Welcome to Makers Of Melbourne – the ‘go to’ guide for our technically integrated age.
Makers Of Melbourne has been created to consume and assimilate Melbourne culture. We're male focussed, but not male specific, sorting through the dross to weed out the creative stars, standout events and stylish folk that make this city unique.
MOM aims to embrace all facets of what makes this city a creative hub. Our aim is to inform without condescending – to keep you abreast of what’s going on without regurgitating Press Releases & to seek out this city’s sub cultures to give our readers the inside scoop on what’s REALLY happening with the people who make Melbourne Melbourne.
Makers of Melbourne grabbed marketing maestro Alvin for a photo from the line for Sydney photographer Giuseppe Santamaria's 'Men In This Town' book signing at the Henry Bucks flagship store on Collins Street. Alvin was dressed for the warm evening, wearing vintage loafers, H&M shorts, Prada bag, ASOS tee and vintage jacket.

Last night saw some of Melbourne's best dressed men gather at Henry Bucks on Collins Street to celebrate the launch of Melbourne based shoe designer Christian Kimber's debut footwear collection.

what a joy a sunny afternoon in Melbourne can be. Barry was on a jaunt-around-town as we passed in a laneway and was most uninclined to be photographed by shoemakers.. but the gathering crowd supported us, encouraged Barry, and all enjoyed the moment. Barry was a picture of style and comfort in his 10yo Julias Marlows, Donegal tweed blazer, stalker and Burberry trench.

It's a pleasure to have Paul Smith arrive in Melbourne at long last - a true fashion legend and one of the nicest guys in the industry to boot. We couldn't resist celebrating Sir Paul's Melbourne arrival when we came across Gareth in his fantastic merlot wingtips.
