Behind the Brand | Matteau
The Standard Store is made up of carefully curated brands that embody our ethos of buy once, buy forever. Matteau was a no-brainer for us in this regard! While we typically lean toward stocking brands from the Northern Hemisphere, Matteau’s pieces are so special, we knew we had to make an exception.
The name itself blends ‘matte’ (not shiny) with ‘eau’ (water in French) which reflects the brand’s fluid yet understated aesthetic. Matteau pieces outlast trends by offering timeless silhouettes and beautiful fabrications, which are made to be in your wardrobe for years - not just a season. They also have a fierce commitment to quality across both design and production. They partner closely with Australian manufacturers to ensure each piece meets their high standards for fit, durability, and sustainability.
We love Matteau because their ethos aligns with our own: quality over quantity, and style that endures - so if you're looking for modern essentials that are anything but ordinary, Matteau is the brand for you. Shop the collection online or in-store now.
