Staff Q&A with Abby

What's your favourite item at Robe?

My favourite Robe item is the Unreal Fur Wild Dream coat. We get so many comments in-store about how high quality the Unreal Fur range is. They truly are the most beautifully made faux fur coats. They fit perfectly and are stylish but understated. You can dress the Wild Dream down in Brisbane for the warmer weather with a singlet or even a classy bralette. Or of course if you’re travelling somewhere a bit colder, it is perfect to layer with.

What are you studying at University?

I study Journalism/Arts majoring in Economics and International Relations. My degree gives me the best of both worlds - I get to explore my creative side in Journalism while maintaining my logical side at the same time! Assisting with media and PR at Robe has been amazing to put my learning into action.

Where's your favourite spot to dine in Brisbane?

My favourite restaurant in Brisbane is Honto in Fortitude Valley. I was actually introduced to it by Ed who also works in-store. I love Japanese food and Honto, in my opinion, is the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere also has a fun and edgy mood to it - perfect if you’re getting dinner before you go out!

Your next travel destination...

Considering Japanese is my favourite cuisine and I’ve never been there before, it is definitely next on my bucket list. I would love to go shopping and try all the food in Tokyo, see Mount Fuji and of course go skiing!

What's the most underrated piece at Robe?

The most underrated Robe item is the Bridget and Jenni set in Black Scattered Floral. I’m always finding new ways to style the set. I love to wear the Bridget tied up to cinch the waist, with some classy heels and statement gold jewellery. Both the Jenni and Bridget are great to wear by themselves too. I often pair the Bridget with a mini skirt for a more casual look.
