Nique: Acland Street

Nestled between old-world cake cafés and colourful hippie shops, Nique's minimalist fit-out and clean-cut jackets, shirts and skirts make for a refreshing change. Starting as a studio in Melbourne in 1998, the brand's muted, effortlessly cool designs are known for being innovative yet affordable. Men and women are equally catered for here, with patterns and graphics kept to a minimum.
