Zambesi was established in 1979 by partners Neville and Elisabeth Findlay. Under their direction it has grown into an internationally credible design label.

The collections are the inspiration of sole designer Elisabeth Findlay who also directs production from their Auckland workroom. Designs combine elements of form, structure and simplicity with a sense of irony, resulting in diverse collections, not dictated to by current trends. Successive collections evolve with seamless progression, in a manner which imbues intrinsic and collectible appeal.

Neville controls retail operations and marketing, and his passion for architecture combined with a background in engineering has influenced the environment of their retail stores. Quality workmanship and raw materials fuse to create a theatrical atmosphere of unexpected beauty.

Over the past 20 years Zambesi has built a reputation on integrity, quality and unique style, emerging with strong individual identity.

Zambesi have flagship stores in Auckland, Wellington, Sydney and Melbourne, and supply selected stores throughout Australasia, Asia and the Northern Hemisphere, including Liberty of London, ong Kong, Japan, New York, LA, Scotland, Saudi Arabia

Elisabeth and Neville attribute the success of Zambesi to the collaborative effort of their dedicated team, and an on-going passion for making clothes.
