Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Melbourne right now.
Melbourne has firmly established itself as the nation's fashion capital. Australian designer labels are available on High Street in Armadale, on Toorak Road and Chapel Street in South Yarra, and on Bridge Road in Richmond. High-quality vintage clothing abounds on Greville Street in Prahran. Discount hunters love the huge discount fashion shopping center attached to Southern Cross Station on Spencer Street, with its many stores. Most shops are open Monday–Thursday 9–5:30, Friday until 9, and Saturday until 5. Major city stores are open Sunday until 5.
Bespoke shoemaker Hassett sells handmade leather belts, satchels, and wallets, many made from kangaroo leather. Much of Theo Hassett's leather is sourced from Greenhalgh Tannery in Ballarat, which specializes in tanning with wattle tree bark. On the premises you'll also find a café and a barbershop.
