Handpicked luxury fashion that no one else will have
Let’s face it, fashion boutiques are becoming churning out more and more cookie cutter style pieces and it’s getting ridiculous. You can find the same playsuits, dresses and skirts in 4 or 5 different online stores, and the only thing that’s different is the price.
A lady who agrees with me is Geri Leijon, the director at Wesson Boutique. She has over 40 years in the fashion industry and opened Wesson Boutique 10 years ago to stock unique European designer pieces that women struggle to find in Australia.
Based in Melbourne, Geri flies all around the world to countries including Italy and Hong Kong to find designer garments to stock in her boutique.
But it’s not just the style conscious women of Melbourne who crave her clothes, as she travels to Perth twice a year to present these luxury pieces to her exclusive clients (who aren’t short of a penny or two either).
Geri sets aside a few days for one-on-one free fashion consultations by appointment, where clients are able to shop the latest styles from Europe.
I was invited down to Wesson’s first Perth viewing of the year at Hyatt Regency in Perth’s CBD. Once handed a glass of bubbly, I had a chat with Geri and quickly discovered how passionate she is about high quality and unique fashion.
Then I was left to browse the beautiful bags from Hugo Boss, clothes by Cavalli and Marella (by Max Mara who is one of my favourite designers) and accessories from Versace. Here are some of my favourite pieces…






The piece that got my attention the most was this Frankie Morello coat, which was snapped up by Monique Leahy, a Colourist, Personal Style and Image Coach from Look Good 2 Feel Good.
The zips at the side detach the bottom of the coat, leaving you with a cropped jacket and, and, AND, the bottom half becomes a skirt!
I know!

It was awesome being amongst styles from Europe again. Since moving to Australia from the UK, I’ve missed the unique and innovate cuts their designers create, so thank you for the invite Geri!
