Fashionista Kit Willow-Podgornik hit the big-time in 2003 with her exquisite designs for gowns, lingerie and outerwear. A favourite of Cate Blanchett, Willow's Melbourne boutiques opened in 2009 (a second is in the GPO on Bourke Street) as glamorous experiences in themselves, with fine art sharing the wall space.
