Launched in 2016, autark was founded as a response to both the needs of the modern woman and the wide-ranging impact of the fashion industry on the world.

Autark designs are striking, investment pieces created from the most luxurious of silks, cottons, linens and an array of natural fibers, that are carefully considered in their construction for maximum wearability and versatility. 

Pieces are reflective not only in their function, juxtaposition of fabrics and minute detail but in the way they are constructed, in Adelaide and Melbourne, Australia.

 

Production is monitored to ensure that wastage is minimised through the limited and attentive production of pieces, and that all autark garments are created ethically and fairly. 

Innovative and bold yet feminine designs are the hallmark of autark pieces, created in mind for a woman who is strong, individual, and knows her own mind.

Autark’s award-winning designs have shown at Afterpay Australian Fashion Week, the Adelaide Fashion Festival, Melbourne Fashion Week, and were nominated for the National Designer Award in 2021.
