Welcome WORLD Beauty brands

The WORLD fashion label was established in Auckland in 1989 by Denise L'Estrange-Corbet and Francis Hooper.  Fuelled by their energy and passion, their vision and work has seen their label develop from a cupboard at the back of an arcade, to one of the leading fashion houses in New Zealand.

Seeing a gap in the market WORLD Beauty Store was born. It incorporates luxury skincare brands with fine fragrance alongside home scent brands with antiques and collectables. This element also complements WORLD’s belief that beauty goods can be anything and everything that one would consider beautiful.

We’re excited to introduce six of their niche brands to the site. Here’s a bit more about them:
