RESORT 16
Since launching in 2009, Frescobol
Carioca has embodied the spirit and
style of Rio de Janeiro. Starting with a
simple yet beautiful set of handcrafted
beach bats, Frescobol has grown to
include not only beach wear and
accessories but also casual wear that
reflects the effortless, cool ‘Carioca’ way
of life. Resort 16 sees the launch of new
colour palettes and styles within the
Sidewalk collection, a collection
inspired by the famous tile walkways
that line the iconic beaches of Brazil.
The sidewalk patterns of some of Brazil’s
most spectacular beaches have become
Frescobol Carioca’s house trademarks.
These idyllic beaches, coves and towns
of Rio became the source of inspiration
for the collection.
