cent increase in total sales.
Customer loyalty remains a defining strength, according to the designer label, which the team says is a testament to the appeal of its signature prints, quality fabrications and evolving product offering.
Kivari is preparing to grow its store count to 18 across Australia by the end of FY27, starting with a Miranda store opening in August 2026, followed by Fortitude Valley, Queensland in September.
“The numbers speak for themselves, but what they represent is even more exciting,” Kivari CEO Christina Hollingsworth said. “The brand is resonating deeply with women around the world. The move to Rosebery gives us the infrastructure to meet this moment and build toward the next.”
