Some collaborations feel like old friends – familiar, joyful, and always brimming with new stories.

That’s exactly how it feels working with Brisbane artist Michelle Grayson from Sprout Gallery – we love her, and we know you do too!

This is our third collaboration with Michelle, and if the past two are anything to go by (remember Forever in Blue in 2019, and our 2024 Something Blue Collection?) we know this one’s going to be an instant classic. Dare we say… it might be the most magical one yet!

Michelle’s work is steeped in stories.

She paints blue and white porcelain vases and plates that feel like heirlooms from far-flung places – delicate, detailed, and always a little bit magical.

For A Moment in Time, we’ve taken her beautiful hand painted artwork and spun it into striking wearable works of art.

When porcelain plates and pretty frocks collide, you just know Michelle Grayson from Sprout Gallery is involved.

What’s inside this moment?

Bigger is better: we’ve scaled Michelle’s porcelain vases up to make them even more show-stopping and popped them along the hemlines of easy-to-wear frocks. Think: wearable art gallery, minus the “please don’t touch” signs.

Navy is the new neutral: this collection leans into darker, moodier blues and navy, with crisp whites, and of course those iconic porcelain tones.

A surprise pop: our Mavens begged for more green, so we’ve slipped in a bold green frock that feels fresh and just a little bit unexpected.

Everyday with a wink: we’ve styled a printed porcelain top back with a denim skirt that we’ve trimmed with an adorable ric rac trim. It’s playful, it’s practical, and it’s going to be just the thing to wear on the weekends in summer instead of jeans.

Why we love working with Michelle

Here’s what Dee had to say about this collab:

“Michelle’s blue-and-white work is timeless – it feels both nostalgic and brand new at the same time. Michelle’s work brings a painterly perspective to Maiocchi that I just love, and this collection is really about celebrating the beauty of art as something you can wear in your everyday life.”

A Moment in Time is our ode to slowing down and savouring beauty – porcelain that won’t gather dust in the cabinet, but will instead make every day feel like an adventure.

It’s classic, but it’s playful.

It’s wearable, but it’s art.

And most importantly? It’s made for you.
