Born in Tasmania in 2022 by Founder and Creative Director Emma Petterwood, and raised between motherhood and creative obsession, Romy is for women like you: confident, curious, and craving something different in your wardrobe. You're not afraid to stand out—but you want pieces that last. That feel like you.
Each collection begins with print—original, one-of-a-kind artworks created with incredible artists, then translated into wearable pieces you won’t find anywhere else. We don’t do fast fashion. We don’t follow trends. We follow the feeling. And that’s how Romy works: on instinct, connection, and the magic that happens when something just clicks.
We make small runs. It means less waste, but also more joy: finding a Romy piece should feel like discovering something special, because it is.
You’ll find elevated staples with a twist, effortless dresses that go from day to dinner, and prints that start conversations. It’s clothes that say something, without shouting.
Whether you’re here for a forever print or just looking for something that makes you feel like you again—welcome. You're our kind of woman.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We design with purpose—not to fill wardrobes, but to offer something meaningful and lasting.
At Romy, better choices are built into everything we do—from the fabrics we choose to the way we work with our makers and artists. We keep our runs small, our designs timeless, and our footprint considered. Because what we make (and how we make it) matters.
Our roots are in Tasmania, but our relationships span the globe. From our all-female, Australia-based team, to our long-standing manufacturing partners and artisans in China and India, to the incredible local artists we collaborate with on every print.
Colour, print and bold silhouettes are how we express ourselves—and how you express you. Every piece is made to last, to be loved, and to live a full life in your wardrobe.
