6 Australian Fashion Brands to Shop for Your Capsule Wardrobe
These are the best Australian fashion brands if you're looking to craft an elevated, timeless capsule wardrobe.
Sometimes we forget just how many incredible homegrown labels are in our own backyard. To the rest of the world, “Aussie style” isn’t just laid-back; it’s aspirational, cool, and quietly elite.
So if you’re looking to start building your new capsule wardrobe or you’re a quality fashion lover who wants to incorporate Australian-made clothing from top Aussie fashion brands into your closet, we’ve got you covered.
Below, we’ve rounded up an edit of six top Australian brands to shop for a more considered approach to style. From breezy silhouettes to exquisite tailoring and separates that can be seamlessly transported from workwear to weekend-wear, there’s a piece to invest in for every type of premium fashion lover.
St. Agni
The vibe: Effortlessly cool and basics done well.
Pretty close to cementing their identity as one of Australia’s best, elevated and cool brands, St. Agni is a Byron Bay-founded brand that “explores contemporary wardrobing through considered design and precise tailoring, that speaks to a minimalist aesthetic.”
With a “less is more “ approach, their designs feel quintessentially Australian, read: off-duty ease while still tapping into trending styles.
Our picks? Balloon jeans are the new jean style to take note of, and we love that St. Agni has designed a pair in a not-your-typical-blue denim.
Chocolate-hued anything is the new neutral, and this gathered strapless tie-back top can be worn with denim or styled under a blazer to dress up a workwear or evening drinks situation.
Venroy
The vibe: Contemporary classics with a playful twist. Venroy strikes the perfect balance of on-trend pieces you’ll actually wear and timeless classics every capsule wardrobe needs.
From their signature, patterned men’s shirts that feel just trendy enough without feeling like our dads’ crass Hawaiian shirts, to stunning separates in shades of chocolate, blue and green, the brand has masterfully tapped into fashion for young adults who are fashion-forward.
Consider both your Euro and Australian summer capsule wardrobes sorted.

Anna Quan
The vibe: Refined, considered and crafted with intention, Anna Quan is all about elevated forever pieces that stand the test of time.
Whether it’s a quality workwear piece that moves effortlessly from boardroom to bar, or a premium-designed day dress that can chameleon to fit any day occasion, an Anna Quan design is an investment piece that won’t fall apart after one wash cycle.
While it sits at the premium end of the pricing spectrum, the luxe price tag reflects the exceptional quality.
Our picks? THE dress that set off many dupes, but you know what they say? Often imitated, never duplicated. This beautiful strapless monochrome dress is made with finely woven cotton poplin and ribbed jersey materials for both ultimate comfort and sleek design.
For the professional women who want to look as chic in courtrooms, board meetings and marketing presentations as they do for after-hours drinks, we’d say the Luka Pants are the ultimate trouser.
Deiji Studios
The vibe: With comfort at its core, the brand is a self-described blurred line between pyjamas and outerwear.
If you’ve been Googling “sustainable clothing brands Australia” Deji Studios’ lightweight fabrics and silhouettes are here to serve.
Also founded in Byron Bay alongside a slew of Australia’s most talented designers, Deji studios “is built upon an unwavering social, ethical and environmental consciousness in an aim to contribute to a more positive future.” Having gained international recognition, you can even find this Aussie-made brand at premium fashion websites like Net-A-Porter.
Our picks? For an upgrade on the 90s cargo pant that will go with just about everything, these carob pants are made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton. We know we said spring capsule wardrobe, but if we were to invest in the perfect dressy knit to carry us through the next winter season, it would be this belted number.
Ena Pelly
The vibe: What you can expect from this Australian fashion brand that hails from Melbourne is a little bit of edge and a little bit of rock and roll.
Perusing through their collection, that unique, bold and adventurous Melbourne style is evident. Think bold, animal print denim, biker tees and unique crafted denim designs to make sure you’re standing out, not getting lost with the rest of the fashion crowd.
For those who love the GANNI leopard jean and want something similar for half the price point, these Ena Pelly leopard jeans are crafted from soft, draped denim and can instantly lift any drab look. We also love the cult, namesake Ena Pelly tee is perfect for our part-time rocker style girlies.
Henne
The vibe: Trend-driven pieces that don’t look or feel cheap.
Founded and owned by Australian personality Nadia Bartel, the Henne girl transcends state lines with the perfect mix of both Sydney and Melbourne style. Their iconic jeans (flattering on all) and Maiden tank loved by influencers, can be held responsible for propelling this amazing brand to new heights and popularity.
It’s impossible not to feel put together with a Henne piece, so if they’re still not on your radar, we’d add one of their on-trend pieces to cart stat.
Our top picks? The expertly flattering Maiken top, put on the map by beauty writer, podcast host and influencer Gemma Diamond, and now we DARE you to stop us from adding one of each colour to cart. Another best seller, the Valentina jeans are designed in a classic straight-leg, high-waist silhouette. The ultimate denim companion that will be sure to see you through all your seasonal fits year-round.
