Sydney, New South Wales

About

Overview & Vibe

True Society is a bridal retail group with three Australian shopfronts — Rosebery in Sydney, Fitzroy in Melbourne and Leederville in Perth, where it trades as True Society by Tuscany Bridal. The stylists are called the True Crew and each store introduces its team by name on the site, which is unusual and tells you who you will actually be with.

Dress Styles & Designers

Six bridal labels, each with a published price bandStella York $1,800–$3,300, Essense of Australia $2,100–$4,400, All Who Wander $2,200–$4,100, Oxford Street $2,000–$4,100, Martina Liana $2,800–$7,500 and Martina Liana Luxe up to $15,000 — plus the EveryBody / EveryBride plus-size range. Gowns are browsable by silhouette and by mood: beach, boho, long sleeve, lace, mermaid and simple.

Ideal For

The bride who wants to know the price before she walks in — very few boutiques publish a band per designer. Also for plus-size brides: gowns are stocked to size 30 to try on and can be ordered to size 36, which is a US 34.

The Need-to-Knows

  • Start nine months to a year out, which is what the group recommends to avoid rush fees.
  • No alterations in store, at any of the three. Each will give you a list of recommended seamstresses, so budget for that separately.
  • Bridesmaids are not carried at Fitzroy or Perth.
  • Bring skin-toned underwear or shapewear, and your wedding shoes if you have them — heel height changes how every gown falls.
  • Late nights differ by store: Thursday to 7pm in Rosebery, to 8pm in Fitzroy and Perth. Rosebery is closed Monday.
  • Parking: about 40 spaces at the Rosebery Engine Yards off Mentmore Avenue, street parking on Gore Street or the Smith Street station in Fitzroy, and parallel street parking in Leederville.

Standout Feature

Published price bands. Six designers, six ranges, on the page before you book — and a size range that goes to 36 rather than stopping where most racks do.
