Retriever tote by APEM STUDIO

APEM STUDIO is a Melbourne-based fashion and craft studio—built from my appreciation and passion for fashion. I’m focused on designing men’s garments—especially casual jackets, bags, and belts. My journey has been shaped entirely through online learning, where I’ve explored everything from design and pattern making to garment construction. And yes, I can sew, I shape fabric and texture into wearable. I tend to keep the base silhouettes simple, but I’m always tempted to spice things up with vibrant threads or bold trim colours. It’s my way of keeping clean design full of personality. It’s all about keeping things simple, but never boring. While most of the work happens in-house, I occasionally collaborate with boutique production houses for specialty processes like printing. These partnerships are always intentional—never outsourced for scale, only for craft. Everything from APEM STUDIO is either made to order or released in small, limited runs. No mass production. No trend chasing. Just timeless design, built with care and meant to be worn, lived in, and kept. APEM STUDIO is not about trends—it’s about timeless designs, thoughtfully crafted and made to last. LIMITED, personal, and created with intention. It’s Labour Of Love.
