Among all objects of design, our clothes are the most universal and intimate. Like other kinds of design, fashion thrives on productive tensions between form and function, automation and craftsmanship, standardization and customization, universality and self-expression, and pragmatism and utopian vision. It exists in the service of others, and it can have profound consequences—social, political, cultural, economic, and environmental. Develop critical tools to appreciate and contextualize fashion design—from everyday clothing to couture garments—through many different perspectives. Trace the history, development, and impact of garments over time, and explore how they may be reinvented.

Content in their simplicity and fit for purpose, Howell’s practical designs are synonymous with quality and are worn by loyal customers almost as a uniform: “You do not wear them out – you wear them in,” the chef Margot Henderson has said of her designs.

An ode to the playful and uniquely feminine. Since launching at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia in 2004, Alice McCall has become a global brand, a popular feast among many international high-profile celebrities.

Whimsical, bohemian and unmistakably Alice McCall, the feminine and flirty silhouettes that give the brand its signature codes are as strong as ever.

Now a cult brand for many on home soil and in New York City where he recently opened his new flagship, Dion Lee is renowned for traditional and sharp tailoring combined with experimental and innovative construction, forming architectural silhouettes and sculptural embellishments. Technical meets sensual, club kid meets elevated tailoring. This is the Dion Lee signature aesthetic.

Artistic inspirations with a decadent approach give Ellery an undisputed edge for those looking for a point of difference. While she was studying, Pym’s great uncle, Roland, died. He was a painter who had lived with Celia in her childhood home along with her great-aunt, Elizabeth, who would become “a huge influence” on her making. When sorting through Roland’s belongings, Pym’s father found a chunky, hand-knitted sweater worn by Roland. “The clothes of people who have died are extremely compelling things,” says Pym. “They smell like the person; they’re the shape of the person and they are literally a sort of second skin that is left behind.” When your sartorial tastes point toward home, Matin should be your first port of call.

It carries an undeniable ballet-aesthetic; one that is built for performance. From arm warmers, velour leotards and asymmetrical tanks to lavender bike shorts with dangling straps made to be wrapped around the calf – these are clothes made for the dance floor and above all, fun. In the beginning, Howell’s designs looked to the past. (She cites the raincoat her father gardened in as an early source of inspiration.) Nowadays, her ideas might be informed by social documentary photography – “Images of real people wearing their clothes,” she says, simply. Other times, it might be someone she sees on the street: “A workman in his dungarees or overalls, that sort of thing.”

The British designer Margaret Howell has been making clothes for over six decades. Her appreciation and pursuit of the well-crafted is longstanding. Howell recently rediscovered a linen dress she made for herself as a teen: “Actually, when I look at it now, I can see that even that was quite well made,” she says with characteristic understatement. “I suppose my aim has always been to make functional clothes, as well as I can.”Having launched at Afterpay Australian Fashion Week in 2021, Beare Park is known for its bold, elegant silhouettes and considered approach to design.

When you unbox your Style 4 Ever Fashion Design Studio you will find everything that you need to create the perfect workplace for any budding fashion stylist to create and design the best outfit. And the thrill of transformation has always been part of the power of clothes. From Cinderella to My Fair Lady, Grease to Pretty Woman, the magic of a radical new look is ingrained in our culture. At the height of its imperial pomp, around the beginning of this century, fashion leaned hard into the lure of newness. In the 1970s and 1980s, teenagers tuned into the radio every Sunday to find out what pop song was at number one that week; in the 1990s and 2000s, they gravitated to the Topshop shop floor every weekend to find out what look was new for Saturday night. But that was a more innocent age, before we understood that we were running up a carbon tab we would never be able to pay off.Designer Camilla Franks conceptualised her namesake label 15 years ago in Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach. Forever encapsulating a vibrant and bespoke bohemian lifestyle, Camilla finds inspiration for her collections through the art of travel. Immersing herself into worlds unknown, each Camilla piece is hand-cut, with signature prints and beading, meticulous placement detail and artisan craftsmanship. Heart and soul. You'll recognise the Camilla woman a mile away in a fluid, breezy silhouette that plays with colour and patterns. I once literally wrote the word ‘outsider’ in massive letters on the wall in my studio,” Faye Toogood recalls. “Because I have felt outside the design industry, outside the art industry, outside the fashion industry. I have never felt accepted as part of any of them, but actually, I am part of them all.” If designer Lee Mathews, founder of her eponymous brand had to choose one wardrobe philosophy to stand by, she says, “it would be to design clothes that resonate deeply with people’s lives, clothes that are functional and beautiful, that are ageless and simple and that you can throw in a bag and travel the world”. Experimenting with each new collection, Mathews finds inspiration in the abstract, from painterly colours, textures and patterns, along with art and architecture, and forever driven by craftsmanship. A creative eye that feels quintessentially Australian, Matthews' feminine offering is instantly recognizable with expert pleating, feather-light fabrications, and magical prints. Designer Anna Huong has created an aesthetic that is both peaceful and calming. Refined tailoring and minimal silhouettes complete timeless and ultra-wearable pieces. Cult favourites includes classic white shirting and sleek, powerful suiting and short sets. Sophisticated yet approachable style with an unpretentious, easy-going edge, Anna Quan walks the line between playful and purposeful with her long lines and feminine details.
