TL Wood
Teresa Liano has styled Melbourne’s best dressed behind the scenes for years. Her luscious label gives women what they really want: the loveliest silks and wools, and cuts that both flatter the female form and subtly demand attention. One of her soft knit scarves will keep you warm for years.The shop, which feels more like a very stylish front room, also has a wonderful range of jewellery by local artisans.

Husk
Long-time love of the local bobo (bourgeois bohemian) tribe. The clothes on the hangers here are as eclectic and earthy as the surrounds and take in the best Australian and New Zealand designers. There’s a selection of own-brand teas and homewares, as well as a peaceful café serving healthy dishes and morish, slightly Moorish cakes.

Scanlan & Theodore
S&T helped define the Melbourne look back in the 1980s and are still going strong with superfeminine, beautifully tailored everyday and special-occasion wear. Although now considered a mature, mainstream label, its clothes always manage to make a statement. Cleverly sourced accessories and luxurious knits are very hard to pass up.

Zomp
At sale time or on a Saturday afternoon there’s a thinly veiled air of hysteria in here; shoes can do it to the best of us. The range is the main draw: you can get anything from a pair of superb Italian boots that will cost most of a week’s wage to a pair of knock-off ballet flats or flip-flops for well under $100.

Shag
This shop is jam-packed with super stylist-ordained vintage pieces, including shoes, furs and bags (and often jam-packed with the girls that love them). Those in the know also snap up the well-priced collection of frighteningly fashion-forward new dresses, jackets and tops shipped from Hong Kong.

The best of the west; Sydney's dreadlocked, shoeless, inner-city contingent beats an aimless course to this crowded hippy-ish market.
