Australian fashion label Manning Cartell has signed an exclusive department store deal with David Jones after severing ties with former stockist, Myer.

The Sydney-based label, which had previously been stocked at Myer for the past six years, will sit amongst David Jones’ growing stable of Australian designer brands including Josh Goot, Camilla & Marc, Dion Lee, and Ginger & Smart. The department store’s local designer category has reportedly experienced an impressive year to date growth of 31.7 per cent.

Manning Cartell’s latest womenswear range will be available on a department store exclusive basis at David Jones from the commencement of the Spring/Summer 2015 (August 2014) season, launching into ten key stores nationally as well as online.

David Jones GM womenswear Sophie Clark said Manning Cartell is an established and successful Australian label that will further flourish at David Jones.

Manning Cartell was founded in 2005 by sister trio Cheryl, Vanessa, and Gabrielle Manning.

The label has four Australian boutiques across Sydney and Melbourne, the brand is also stocked internationally at Harvey Nichols and selected top tier boutiques.

The first drop of the Manning Cartell collection will be available online and land across ten David Jones stores nationally in July.
