Our Story
Bennie Mey is located in Melbourne, the city where fashion designer Elizabeth Mead started her fashion journey. She honed her skills at Melbourne School of Fashion and joined Factory 45 to bring her creative visions to life.
Elizabeth draws her inspiration from individuals' unique designs, changing seasons, and esteemed artists. From Christian Dior and Coco Chanel to architecture and artwork, and compositions of Rita Springer. She creates timeless, practical outerwear using premium and authentic materials to enrich lives in meaningful ways.
Our goal at Bennie Mey is to create luxury woman's clothing for the tall and petite silhouette using natural materials. We are dedicated to sustainable production by sourcing organic and limited edition fabrics. We also collaborate with local designers and manufacturers to bring our vision to life.
We explored additional sustainable practices including circular economy, shipping, and packaging as part of our commitment to sustainability.
Throughout the design process, we carefully selected a wool coat to serve as the signature piece of our collection. Our team of in-house patternmakers collaborated with a renowned Italian manufacturer that strongly aligns with our values and dedication to sustainability.
Our wool coat is designed with luxury in mind. It's made with a blend of soft virgin wool and cashmere, and lined with silk lining for added luxury and comfort. It is a very cosy addition to the everyday wardrobe, and perfect for any occasion.
Experience warmth and style of our wool coat this season. Support our sustainable fashion venture by investing in a wool coat that champions our debut collection and promotes well-being from field to form.
