The Emelia Morris Style Edit
Tailored layers and quiet luxury from a Melbourne-based style expert, Emelia Morris.
Stylist and fashion expert Emelia Morris knows the power of strong lines and a sleek silhouette. Based in Melbourne - where weather and wardrobe need to work in tandem - she blends structure and ease in ways that feel both directional and deeply wearable.
Her winter picks are all about elevated tailoring, modern suiting, and understated glamour. Here’s how she styles some of her favourite looks this season:
WORK WEAR STYLE INSPIRATION
Office Style: The Power Suit
Power suiting, Melbourne style.
Emelia gives the traditional check suit a modern edge by wearing the Merit Blazer solo — no shirt required. Paired with the matching Kade Tailored Pant, this cocoa plaid set delivers on polish without sacrificing personality.
It’s a look that’s all business, but never boring. Clean lines, strong shoulders, and a no-fuss attitude make this a masterclass in cool, confident dressing.

Office Style: A New Take On Traditional Tailoring
Scuba Crepe - tailoring, reimagined.
With its softly structured finish and impeccable drape, the Pennyworth Vest is fast becoming a signature piece — and Emelia proves why. Styled with the Drew Pant, both in easy-care, stretch Scuba Crepe, the result is sleek, sculptural and distinctly Armani-esque.
It’s tailoring without the stiffness, ideal for those who want to feel put together but free to move.
WORK TO WEEKEND STYLE
Smart Casual Comfort
Soft power in tonal contrast.
Here, Emelia gives the versatile wide-leg Drew Pant a fresh take by pairing it with the cool-toned Arley Shirt in Ice Blue. It’s a subtle shift in palette - warm cocoa meets crisp blue - that softens the formality without losing impact.
A smart weekday look, yes, but also the kind of outfit you’d happily wear to a gallery visit or elevated brunch on the weekend.
Event Dress Inspiration
Desk To Dinner Style
Evening ease meets flattering form.
For events or evenings out, Emelia turns to the Nadine Dress. With its ruched waist detail and fluid skirt, this piece highlights the body’s natural curves while offering all the comfort of stretch jersey.
The Burgundy Spot print brings a playful elegance, while the silhouette carves out a soft hourglass effect — no cinching required.
