New look Made590 Website!

This season we decided to give the website a whole new look, have you noticed?

The amazing Emma, in her new job role, has been taking many photos of all our new stock, deep etching them and then adding a cute background. Our clothing page now looks super pretty:


This process is a lot more time consuming and tedious but I am sure you will agree that the website looks far prettier! A big thank you goes out to Emma for being such a perfectionist!!

We also have a new character on our home page:

This season our deer mannequin features with our new Black Cardy, Roomance Skirt and Red Basic Tee, yay!

I am horribly biased but I think we have one of the best websites around, this is all thanks to the amazing duo of white pixels as well as Emma and Kelly who spend hours loading up products, facebooking and blogging. This is a side to the business that a lot of people don’t see how much work goes into and that I love because the magic elves just make it happen :)

Over the last 7 years Made590 is extremely lucky to have had the best staff ever, I am honored to have and continue to work with such lovely, hardworking girls. They have all put up with all my stresses, 2 pregnancies/babies, tradeshows, the launch of the mega wholesale business and oh how the list goes on….. I hope you love the Made590 girls as much as me!!

Childhood Memories!

I was stupidly excited when we got this book in on Friday, it has to one of the best cook books ever published!!! Whenever this book came out in the Kelly household you knew it was because a birthday was coming up and we could choose whichever one we wanted. I had to wait all year for my turn but boy it was worth it!! And judging by customers reactions over the weekend we all have fantastic memories about this book, so many people commented ‘I remember this’ or ‘my mum made me the pig cake’.

Retailing for a bargain price of $15 you cannot afford not to have this in your cook book library… Even if its the only cookbook you own like me :) Enjoy and happy baking, Christina xx

Topshop ripoff Made by White

We are a little upset here yesterday when we found out one of our favourite brands at made590 has been copied by Topshop – Many of you will have the Made by White original and hopefully wear it proudly but you wouldn’t even spot this fake from a distance its a blatant copy.

Just another reason to boycot big chain stores and buy from independent designers! Shame on you TopShop!

You can read more here.

Here is our original (and original drawing too)
