Party Hanmer style: Fashionworks
Hanmer Springs is an idyllic honeymoon retreat for lovers who enjoy long walks, shopping, dining, and relaxing in fresh country air. It’s also a great place for your pre-wedding party-up.
A picturesque village at any time of the year, in autumn, it becomes the most romantic haven for couples wanting precious time out together or a fun place to get together for
pre-wedding festivities. Leave space in the suitcases because after a visit to clothing boutique Fashionworks, they’ll be filled with gorgeous garments, footwear, the odd bag or two, and stunning accessories.
From edgy and avant-garde labels, such as Knewe, Augustine, Molly Bracken, Amaya, and Noa Noa, through to those classic and established brands including R.M. Williams, Zafina, Seduce, and Vassalli, nobody goes home disappointed.
Owner Alice Stielow has not only curated the crème of women’s designer labels, she has also given menswear a stronger presence and increased her footwear, accessories, and jewellery collections.
A trip to Hanmer Springs is not complete without a dip or three in the hot pools, so a trip to Alice’s other store, Lifestyles, is a must. Swimwear brands such as Jantzen, Sunseeker, Sea Level and Seafolly, plus leisure labels Billabong, All About Eve, and Levi’s, look sensational poolside. A pair of ultra-cool Woden sandals adds the finishing touch.
