Occasionwear

Made-to-Measure

Our Garments

Made for you.

Australians have never been big on formality for formalities sake. We're about craftsmanship and a more relaxed sense of style. Contact us for a personal styling appointment or for more information.

Our occasionwear encapsulates our devotion to quality craftsmanship and meticulous detail. We work with the finest artisans in Italy to create shirting, tailoring and overcoats that are made to measure. We offer a selection of the finest Italian fabrics including linen, cotton, cashmere and wool to suit your style and specifications - be it for work, a wedding, or if you’re simply after the perfect shirt.


Smart Casual

Not all occasions require rigid dress codes. If you’d like to look your best without compromising comfort, we offer relaxed tailoring that is versatile and suits a variety of occasions. A more laid-back sense of style is welcome here, and we love incorporating textural and tonal elements into our work to give you a renewed idea of what smart casual can look like.


Cocktail

When the occasion calls for something that is a step up from the everyday, we offer tailoring that brings elegance to your existing style. Cocktail attire calls for formal tailoring that exudes character - an opportunity to explore colour, pattern and texture in your choices.


Formal

We take the time to work with our clients to develop made-to-measure tailoring that incorporates the wearer’s lifestyle and needs as well as their specifications regarding fit. Formal attire isn’t often considered a comfortable and relaxed opportunity to express personal style, but we think that it should be.

Our Story

Christian Kimber is devoted to the ethical and considerate production of beautiful and enduring pieces that enrich the life of the wearer - clothes that are a companion for life, not just the season.

Our Story

The Australian Aesthetic

Our appreciation for the Australian lifestyle is considered in every aspect of the design process, with practicality and comfort as core tenets of the brand.

Our clothes are lovingly crafted by artisans in small, family-run manufacturers in Italy and Portugal, where utmost care is taken to preserve the tradition of producing beautiful and durable garments of the highest quality.

In employing a more refined and measured approach to production, we can enjoy beautifully designed and crafted garments for generations to come.We encourage our customers to learn about the process behind our design, and are proud of the practices we employ to produce garments that are crafted with care, with both their owner and the environment in mind.

Christian Kimber launched his eponymous brand in Melbourne in 2014, with a small, capsule collection of footwear and accessories. Developing a cult following early on amongst the menswear crowd in Australia and abroad, by 2016, Christian was able to extend the collection to include ready-to-wear.

Since, he has grown a global wholesale network and opened two brick and mortar stores, the first in Melbourne's creative hub, Fitzroy, and now a second store in leafy Armadale.

The brand’s vision is to make fine clothing more attainable to men and to meet the needs of the Australian lifestyle. Taking a ‘slow-fashion’ approach to retail, the design process is underpinned by the core pillars of functionality and durability, with a view to redefine the concept of contemporary Australian menswear.
