Overview

Known for its gelati hues and conspicuous prints, Gorman is the Aussie brand behind that seagull and chips bikini that Katy Perry wore that one time. The label was launched in Fitzroy, Melbourne by Lisa Gorman in 1999, and since then it's become an iconic presence in the Australian fashion landscape. The main Sydney store in The Galeries also stocks the Gorman Home Time range — so you can flounce around in your lobster-print dress and geometric-heeled shoes by day, and tuck yourself in between sheets covered in clouds or pastel-coloured fish by night.
