About

Founded in 2008 by Melbourne entrepreneur Emma Morris, Round She Goes pioneered the modern, indoor preloved fashion market in Australia. The brief was simple and smart: blend professional vintage/collector stalls with excellent wardrobe clear-outs, then curate the lot so shoppers get the highest quality and broadest range of women’s designer and vintage fashion and accessories — under one roof, out of the weather, with change rooms.
Now more than a decade on, it’s widely regarded as Australia’s premier destination for preloved designer and vintage, running three times a year across Melbourne (Coburg), Sydney (Marrickville) and Adelaide (Goodwood), with around 60 carefully hand-picked stalls at each event.

Charity partnership

In 2010, Round She Goes became the first Australian preloved fashion market to formalise a thrift-charity partnership — teaming with the Red Cross so stallholders could donate unsold pieces at the end of each event.

The impact has been huge: 100+ events nationwide and an estimated 50+ mini-van loads of quality donations funnelled to op-shops. The model has since become a blueprint for similar markets. From 2019, the team expanded the initiative to include other thrift-based charities around the country — with thanks to generous stallholders who keep the fashion loop turning.

The BioHax Take

Curated racks, real-world treasure hunting, and a charity-powered exit lane for unsold stock. It’s the best of circular fashion: high calibre, indoors, and genuinely fun. Bring a tote, a friend, and cash for that unexpected Celine moment.

Who it’s for

Vintage die-hards and designer deal-hunters
Slow-fashion converts building a smarter wardrobe
Savvy thrifters who prefer curated over chaotic

Sustainability snapshot

Circular fashion done properly: buy quality second-hand, extend garment life, reduce waste — and re-donate what doesn’t sell. That closed loop is baked into the Round She Goes DNA.
