for Katie Hosking, fashion is not about following fad trends, but creating her own unique and timeless style. growing up on philip island in victoria, she moved to melbourne to study fashion design.

after having successfully completed her studies, she began work in the fashion industry. she spent the next ten years working as a head designer for three leading melbourne based companies, spending all her birthdays on an aeroplane whilst travelling the global fashion circuit. her experience in women's apparel, youth apparel and accessories formed the stepping stones to the beginning of the KATIE HOSKING label.

in 2007 she took the leap of faith to pursue her lifelong dream of her own label. using her passion for prints and gift for design, katie developed a collection of unique print designs applied to a range of high quality australian and new zealand sourced fabrics - including wool, silk and cotton using current and reliable printing and dyeing techniques. the range is wholly australian made and owned alowing katie to ensure the highest quality in every process of making each item.
