Stockroom Sale
By popular demand, our stockroom is open again, and full of gorgeous and warm and clever things. Let's talk median prices - $110 for skirts and trousers, $150 or so for tops and dresses, and $250 for coats and jackets - with lots of pieces for under $100.
We rearranged, and rediscovered this S!x dress coat - a semi-sheer silk dress sewn into a wool overcoat. Worn forward the dress is a delicate foil to the rather (excellent) mannish style of the coat; pushed back into the coat, it becomes simply a luxurious lining.

NEW! Mini shop #4 online
Nine styles comprise a new mini-shop at our neat, little online store.
It's a grey area - are you looking forward to Winter, or clinging on to Summer? Or trying to address the in-between?
We've put the mini-shop together to coincide with the reopening of our stockroom, and our sale on garments from seasons past. The exception is the Strange & Strange shortline knit, which is a new arrival but a remake of a popular style. The point is, there's just nothing wrong with the old stuff.
Remember ... when browsing at our e-shop, just keep clicking. Click on each item to see it in more detail; click on the individual thumbnails to vary the main image, and click on the main image to see an enlarged version.
Sizing does vary somewhat from label to label, garment to garment, so a guide can be found within each item description. Our accommodating mannequin is small all over but she is tall - and because she is standing like a star, she can wear most sizes. In many cases, there is some flexibility in the size of the garments chosen, particularly if you are small, too, and willing to go up a size (or willing to spend your days standing like a star). When selecting garments for the online store, we do try to choose and photograph the pieces carefully, such that what you see is what you get. Any queries you may have are truly terribly interesting to us - please email mail@millysleeping.com or call +61 3 9347 1333.
