As you know, people across the globe are donning masks to help reduce the spread of Covid-19. Since we are based in Melbourne, Australia, our face-mask wear is actually mandated by the State Government.
We’re all about supporting local and finding a sustainable, signature style. So instead of sporting disposable masks, we’ve been on the hunt for some glam reusable cloth versions that add a slap of style, sparkle and sass to our lower faces.
These are all made to the specs the DHHS have recommended. We are keenly aware masks aren’t a surefire barrier against the virus and will continue to wash our hands, maintain social distance and #stayathome. But at least we can look a bit fancy doing it.
Everything Brisbane based designer Gail Sorronda offers is divine. Their sumptuous lace masks are no exception. Crafted in various sizes and to exceptional quality, they are luxury in lace for your face. Purchase online here.
Melbourne based artist Sai Wai Foo, aka Pleaty Bunny, has turned her years of working in the fashion industry and fathoms of fabric scraps into some of the most GLORIOUS face-masks. She’s only selling via Facebook and $5 from every mask sold goes to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre. Check out her designs here.
Sydney-based Milliner Chantelle Ford and Ford Millinery has added some delightfully colourful and stylish cloth-masks to their range. The “Masks 4 Mates” COVID-19 Community Initiative will donate 5% of every fabric face mask sale to a charity mate in need! We can get behind that! Buy masks online here.
Glitter is definitely a neutral. A motto this Tasmanian based crafter swears by. Her luxe sparkle masks are selling out pretty much as soon as she posts, so get in quick and follow her Instagram restocks to purchase online.
By the way, sequin masks and a sequin Risk-Taker Tote = match made in heaven.
These masks aren’t technically made in Australia, but they are Australian owned and help support an amazing local cafe business that is definitely feeling the Covid-19 pinch. St Ali’s masks are made from copper anti-microbial materials and innovative hemp technology, woven together with incredibly complex 3D knitting. Plus they look badass, grab one here.
Melbourne based designer and Illustrator Sara Sidari, has combined her passions into some seriously glamorous, breathable and lush linen masks. We can't get over how divine these look and feel. Grab a mask here.
