Our Story
Painted Bird evolved from a passion for the ‘hard to find’ piece; bespoke styles, cuts and textiles found in premium vintage clothing from the 1940’s to the 1970’s. These styles are easily incorporated in to our current looks.
In days gone by, individuals chose patterns and fabrics, tailoring garments that created a story by infusing garments with personality, identity and occasion.
These designs enhance existing body form, swathe natural beauty and produce a signature ‘statement look.’ Carefully handpicked pieces from France, Italy and other parts of Europe ensures our collection is Grade A Vintage, High End Wearable Art.
On buying trips, we only select classic and unique garments of the highest condition; with the philosophy that all pieces must be distinctly wearable. These past creations are carefully curated to be an addition to our present day wardrobe. It is almost guaranteed that you will never see another garment like it anywhere.

Reviews
What a fabulous experience shopping here! LOVE the roomy fitting room - I needed it with all the wonderful things to try on. Thank you so much Stephanie for finding gems for me to try on, and finding the perfect outfit that was ME, and so wonderfully unique. You were so patient and helpful. and I LOVE it. You have sourced such beautiful items, all exceptional quality. And your store is so lovely to be in, I could spend ALL DAY fossicking for treasures! Thank you! What a fabulous breath of fresh air! Will be back FOR SURE!
Today was my first time in this shop and I went in because two people highly recommended it. Stephanie is a generous, welcoming, patient and passionate person who loves every piece in her collection of vintage treasures and is keen to learn which ones sing to You. She has fun dressing you up and helping you to find things you'll truly love, utilising her talent for picking out colours, styles and accessories that flatter. I had a lot of fun and was surprised that some things I never would've picked for myself suited me the best. The other customers who came in were from across the full spectrum of age and were having fun too. Thanks again Stephanie.
