In a statement, the Brandbank Group, which owns the distribution rights for the British fashion brand in the country, said that the Australian fashion label would “deliver effortless everyday style that captures the essence of Australia’s relaxed modern lifestyle”.

Unison will be “uniquely Australian,” adds the company, and will be designed in Melbourne with a strong commitment to quality. Brandbank adds that the new look will pay homage to its past while stepping forward into the future as it enters into a new era of modern Australian style.

It adds that ‘Unison Essentials’ will serve as the foundation of the brand’s offering for men and women, providing “the perfect effortless wardrobe,” alongside monthly capsule collections, showcasing seasonal updates.
