Ms BROWN at the Matteau Resort 2019 Dinner in Sydney

On Tuesday 8th May, Ilona Hamer and Peta Heinsen of Australian swim and resort wear label, Matteau hosted a dinner in Sydney to celebrate the launch of their Resort 2019 collection ahead of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia starting this Sunday, 13th May.

A room full of friends — writers, jewellers, designers, artists, photographers and entrepreneurs sipped cocktails and prosecco and enjoyed classic Australian fare at the iconic Bills in Bondi.

Ms BROWN partnered with Matteau on the night, gifting each guest a Ms BROWN Delicate Wash - the perfect accompaniment to their Matteau swimwear.

"This gift bag is a coming together of like-minded brands, friends of Matteau, carefully curated with you in mind - we hope everything you find in here enhances a little part of your life in some way, every day"
