Then
Founded in 1996 in the vibrant city of Melbourne and what was once the heart of Melbourne fashion, Bridge Road, Bardot quickly became a beloved name among Australian women. The brand was established with a clear vision: to embody women's empowerment through thoughtfully curated, playful, and bespoke pieces that serve as an extension of our unique personalities.

Now
The fashion industry changed, and so did Bardot. While our foundational DNA remains intact, we have embraced our role as a catalyst for change, championing slow fashion and advocating for ethical, sustainable practices. Our commitment then, as it is now, is to design garments that resonate with women who wish to express their individuality through fashion.

Anchored in exceptional craftsmanship and timeless designs that celebrate life's significant moments, Bardot’s fervent dedication to women endures. After 26 remarkable years, we find ourselves more inspired than ever, proudly designing locally with artisans and manufacturers, while eagerly sharing the exquisite Bardot style with the world.

At Bardot, we embody the empowerment of our fierce customers. Our curated, exquisite creations are designed to reflect the diverse expressions of our wearers. Bardot is a love letter to the female form, making her feel as good as she looks. We remain steadfast in our commitment to reducing our environmental footprint and positively contributing to both people and the planet.

A Word from Our Founder and Creative Director “Carol words”
“Design from the heart. I am excited to wake up and design fresh new ideas, and I feel this is my chance to create a vision with no limitations— timeless, high-quality, and thoughtful designs, bringing Bardot closer to where it truly belongs. I woke up one morning and decided to do what I had always envisioned—creating more considered garments that prioritise quality over quantity, reflecting a more thoughtful, conscious approach to fashion. This is my chance to take the brand to a new and next generation of fashion."
