Collection: CAMILLA

Before launching her eponymous label in 2004, Australian designer and artist Camilla Franks created costumes for theatre performances. This early experience in the creative arts designing flamboyant, one-of-a-kind costumes translated perfectly into the designer’s vision for CAMILLA. Theatrical seasonal releases burst with colour, highlight exaggerated proportions, and champion floaty fabrics. The combined effect of all these elements deliver a sense of the dramatic in all its glory.

Australian designer label CAMILLA creates women’s resort and swimwear that redefines vacation and event dressing. From brilliantly bold kaftans to effortlessly elegant silk pants and blouses, each collection is an ode to wanderlust and artistic expression.

A narrative thread is woven throughout each release of garments, inspired by one of two far-flung adventures that Franks’ takes annually. In her global wanderings, the designer soaks herself in all areas of a culture; textiles, music, architecture, art, food, and daily life. Then, on returning to Sydney, with the help of her dedicated and authentic collective of in-house artists and designers, she translates her immersive experiences in foreign lands into a fully realised collection.

Every garment from CAMILLA is a wearable work of art, cut and sewn by hand. From delicate hand-applied Swarovski crystal embellishments to hand-drawn prints and patterns that are painstakingly placed with intention on the finest silks, cottons, and linens. The brand’s exuberant aesthetic and reflection of Australia’s global, but down-to-earth, energy has garnered the brand a dedicated cult following, both at home and globally. CAMILLA is a stand out name in the world of designers, being recognised as one of the nation’s defining and leading fashion and lifestyle labels that counts Beyoncé, Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Lopez, and Miranda Kerr amongst its celebrity following. The label and Franks’ have also been seen collaborating on costumes for the Emmy winning series ‘The White Lotus.’

All CAMILLA collections are produced in limited quantities to ensure exclusivity and uniqueness of design.
