Kathy, the designer and manufacturer of the clothes, has many, many years experience in the trade, and whilst I was there visiting the shop, she was hard at work at her sewing machine filling orders for their new shop soon to open in Perth...Kim, the other half of this successful brand, was looking resplendent in her Zeega outfit, attending to customers front of shop....this is definitely a brand that will appeal....here
