With their voluminous silhouettes, billowing sleeves and delicate details, Van Der Kooij’s designs are not only breathtakingly beautiful but also helping to shift the fashion industry’s linear narrative. All of the label’s garments are created in small quantities; you’ll even find the garment number inscribed on your tag. The pieces are made in Australia (with the exception of knitwear) and finished by hand at Van Der Kooij’s studio. There’s a focus on the quality and impact of fabrics, so organic fibres like silk and cotton, as well as deadstock materials, are used.
