Over 13,548 reviews
"I'm always a bit nervous ordering from a shop I don't know, but this parcel was neat, carefully packed, and MODESSAE earned my trust straight away."
"I couldn't help smiling the moment I saw the heel in person. The colour is elegant without being too serious, and it made me want to feel feminine again."
"I recommended MODESSAE to my sister in Melbourne and she rang me straight after her first order to say thank you. When a woman with taste approves, you know it's the real thing."
"Opening the parcel at home felt like a little treat. The bag was well protected, the colour is gorgeous, and the size is practical without being bulky."
"Ordering online still makes me hesitate sometimes, but holding this parcel made me smile. Neat, carefully packed, and MODESSAE really does seem to care."
"I was after a simple black bag that still looks elegant. This one is soft, roomy, easy to carry, and makes me feel more put together without trying."
"Gorgeous dress, but heads up, it runs small, so go up a size. Once you've got the right one, the structured waist and flowing skirt are worth every cent."
"This photo sums up why I keep coming back. Everything feels considered and beautiful, from a label that understands a woman wants more than just a dress."
"I wanted to show the details because they genuinely surprised me. The heel feels stable, the strap is delicate, and the colour goes easily with everyday outfits."
Fourteen years ago I was on my own, with a nine-year-old daughter and a lease I couldn't really afford.
I opened a tiny boutique in Paddington for women who'd stopped seeing themselves in shop windows.
Today my daughter Jess works beside me. We choose every piece thinking of you: real women, not catalogue sizes.
The cost of living has caught up with us too, and we won't cut corners to stay open. So we're closing, and everything we have left is 50% off.
Pieces are limited. Once they're gone, they won't be back.
