About hunter gatherer

When it comes to all things vintage, hunter gatherer stands out from the pack. Every frock, blouse, handbag, skirt, coat, trouser, hat and shoe at hunter gatherer is specially handpicked from the hundreds of thousands of wardrobe items donated each year to the Brotherhood of St Laurence’s 21 community stores or “op shops” across Victoria.

But it doesn’t stop there...hunter gatherer also sells a range of boutique jewellery sourced from local artisans. Some of the many hidden delights you may stumble across in store include; Greg Mann, who crafts using antique cutlery, Run Wild Horses, who turn vintage clock parts into steampunk-inspired pieces, Gabriella Hirst, who works with fimo to make necklaces and bangles with a coral look, and the sweet designs from Scrumptious Productions. Fans of upcycling will also adore the hats made of vintage fabrics from The Cat’s Pajamas and Lydra’s clutch purses fashioned from pre-loved fabrics.
