DISSH

DISSH is an Australian fashion brand proudly owned, run, and led by women. The brand is known for its feminine silhouettes underpinned by an effortless sense of cool. Unravelling designer luxury into refined yet easy-going pieces that reflect our roots in the sunshine state of Australia. DISSH blends the elegance and consciousness of natural fibres with bold, modern designs to dress for life’s milestones and everyday moments with ease and style. With careful thought around the detail and longevity of every piece, our collections arrive with the seasons but become seasonless in your wardrobe. Owner and director, Lucy Henry-Hicks comes from a family of fashion retailers and has been in the business since a young age. In 2020, Lucy became the Director of DISSH and led the brand through a major evolution, soaring the brand to new heights through global expansion, re-defining the design and manufacturing processes and cultivating the online presence to connect with a diverse and inclusive community. DISSH has grown rapidly and we now have a team of 150 people across Australia. Our vision is to empower women globally and this starts at DISSH HQ - our employees are mainly women, all doing amazing creative work to build exciting opportunities and help the brand thrive. We hope our customers are empowered when they wear DISSH, finding a brand that speaks to their values and helps them dress for who they are. DISSH is made for the modern woman, and our designs are conscious, diverse, strong, bold and forward-thinking, just like her.
