The Thousands

Brisbane, meet your new favourite fabric store, Fabric Store. This hot spot is a killer destination for anyone looking for quality upper-crust designer dress fabrics. With staff who’ll make you feel welcome whether buying or dreaming, this NZ-bred business boasts a diverse fabric range with a strong focus on natural fibres.

What sets The Fabric Store apart is their specialty pieces such as New Zealand merino knits and leather hides. You’ll also find the number one eco staple bamboo, silk chiffons and georgettes, woollens, linens and satins and so on, and so on, yadda yadda!

The Fabric Store is a great new excuse to support antipodean industry whenever and where you can. They source their fabrics from both local and international designers as well as sampling lengths from manufacturing runs, meaning that the stock is continually changing and peppered with treasures that have short and sweet shelf lives. I was easily seduced by the thrown together assortment of fabric faves and with each customer entitled to a 30% discount on their first purchase, you’ll be seeing all of your friends in bamboo this summer.
