From balmy beach days to sunset dinners, your summer wardrobe deserves pieces that go the distance—wearable, well-made, and beautiful in that effortless Australian way. These are the labels you’ll want packed and ready to go. Below, my guide to the Australian brands that know exactly how to do summer— some you’ll know, others you’ll be excited to discover, all approved by yours truly.


01. Oroton
The heritage label that’s undergone a seriously stylish reinvention. Think soft tailoring, preppy separates, the perfect wedding guest look, leather bags that quietly make a statement, and timeless accessories with just enough polish.
Get: The ruby shirt dress, a squid midi dress and any of their amazing leather bags. This is my first stop when I have to get wedding guest ready.

02. Spell
Forever the bohemian dreamers of Byron Bay, but lately a little more refined. Their dresses are made for barefoot beach dinners and balmy evenings.
Get: A suede jacket perfect for festival season.

03. McTavish
From the Byron surf scene—functional, casual and sun-soaked cool.
Get: A big beach t-shirt.

04. All That Remains
Next level crochet and the softest cotton pieces, perfect for a life in the sunshine.
Get: It’s ALL good, the new long sleeved crochet top.

05. The Upside
Known for their workout sets but it’s the ready-to-wear that I can’t get enough of.
Get: Track pants, leggings, light cotton jumpers, racer-back vests, sports tops.
