Ask anyone, and they’ll tell you that one of the best things to do while traveling outside the country is shopping, especially if you love fashion. Part of the pleasure, of course, lies in discovering designers and labels with unique items, then bringing them home with you.
Qurio recreates that experience locally through the multi-brand concept space opened by co-founders Shar and Aaron Cabigas at One Rockwell. Inside, independent labels from Bali, Bangkok, Jaipur, Jakarta, Seoul, and Tokyo share space with five Philippine brands, thoughtfully brought together to speak to many dialects of personal style.
Consider this, then, a tour through its racks, organized by fashion archetype. Whether your wardrobe leans romantic or unconventional, there’s a corner that’s for you.
The Saltwater Muse
Island dressing no longer needs a tropical print. Today’s Saltwater Muse relies instead on sheer layers, openwork textures, organic details, and pieces that appear to have been (ethically) collected between shores—all of which she can now find without leaving the city.

The Fashion Esoteric

If everyone understands her outfit immediately, the Fashion Esoteric probably isn’t finished getting ready. Qurio rewards her appetite for the uncommon with unusual construction and accessories that resemble curious objects in their own right.

The Urban Professional
This Urban Professional is at her most powerful when she’s stylish. Sculptural separates, leather bags, and polished footwear from Qurio let her respect the dress code without surrendering her point of view.

The Salcedo Girl
The Salcedo Girl prefers clothes that look best in motion—something fluid and romantic enough for a Saturday spent drifting between the market and her preferred matcha place. Qurio supplies the softness, but its thoughtful details keep her wardrobe from becoming overly precious.

The Genderless Creative
Genderless Creatives wear what reflects their sense of self. Qurio’s embroidered shirts, relaxed tailoring, reconstructed denim, and colorful sneakers give them more room to express themselves on their own terms.

Whichever one sounds most like you, consider your route mapped out. And if you happen to belong to more than one? All the better.
