OUR STORY

The French word Deshabillé (pronounced dez-ha-bee-ay) means “to be partially or casually dressed” or “to undress”.

With this perfectly fitting name found in a thesaurus, pregnant with my son & not ready to part with my fashion career....  in 2005 Deshabillé was born. A range of sexy, sophisticated and flattering sleepwear, loungewear and beachwear that can be worn at home or beyond.

Having worked in the fashion industry for more than 15 years at the time, I saw that there was a gap in the market and an opportunity for beautiful yet practical sleepwear that moved away from the traditional ‘puppydogs & polkadots’ prints and offered more sophisticated and fashion forward prints for sleepwear.

Inspired by working with some incredible artists as the womenswear designer at Mambo, I started the brand with a strong focus on beautiful, feminine, sophisticated prints on really soft luxurious fabrics with special finishes & details. 

I started the brand with sleepwear and then later added loungewear & resortwear forming a complete leisure collection, which shaped our tag line:

SLEEP . LOUNGE . LIVE 

Our loungewear is comfortable and practical but is also beautiful and flattering to wear & many of our Loungewear styles come in their own little compact travel bag so you can roll them up & have them ready to pack for your next gettaway. 

Having spent a good part of my life living on Sydney’s northern beaches, beachwear is a huge part of defining what summer means to me. You can’t beat relaxing, throwing something easy on and heading out for a coffee on a beautiful hot summers day. 

A recent move to Queensland introduced me to a divine local brand ‘Ivy & Wood’ that offers beautiful Australian blended scents in soy candles, reed diffusers & room sprays. Adorned with excuslively designed artwork from Queensland artists, these beautiful scents will make any girls sanctuary complete.

My dream was to create garments that made women look & feel special at home & confident enough to wear beyond the front door. 

Whether they are sleeping, relaxing or working remotely....
every woman deserves to feel this good every day.
