If there were a fashion label that captures the essence of an Australian summer, it would be Matteau. Created with love in Noosa by sisters Peta Heinsen and Ilona Hamer, the brand synonymous with cool-girl style has become a wardrobe essential since it first broke onto the resort scene in 2015, scoring celebrity followers along the way including actors Phoebe Tonkin and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
“Summer should be as relaxing as possible, so my wardrobe is always very classic and comfortable and always includes a black swimsuit, white shirt, black silk trousers or cotton shorts,” says Hamer.
