shirts will feature, with a range of vintage authentic Western shirts in a variety of colours.

excellent opportunity to showcase our contemporary vintage to a city-based market.”

Our collection will hopefully inspire and delight our new city audience, offering something fresh and
unique that’s not been seen at 140 before.”

The inspiration of the Miss Brown Vintage creation is cultivated by Madeleine Thomson who is extremely passionate about bringing vintage fashions back to life in a contemporary style. Madeleine’s creativity, dedication and artful eye on how to capture great vintage pieces allowed her to quickly evolve and she opened her first shop in Bondi Beach in 1994. The success of the first
store sparked a further two stores in Sydney’s Surry Hills where her own designs of clothing made from vintage remnant fabrics gained a large following.
