Get lost in Queensland’s capital – where café-strewn backstreets and hidden boutiques are waiting to be discovered.
Miss Mouse
“This place gets major points for stocking delicious French lingerie from Princesse Tam.Tam. If you’d rather spend the big bucks on outerwear, you’ll find Zimmermann, Cohen et Sabine and Equipment hanging along the exposed brick walls.”
Shop 2, 28 Logan Rd, Woolloongabba, (07) 3891 1906.
Princess Polly
“They stock everything you could possibly need to put together a luxe (and affordable) Saturday-night outfit. Even better? There are six more stores in the country. And you can shop online.”
Shop 2036, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, Indooroopilly, (07) 3878 1796, princesspolly.com.au.
Violent Green
“Hands-down the coolest store in Queensland, with labels like Stolen Girlfriends Club, Romance Was Born, Opening Ceremony and Surface to Air. Be wary: ‘just looking’ is impossible.”
Shop 9, Elizabeth Arcade, 99 Elizabeth St, Brisbane, (07) 3003 0078.
Chasing Bow
“A SHOP reader’s dream store, it carries Salasai, Ruby, Nathan Smith, Zimmermann and Kj by Kirrily Johnston. There’s a mix of accessories and apparel for the one-stop shoppers, and an online store for interstate fans (like me).”
33B Latrobe Tce, Paddington,
(07) 3161 1989, chasingbow.com.
