Caressa Murphy
Marrying the ancient art of storytelling with modern wearable clothing, Caressa Designs crafts delightful children’s wear that envelops our young ones in rich culture. A nod to our ancestors, every piece ensures all Australian children grow up proud, strong, and deadly.
Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our choice of materials— primarily 100% breathable cotton—and our minimal waste policy. Even our biodegradable packaging can be composted, reducing landfill and
our carbon footprint.
At the heart of Caressa Designs is a deep connection to ancient Aboriginal narratives, meticulously woven into every piece of children’s clothing we craft. Our garments aren’t just pieces of fabric; they’re a tapestry
of stories, a living testament to a rich heritage that dates back thousands of years.
While our designs are rooted in tradition, our practices are firmly anchored in the present, embracing sustainability at every turn. Made with care on the NSW South Coast, our pieces are lovingly created in small batches. This not only assures uniqueness but also allows us to stay true to our ethos, echoing the rhythms of the Land we so deeply respect.
Caressa, a Proud Gumbayngirr woman, is the founder and creator of Caressa Designs. Located on Dharawal country, Caressa is passionate about sharing culture through her range of children’s fashion—ensuring the
world’s oldest living culture continues to thrive in modern times.
