Shopping around the city and the suburbs

Shopping in Melbourne always comes with added extras, with laneway discoveries and cafe culture as much a part of the experience as the loot from local designers and the best of international brands.
 
Ever-evolving shopping choices make it possible to create a different shopping spree every time you venture out.
 
The city's passion for fashion is a serious matter, a fact not overlooked by international retail giants looking to establish Australian outposts, and local designers keen on getting a strong start.

 

 

Emporium Melbourne

Be assured of the best of the best at Emporium Melbourne, the city's see-it-to-believe-it, one-stop, super stylish, cutting edge shopping mecca.

 

Melbourne's GPO

Step off busy Bourke Street into a calmer space at Melbourne's GPO. Sunny steps, colonnades and cafes wrap around Australia's very first H&M store.

     
 

Men's fashion

Men in Melbourne are coiffed, coutured and well turned out thanks to a growing selection of gentlemen's outfitters and all-round sartorial saviours.

 

Brunswick

Pull up a milk crate and hop from one newly-opened café to another new bar, grabbing trendy truck tucker to sate the appetite and inspire creativity.
