| If the Flinders Lane fashion precinct had a colour scheme it would be red and black to reflect its changing fortunes. But the Nicholas Building has long endured as an important creative hub. Entry to the Deco era building is via the Cathedral Arcade with its vaulted leadlight ceiling and cluster of niche boutiques including Alice Euphemia and Genki. Upstairs is Retrostar’s vintage emporium, the Victorian Writer’s Centre and a diverse vertical community of artists and artisans including jewellers, designers and milliners. Studios are generally appointment only but the look out for open days and sales.
