Known for selling mostly suits and high-end sportswear, it's not uncommon to see British royals like the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Kent rocking Kent & Curwen. Luckily, the David Beckham-backed menswear brand has plans to open in Miami in the near future, GQ reports.
Originally established in 1926, Kent & Curwen began as a company that designed military, club and college rep ties. It was one of the pioneers of the classic British menswear style that is still making girls everywhere swoon.
Today, the company designs high-end sporting apparel for delightfully European activities like cricket and racquetball and has moved into making casual wear. No word yet on when or where the store will be opening but we'll keep our ears open.
