since our launch in 1993 with six essential handbags, we’ve always stood for optimistic femininity. today we’re a global life and style house filled with handbags, of course. also clothes, shoes, jewelry, home décor, tech accessories and so many other things that you use every day.
we value thoughtful details. we think a layer of polished ease looks (and feels) so chic. and to us, modern, sophisticated colors make a personal style statement all their own.
it’s these founding principles that define our unique style. we like that our style is synonymous with joy.

KOOKAÏ is an Australian owned women’s fashion label. The brand is defined by an essence of femininity, confidence, allure and independent style.
The KOOKAÏ Australia collection is designed exclusively out of our Melbourne Head Office through our creative, symbiotic process – whereby we are ever inspired by the KOOKAÏ woman and, in turn, create pieces through which to continually inspire her.
The KOOKAÏ Australia and New Zealand story began in 1992 when the founders, Robert Cromb and Danielle Vagner, had a vision to introduce the Parisian label into the lives, and wardrobes, of the Australian woman. The concept was simple: fashionable, high quality pieces at accessible prices.
Today, despite over two decades of evolution, KOOKAÏ Australia remains true to its origins in providing a collection infused with Parisian chic, and continuing to provide an opportunity for women to embrace their individuality and the power of expression through their wardrobe.
The KOOKAÏ collection is produced out of our own manufacturing facilities in Fiji and Sri Lanka, as part of KOOKAÏ’s overall pursuit of an ethical and meaningful existence.
Through our boutiques across Australia and New Zealand, KOOKAI offers a unique shopping experience through which the KOOKAÏ woman can transcend fashion’s boundaries – defying the trends and creating her own.
