Vivienna Lorikeet Designs

Velour is so thrilled to be the only Australian stockist of some of the cutest little rompers/swimsuits you ever did see, made locally in Elwood by the gorgeous Vivienna of "Vivienna lorikeet".















Vivienna started her label just a year ago with the hope of bringing fresh prints and vintage inspired wearable designs to the market. Her pieces are beautifully made, often using vintage fabrics. They're all fully lined but not only are they fab as your new Summer swimsuit, they are the most adorable little one piece rompers, perfect for festivals and lazy Summer days.
She is a super talented self taught designer and these pieces are merely a taste of what's to come, stay tuned as Velour will be bringing you an ever expanding range by this delightful lil lady.

Love it or loathe it, fur has made a massive fashion comeback and vintage is certainly the most ethical choice. At Velour we have a fabulous selection of both genuine and faux pieces, so whether you're after a glamourous genuine ermine stole circa 1965, a cropped faux jacket for chilly days & nights, or one of those shaggy mongolian lamb or fox pieces which have been popping up all over the runways, you should most certainly stop by!

Vintage inspired swimsuits now in store - My Sister Pat + Vivienna Lorikeet

Just a quick post to let you know we have the most DIVINE vintage inspired swimsuits now in stock. I'll do big posts on each respective label soon, but here's a little sneak peek!



This one might be my favourite of the day, it's of course ever changing as each and every one is absolutely to die for.

Aren't they just the bees knees!? They're all made here in Victoria, with the majority done in original vintage fabrics and therefore only limited quanities of each print are available, making them all the more special.
The cuts are insanely flattering and they are all fully lined and a-ok for swimming.
On top of these guys we always have a gorgeous selection of vintage swimwear, from 60's bikinis and 40's maillots to psychedelic mens trunks. You know where to come for your Summer cossie!
