If you’re in search of truly trippy talons, look no further than mani-master John Avery, whose client list includes Winnie Harlow, Ivanka Trump, and Camila Cabello.

Bites Between Beats

ViceVersa Miami

When you need gourmet comfort food—specifically pizza—ViceVersa is the move. Think perfectly blistered pies topped with maitake mushrooms or spicy pepperoni, served in a well-dimmed, chic setting. This hidden Downtown gem sits within walking distance of Bayfront Park and stays open until midnight, making it an ideal escape when the BPM gets relentless. Expect a curated menu from the Jaguar Sun team, paired with cocktails by mixology legend Valentino Longo—exactly what hangry EDM lovers need between sets.

Festival Frocks

Dolls Kill

Wynwood’s Dolls Kill feels like a portal to peak festival style. Step inside and you’ll find platform heels, moto vests, halter tops, chain mail skirts, faux fur hats, and dramatic hooded capes—all designed for maximum impact from day sets to after-dark dancing. The assortment blends goth, rave, boho, and glam with just enough attitude to stand out in a sea of looks. This is where festival fantasies get outfitted, styled for the flirty, fearless, and fashion-forward. Consider it your Ultra uniform—no guesswork required.

It’s all designed to bring you back to baseline—fast.
