RESORT WEAR & MATCHING SETS

An essential part of any summer wardrobe, resort wear and matching sets make holiday dressing easy. Look out for our robes and cover ups with feminine embroidered detailing. These summer staples are your perfect beachside companion. Simply slip on over your swimsuit and pair with shorts or a denim mini skirt and you're ready for lunch. Matching resort sets arrive in bold prints and lightweight fabrics. Effortless and comfortable, they are a great solution for travelling. Wear together or style with fresh white separates for a chic look.

LINEN DRESSES

As soon as the temperature starts to rise, we reach for our favourite linen dresses. We love this natural material; it not only looks luxe but it is easy to care for and takes less energy and water to process, compared to other fabric types.

Whether you're after a casual linen shift dress or something more elevated like our ruffle linen minis, we have plenty of choice. This season, you'll find lots of ramie in the range. This plant-derived fibre is very similar to linen and has all the great benefits but with a softer, sateen-like feel.

CLASSIC STRIPES

Classic stripes in shades of navy, black, and white are key this summer. Instantly elevating a simple tank or maxi dress, these stripes offer a 'French chic' edge to your casual outfitting. Pair timeless stripes with denim skirts, black pants, and fresh, white, tailored shorts for an elegant yet relaxed look.

Our range of camis and tanks are essential to your summer look and can be worn alone or layered with linen blazers for a workwear look that will keep you cool.

SUMMER PARTY DRESSES

The end of the year is a special time we all look forward to with anticipation; full of celebration and festive parties, the summer event season calls for a joyful take on occasion wear. This year opt for summer party dresses in bold colours and prints.

Orange dresses are a fantastic option for end of year work celebrations or new year's eve parties. For Christmas lunch and family events, we suggest tropical floral dresses that take you from day to night. Look out for feminine details like ruffles, ruching, and sculptural rosettes for a dreamy, feminine appeal.

Complete your look with our wide selection of heels and evening bags, and don't forget to add a pair of statement earrings.

What to wear to Oaks Day, Flemington VIC

Traditionally known as Ladies Day, Oaks Day is your chance to celebrate all things feminine and romantic. Opt for floral dresses in soft shades of coral, pink, or yellow. Our new season ombré florals are an elegant alternative to traditional painterly roses and delicate ditsy prints if you want to experiment with something new. Find them adorning lightweight midi dresses with belted waists. Complete the look with cream coloured accessories and don't forget a whimsical headband.

What to wear to Stakes Day, Flemington VIC

Colloquially referred to as 'family day', Stakes Day is a more casual affair and this laidback take on the races is seen in the relaxed attire most punters favour. We suggest keeping it elevated with a daytime event dress but choosing a relaxed silhouette and lightweight fabrics like linen or ramie. Keep it simple with block colours or an understated print, like our chocolate and white polka dot. For those who still wish to don headwear, we suggest a straw hat or a subtle headband.
