Australian Designer Fashion Brands Worth Knowing in 2026

Australian fashion has never been more exciting. A new generation of designers is producing world-class work — from sustainable, artisan-crafted pieces to bold resort wear that has caught the attention of global buyers. At Pinkhill, we have spent years curating the best of these labels for Darwin's discerning shoppers. Here are the Australian designers we think are essential right now.

Alemais

The label that took Australian fashion by storm. Founded by Lesleigh Jermanus, Alemais produces romantic, eclectic clothing with artisanal craftsmanship and a strong ethical focus. Each piece is inspired by nature, travel, and cultural exchange. Known for their signature prints, embellishments, and use of natural fabrics. Available now at Pinkhill.

Camilla

No Australian designer is more iconic for resort wear. Camilla founder Camilla Freeman-Topper began with a beachside stall in Bondi and has built a global empire. Her hand-drawn prints, silk kaftans, and boldly embellished pieces have dressed celebrities and been sold in high-end department stores worldwide. Pinkhill has been a proud Camilla stockist for many years.

Kachel

Melbourne's best-kept secret. Kachel, founded by Jana Kachel in 2007, creates joyful, maximalist clothing characterised by painterly prints, flowing silhouettes, and a distinct bohemian energy. Their pieces are made to be noticed — billowing blouses, swishy skirts, and flared dresses that photograph beautifully.

Morrison

Born in Fremantle, Western Australia, Morrison is built around the philosophy of relaxed silhouettes in beautiful natural fabrics. Creative Director Kylie Radford became famous for the Perfect Fit pant and has since built a label beloved for its understated polish. Perfect for Darwin's smart casual lifestyle.

Leo Lin

Sydney-based Leo Lin is one of Australia's most exciting contemporary labels. With a signature aesthetic that blends strong femininity with architectural silhouettes, Leo Lin's collections are shaped by the intersection of Australian creativity and Chinese heritage. The label has gained international recognition for its refined, intricate pieces.
