If Carrie Bradshow were Italian, this would be her closet. Situated within an escapist’s royal dream at Palazzo Avino, The Pink Closet marries personal style with artistry, as a fashion haven for creativity, color, and eclectic design. In the heart of Ravello, it also infuses charm into couture and sets the standard for independent boutiques across the globe.
Born in 2019, The Pink Closet is the creative laboratory of Palazzo Avino. Mariella Avino, the boutique’s trendsetter and curator notes, “It is the space where beauty meets fun.” Every piece is uniquely suited for the space and perfectly complemented by its surroundings. It’s like an expert-curated art gallery of fun fashion. Think: striped loafers adorned with Palazzo Avino’s lion emblem, satin heeled sandals embellished with crystals in an array of rich hues, and colorful raffia handbags. Every design is eye-catching on its own but the curation as a whole seamlessly flows together.
The Pink Closet has two curated rooms–one for RTW in a standalone boutique and another for homeware located within a picture-worthy display ajar to the lobby at the Palazzo Avino hotel. The fashion room showcases an interplay of color and craftsmanship that come in the form of embellished t-shirts, sparkled handbags, mesh-adorned corsets, and unexpectedly fun fashion jewelry. The boutique also features local Independent Italian designers like Amotea, Cormio, House of Mua Mua, Raptus and Rose, Exilia, Rosantica, Piferi, and more.
Whether you’re looking for an evening gown that will turn heads, the ceramics you enjoyed amuse bouche on at sunset at the Michelin-star awarded restaurant, Rosselini’s, the night before, or a vacation-worthy pop of pink matte lipstick that you’d never find in Sephora, you must shop at The Pink Closet in Ravello.
