Girl graduates, girl practices law, girl has a change of heart, designer follows her dream. This is the story behind Billie: unisex footwear for the streets that first hit the scene in 2007.
Billie fuse “classic casual” with “effortless edge” to bring you on-trend footwear at an accessible price point for guys, gals and littlies. From the modest beginnings of the CRUISER design, Billie now boasts a comprehensive range of classic and fashion forward footwear that has made it the brand of choice for the style conscious and trend setters of today.
The company founder “Suz” has long been inspired by the streets of London, New York, Milan, Tokyo (and of course, Sydney), “it’s the eclectic mix of style, colour and energy of the people that has lead me to believe that shoes can attract as much, if not more attention then the clothes they accompany”.
Innovative fabrics and a never ending colour pallet has become Billie’s signature and these shoes have earned their place as a wardrobe staple. From rummaging in flea markets, searching through vintage boutiques and endless travel adventures, Billie scours the globe for to up-to-the minute footwear that will take you from the beach to the streets to the club.
Billie can now be seen in more then 400 doors Australia-wide and recently made waves in the New Zealand Footwear Industry when it was launched in mid 2010.
