The Design Studio

Intelligence and integrity are at the forefront of the Scanlan Theodore design philosophy, with each collection carefully created and developed in-house at their Melbourne-based Design Studio. Concepts of form, sculpture, proportion, and archival vintage are intricately sketched, then hand-crafted by a network of artisan partners.

Embodying traditional skillsets from European dressmakers, the Design Studio is underpinned by a classic, minimalist aesthetic paired with a modern view of femininity. Each Scanlan Theodore piece is crafted with a sophisticated design sensibility - evocative of timeless wearability and refined elegance. 

The ready-to-wear collection embraces a contemporary approach to couture fabrications sourced from speciality mills across the world. Summer and winter collections comprise of signature styles from tailoring to crepe knit, pleated rib, brushed mohair, silk, cashmere and leather.

Boutiques

Scanlan Theodore has twenty-three boutiques globally, along with five concession spaces in Australian department store, David Jones.

The relationship is one of creative respect and mutual aestheticism, emerging in 1987 when Scanlan Theodore opened their first boutique in South Yarra.
