Ever wonder what things are like down under? As if you didn’t already wish you were in the land of Oz, just one look at awesome Aussie designer Maurie and Eve’s collection and you’ll be ready to book your next vacation. This Australian label already has a pretty sweet history, having been inspired by the love of designer Kelly Davies’ grandparents, but it’s seen through by the camaraderie of family, (brother Scott) and like family, Maya Clemmensen (Scott’s girlfriend). The clothes are definitely a far cry from any Crocodile Dundee undertones and are the ultimate in chic fashion. Each piece calls out its own bold character, as it’s beach and bohemian-driven with a bit of an 80’s edge. Their lovely pieces exude a free-spirited confidence that will have you greeting your friends with “G’day” and insisting that they call you Sheila. So, calling all trendy US style-lovers — allow us to introduce you to a down under designer that’s most definitely blossoming.
