By Contributing Editor Juliet Herd
Australian fashion designer Camilla Franks is as flamboyant and vibrant as you would expect for a woman who has made it her mission to “colour the world” with art, print, pattern and “embellishment, darling” through her eponymous label CAMILLA. Launched 17 years ago in Sydney, CAMILLA, known for its hand-painted signature kaftans and boho maxi dresses, is now the go-to luxurious resort and occasion wear brand for a flotilla of international celebrities, including Gigi Hadid, Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Kate Hudson, Olivia Palermo and Miranda Kerr. From the first boutique on Bondi Beach, the label has grown to encompass 20 stores around Australia and two in the U.S. as well as an impressive 260 international stockists across 55 countries, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Bergdorf Goodman, Harrods, Matchesfashion.com, Net-a-Porter, Farfetch, Mytheresa and REVOLVE.
