A celebrity favourite Sydney-based label has sold in a deal rumoured to be worth well over a billion dollars in the highest-ever valuation for an Australian fashion brand, a far cry from its humble beginnings as a Paddington market stall.
Zimmermann is widely considered the country’s most valuable fashion label, having achieved global success far beyond that of previous Australian fashion luminaries Sass & Bide, Collette Dinnigan, and Ellery.
Since then, Zimmermann has reached dizzying heights, showing at Australian Fashion Week until 2012 before leaving for New York Fashion Week and opening their first overseas store in 2011. The brand now boasts over 58 stores worldwide and remains a favourite choice for Australians gracing the world stage.Mary wore the Aussie label Zimmerman while visiting Paris for her nephew's confirmation.

Princess Catherine of Wales sold out a white broderie anglaise dress from the brand when she debuted it during her Australian tour in 2014 and has worn Zimmermann on multiple occasions since.
