The Vintage Plume was established at the beginning of 2018, after realising there were limited options available (locally) for those wanting to dress their girls in soft tones and timeless feminine styles.
Owned and operated by Candice, mother of two children, all designs, prints and colourways are customised to be 100% unique. Candice draws all the designs by hand and has the clothing ethically produced overseas by fantastic staff who are paid a fair wage with good working conditions and regular time off.

Chickpea Children’s Wear is focussed on providing quality, timeless alternatives to mass production and fast fashion. Their garments aim to be enduring and easy to wear, using quality fabrics, notions and fastenings.

Chickpea’s colour palette is inspired by nature and muted vintage tones. Many of the garment styles and colour options are unisex, in a purposeful step away from the typical ‘girls wear pink, boys wear blue’ gender norm.
This business is also conscious of the environment and is especially aware of the negative impacts made by the fashion and textile industry.
