Where a passion for tailoring was born
While not nearly as historic as our Saville Row or Neopolitan cousins, Oscar Hunt has its very own (and very distinctly Australian) origins.
With humble beginnings in Melbourne at the Olsen Hotel in South Yarra, Oscar Hunt has now scaled to include showrooms in Sydney, Brisbane, The Gold Coast and Adelaide.
Loved for its contemporary and deliberately laid back style, it’s a true Australian brand that’s been built on a commitment to excellence and a customer first mindset.
Here, we unpack those foundations for your enjoyment.
A made-to-measure opportunity
Founded in 2010, the Oscar Hunt founders recognised a gap in the Australian market for truly tailored suits that combined all the excellence of tailoring tradition with a deep appreciation of the Australian lifestyle.
Recognising the opportunity, the team embarked on a mission to introduce made-to-measure tailoring to a broader market at an accessible price point.
A far cry from the suit halls of department stores, the experience centred on (and continues to centre on) each customer walking away with a suit that wasn’t simply adjusted for them, but rather constructed to their specification.
Collective expertise
To bring this commitment to custom excellence to life, our founders assembled a collection of expert fitters and tailors with international experience. They are the bedrock on which the brand continues to operate today.
Focusing not only on technical capability but also their ability to achieve quick rapport with clients, they represent a break from the mould of fussy, old school tailoring.
A unique experience
In this same vein, Oscar Hunt has a legacy of creating not only exceptional garments but also exceptional customer experiences.
Far from the fitting process being a chore, the team works tirelessly to make clients comfortable with complimentary drinks from our in-house bars and spacious fitting rooms that are less cubicle - more lounge.
