If you’re a retailer or buyer based in Melbourne and looking to source the latest brands and products on the cooler side of style and design, then Life Instyle & Kids Instyle is your playground.

The annual Life Instyle trade event invites retailers and buyers to Meet Your Makers at the Royal Exhibition Building, Melbourne (from 31 July to 3 August). This exhibition welcomes an outstanding curated line-up of over 350 carefully selected exhibitors representing premium, bespoke and design-led products across homewares, gifts, lifestyle and children’s products within a beautiful, intimate shopping environment. Considered Australia’s destination for style, Life Instyle Melbourne continues to support the best in Australian design and is set to bring to life Melbourne’s true essence.

‘We’re delighted to return to Melbourne, a city that celebrates design and style, culture and art. This year, retailers are invited to Meet Your Makers by discovering the story behind the brands, meeting the creators themselves to unearth where inspiration really begins,” says marketing manager, Emma Radford.

Running alongside Life Instyle is Kids Instyle, showcasing babies and children’s fashion, accessories and homewares.

Visitors can expect to source from premium brands including Bonnie and Neil, Ahoy Trader, AURA by Tracie Ellis, Design by Them, Bison Home, Kate & Kate and Paper Empire.
