The standard this store sets is one of smart coolness over bombastic label gauche.
From New York's Rachel Comey to London's You Must Create, Denmark's Henrik Vibskov to Greece's Esiot and Paris's Cuisse de Grenouille, The Standard Store is the place to find international brands in Sydney. Its carefully curated and constantly evolving selection of high-end clothes, shoes, accessories and homewares is always a pleasure to browse — if only to get a good idea of what's happening in fashion and design around the world. Run by Sydney-based Nicola and Orlando Reindorf, the store also hosts small pop-up events from time to time, so it's worth keeping an eye on its Facebook page for workshops and talks.
