BLUEY THE GROUPER – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket

A Sydney Legend. Woven into History.

"Blue Murder!" The headlines screamed when Sydney’s beloved giant blue grouper, Bluey, was allegedly taken down by a wayward tourist’s spear. But was it even her?

The tale of Bluey of Gordon’s Bay is one of Sydney’s most infamous urban myths—told in countless pubs, passed through generations of mates, and debated in just about every corner of the city. A local icon, the massive female blue grouper was untouchable in spirit, even if the truth behind her fate remains a mystery.

The Bluey the Grouper Raw Silk Jacket honours this oceanic legend with a striking step-weave, designed to echo the scaly brilliance of its namesake. Rich, deep blue silks interweave with aquatic tones, mimicking the fluid movement of a grouper gliding through the currents. This jacket isn’t just a statement—it’s a tribute, ensuring Bluey’s legend lives on.

HOW TO WEAR IT

Dress It Up – Pair with a crisp white or seafoam-blue shirt and tailored navy trousers for a look as effortlessly commanding as the legend itself.
Dress It Down – Keep it coastal with light-wash denim and a relaxed linen tee, embracing the laid-back charm of Sydney’s eastern beaches.
