Welcome to Gulgong

There’s plenty to see and do in picturesque Gulgong, a town that is steeped in history.

The rustic, gold rush town of Gulgong was the beautiful backdrop to our September fashion shoot and it’s a history buff’s dream. Much of the town has been classified by the National Trust and original store facades remain intact, so a stroll through the streets is a journey back in time. The poet Henry Lawson lived here for a year as a boy, and it’s the town that featured alongside his portrait on the old $10 note. Gulgong is also home to the southern hemisphere’s oldest operating opera house, and there’s plenty more to see.

Our gorgeous models, Lou Kenny (right) and Nadine Bush (below) helped us celebrate innovative Aussie fashion labels and designs around the town.
