About Us

Orientique Fashions was founded in 1976.

The founder traveled to India in the early 70's to source Product for her first Retail Store in Kings Cross. Sales flourished and before long Orientique was operating four stores - Kings Cross, Oxford Street, Castlereagh Street & Centrepoint.

With the growth of Orientique Stores came requests for the Brand in other retail outlets. Due to popular demand and the growing awareness of the Brand Orientique moved its focus from Retailing to Wholesaling and by 1976 Orientique was operating as a Wholesale business.

Growing demand saw Orientique establishing Factories and Offices in India and Indonesia. Most of today’s Orientique range comes from the same Factories established in the 70's. From these facilities Orientique imported to Australia as well as exported to South Africa, New Zealand and the South Pacific.

Whilst Orientique's design team has expanded, all Garments are designed in Australia and all production is still overseen and approved by the original team. All Orientique garments must meet the stringent sizing and quality requirements policed by the founders for the last 30 years. The Orientique teams in India, Indonesia & China ensure that these standards are maintained.

The Orientique Fashions range includes:-

Ladies Fashion - With signature label "Orientique" focusing on a stylish collection of Summer Cotton Prints and Solids supported by a unique range of Hand Made Jackets for Winter.
