Home-grown Maiocchi is well known for its fun, vintage-inspired frocks. Brighten your wardrobe with custom prints, '50s silhouettes and the odd Japanese influence. Your next summer cocktail dress aside, the boutique also stocks tops and pants, plus fresh, quirky Australian jewellery, bags and colourful sandals. You'll find it to the left of the Adelaide St entrance to the heritage-listed Brisbane Arcade.
