One of my absolute favourite styles of cuisine is Asian-fusion – a blend of classic Aussie fare and delicate Asian flavours and techniques. As far as food goes it’s as good as it gets and just thinking about it is making my mouth water! But today I want to talk about a new kind of Asian-fusion I’ve discovered: Little Urby – www.littleurby.com.au.
What does an adorable childrenswear online boutique have to do with cuisine? Quite a lot actually, because Little Urby is the spirit of Asian-fusion personified. Created by two Australian-based Asian expats, Phylice and Lin from Malaysia and Singapore respectively, the store showcases the best Australian childrenswear and decor brands with some truly wonderful finds from Asia. Lin and Phylice have lived in Australia for 10 years now and they’re committed to supporting our talented local designers even while they introduce stunning Asian labels new to the Australian market. I’ve got to say, the resulting mix at Little Urby is delectable!
On show at the moment is Little Urby’s new Autumn range featuring some fabulous brands out of South Korea including Annika, Amber, Amber Pure, Soft, Mery Jane and Peach&Cream. South Korean children’s fashion has all the practicality children need but the fashion is forward-looking and edgy with quirky little details and wonderful fabrics. You’ll also spot Singaporean label Project Little and its kimono-style babywear – simply gorgeous and *very* giftable.
So we’ve talked about the Asian part of the fusion, but what about the Aussie ingredients? You won’t be disappointed: Three Little Trees, Anton’s Lane, Boon, Printspace, 41 Orchard, An Angel At My Table, Annabel Trends, Forwalls, Little Chipipi and Dotty Spot Design. Plus, coming later this month, you’ll find Polka, Cocoon Couture, Little Lamb and Giddy Giddy at Little Urby.
