Size
Fortitude Valley’s TCB is brimming with trendy new boutiques ready to dress the masses. Recent TCB addition is Size. Since the centre opened it has been buzzing like TV static, but Size has fine-tuned fashion. It opened its doors in August with a cheeky flamboyancy and daring sense of style that is redefining Brisbane’s fashion output.
Their concepts store is fresh, with that very clean, minimalist look but you can’t hold that against them when they have such a diverse and unique array of men’s and women’s styles and accessories.
Their summer range le SHIT is sporting clean lines and hot designs. Not convinced? Well resident Family DJ tyDi is; he joined the ranks of the Size converts showing off threads for the guys.
Still not convinced? Size was also honored in the final of the Australian National Retail Association Fashion Awards for the menswear category. Add an official selection amongst Australia’s top five emerging fashion labels and a feature spot at next year’s Homeback festival. Its full speed ahead for the Size visionaries.
And if you’re still worried you’ll be seen wearing the same thing as a taller, skinner, smoother chested guy, you could always get SIZE to make you a one off piece, tailored to fit!

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
