Haven’t you heard? Mimco is so back.
From the moment our iconic Button Bag burst onto the Australian fashion scene, we’ve been encouraging you to go big, go bold and find moments of self-expression through everyday dressing. Three decades on, we’re so proud to have built our community of bold accessory obsessives — and no matter the occasion, we’ll always empower you to dress to the beat of your own drum.
We’ve created pieces that didn’t just follow the trends of their time — they helped shape them.
From the iconic Mim Pouch, the ultimate 2010s night-out companion, to the Button Bags and Turnlocks beloved by secondhand savants on TikTok to this day, our archival styles have been along for the ride through so many Australian women’s memories — from weddings and school formals to shopping sprees with your first big-girl paycheque, when the biggest decision of the day was: Mimco wallet or sparkly studs?
We’re turning 30, and what better way to celebrate than by bringing some of our most-loved icons back? The pieces that started it all — and still have the secondhand market buzzing — are coming out of the vault — and soon they’ll be yours for the taking. So, we’re opening our first-ever Archive Store for one day only in Sydney on 17 October 2026, bringing together some of your most-loved Mimco styles from the past 30 years, all under one roof. Your shopping session is completely FREE, just choose your time and turn up. RSVP below to secure your spot.
Arriving this October: our very first Mimco Archive Store.
Get ready to discover iconic styles, limited-edition pieces and much-loved bags from our archive, including unicorn finds you won’t see anywhere else. Each shopping session is curated with beautiful bags and pouches from our archive, so there will be exciting new styles dropping throughout the day, no matter what time your shopping session is.
So, if you want to get your hands on them, you’ll have to be there!
WHEN & WHERE:
Saturday, October 17 2026, 300 Oxford Street, Paddington, Sydney. 9:30am – 4:00pm.
