ZOOLOGIE









ZOOLOGIE was formed in Melbourne in 2008 by husband and wife team George Haughton and Bonita Francis, with backgrounds in fashion & graphic design.  The Influences for their designs often come from a very similar place each season, with the design concepts usually deriving from a journey to a distant land or of viewing a new world for the first time. The results are collections that aren't trend led, but rather, go against the grain, with clothes that are defined by an attention to detail.
