About

Carla Zampatti was an Italian-born Australian fashion designer and businesswoman who founded her eponymous label in Sydney in 1965, renowned for empowering women through elegant, sophisticated designs featuring sharp tailoring, sensual draping, and bold palettes. The brand, now led by her son Alex Schuman as CEO, celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2025 by opening Australian Fashion Week with the 'Ubiquity' runway show, collaborating with 14 Australian designers to honor her legacy. From boardrooms to ballrooms, Carla Zampatti has shaped modern Australian women's silhouettes for six decades, dressing prime ministers, royalty, and high-powered women.
