This is one of my favourite Kookai stores because it’s always SO quiet compared to other Kookai stores. Here you can escape the chaos of the mall and be left to find that perfect party dress. This is also very helpful when trying to squeeze into the tight, tight, tight dresses at Kookai. There’s nothing worse than popping out of the changing room to get another size to find a whole crowd gawking at your bottom poking out of a super tight dress. Yes. You know what I mean. It can be mighty awful. But at the Albany store it’s way down the end of the mall and it’s probably so quiet because you have to walk a marathon to get there! But it definitely helps me to feel comfortable when trying on not-so-comfortable, but totally awesome dresses. Kookai Albany, you get a thumbs up from me!

Up until this weekend just gone, I was a pretty big fan of Kookai. So when I went to find something for the weekend, I popped into the store to see if they could help. Before I’d really even looked around I found myself thinking ‘meh’. It is a good place for staple items, although these staples can be pretty expensive. They have A LOT of tight stuff, in pretty much every shade. And it is all in that sort of tog material stuff. There is a good selection of dresses and tops, and is always a number of things on sale. The store is pretty massive so there is a lot of choice. The service is very attractive and friendly, often in that slightly over the top, ‘hi hun!!!’ way, but hey, they’re perky and helpful. As it is an Australian brand, the sizings are Australian, namely sizes 1 and 2. Size 1 is 6 – 8, and 2 is 10 – 12, i’m not sure they go any higher actually. I will still definitely pop in every now and then, because they do get some really nice stuff, but it isn’t my first choice.
