KOOKAÏ is an Australian owned women’s fashion label, defined by an essence of femininity, confidence, allure and independent style. The KOOKAÏ collection is designed exclusively out of our Melbourne and Paris studios through a creative, symbiotic process – whereby we are forever inspired by the KOOKAÏ woman and, in turn, create pieces through which to continually inspire her.
KOOKAÏ was originally founded in Paris in 1983 with a simple vision to offer fashionable, high quality pieces at accessible prices. In 1992, the founders of KOOKAÏ Australia, Robert Cromb (CGS 1976-82) and Danielle Vagner, introduced the Parisian label into the lives and wardrobes of the Australian woman, with the opening of their first boutique on Melbourne’s Chapel Street.
Today, despite over three decades of evolution, KOOKAÏ remains true to its origins in providing a collection infused with Parisian chic, and continuing to provide an opportunity for women to embrace their individuality and the power of expression through their wardrobe.
The majority of the KOOKAÏ collection is produced out of our own manufacturing facilities in Fiji and Sri Lanka, as part of KOOKAÏ’s overall pursuit of an ethical and meaningful existence.
Throughout our boutiques across Australia, New Zealand and Europe, KOOKAÏ offers a unique shopping experience through which the KOOKAÏ woman can transcend fashion’s boundaries – defying the trends and creating her own.
