Sunday Life magazine

If you live in Sydney or Melbourne and buy The Sun Herald or The Sunday Age you may have noticed ASTROPUNKS in the Sunday Life magazine insert. Leo Sayer is on the cover but his cheesy grin wasn’t as big as mine!

Tots Encore

I thought the location of the first ASTROPUNKS exhibition was worthy of a post for parents keen to buy affordable designer kids clothes, and sell them once the clothes have been outgrown.

Tots Encore offers a wide range of new and barely-worn premium brand children’s clothing. Labels typically stocked include: Kenzo, Catimini, Oilily, Ralph Lauren, Paul Smith, IKKS, Absorba, Bebe, Petit Bateau, Minihaha, Gaia, Nature Baby, Gap, Benetton, Diesel, DKNY, Fred Bare, Guess, Mamas & Papas, Monsoon, Osh Kosh, Seed, Nature Baby, Pure Baby and NEXT.

“I wanted to create a destination where you could recycle and update your children’s wardrobe with beautiful pieces, on a regular basis. There is an eclectic mix of high end established brands together with up and coming Australian designers and we have new consignments in each week to keep things interesting,” said Justyna Wild, owner of Tots Encore.

Tots Encore is currently exhibiting ASTROPUNKS debut series, In the Woods. The exhibition has now ended.

Where: 306 Bronte Road, Waverley NSW 2024
When: Open Monday to Saturday 10am – 4pm
Phone: 02 9387 5286
