THE BRAND
Our luxe bath products are for the modern woman who knows that me-time is essential for success. All Natural, Vegan & Cruelty Free Accredited, Made in Australia.
WHAT MAKES SOAK SOCIETY STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD?
Our new BathDew is launching, it’s an organic bubble bath with a vegan collagen (Larch Tree extract) and magnesium! This will be out mid-August in stores and online. We are also about to launch into QT Sydney, bathroom amenities in every room.
What we do differently is really great customer service (I pride myself on it) and also creating the first organic bubble bath in Australia that is targeted at women instead of babies/children. That I can find anyway!
WHAT’S TRENDING IN BEAUTY?
Self-care and ‘wellness’ in general is still a trend that is gaining more traction (especially big brands catching on). Eg. #selfcaresunday and #metime as trends. I still think our Rose soak is trending too but I might be wrong?! Also our new bubble bath is shimmery, I created that way so it would look great in photos and is on trend. Ie. Frank Body shimmer scrub and the highlighter makeup trend!

THE BRAND
Casa e Cucina is proud to be the exclusive distributor for Zafferano handmade glass and dinnerware in Australia and New Zealand, bringing our love of Italy and great Italian design into your hearts and homes.
WHAT MAKES CASA E CUCINA STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD
We are making Zafferano handmade glass and tableware available in this part of the world for the very first time. The Esperienze wine glass is world famous and used by Vin Italy and other leading wine authorities for its aesthetic appeal and technical excellence. The coloured glass collections are unique in their colours and designs, reminiscent of vintage Murano styles but with a modern interpretation. We are seeking to develop the brand in hospitality.
WHAT’S TRENDING IN INTERIORS
Customers love the retro/vintage colours of the coloured glass tumblers to finish their table settings with a distinctive mise en place that allows them to express their personality and style. This trend is being led by hospitality… dining out has become much more than what we eat or drink it is about the whole experience. Zafferano has been working with hospitality for over 15 years researching and developing new products that lead the industry in Europe in style and innovation. We are starting to see interest here as they follow the lead from Europe. Great food has to be seen on beautiful dinnerware and great wine has to be enjoyed in beautiful glasses.
The other trend seen in all the magazines is handmade dinnerware – especially black. The Zafferano MAGMA range is handmade in Portugal and has a very organic matt black look and feel.

We’ve also had amazing early feedback on the upcoming release of our Spring designs particularly on our new back pack and hip bag!

THE BRAND
Beautiful scarves for every journey, every day.
WHAT MAKES DOG&BOY STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD?
dog&boy is about creating timeless elegance. When I started to design for dog&boy, I didn’t just want to ‘make scarves’. For me personally, whenever I had bought a scarf, it was because I had connected with it somehow beyond just colour or design; it made me feel good. I wanted to create this same experience, a connection, for the customer, of something simple yet beautiful to their everyday and make them feel good. Every scarf design is unique, and every design tells a story of simple moments of joy or beauty in time that we so often overlook with our busy lives.
WHAT’S TRENDING IN FASHION?
Traditionally part of the winter wardrobe, scarves are stepping out becoming more fashion accessory than practical function.
Our new kerchief size this season, is a 70cm x 70cm square in gorgeous cotton-silk is perfect this spring-summer styled ubiquitously in classic nonchalant French sophistication – around the neck with a collared shirt; wrapped around the wrist for something a little different, or on those hot summer beach days it is the perfect headband.
