- INTRODUCING GEHRICH -
Considered Design
Each GEHRICH piece is an original
design led by our designer and co-founder, Samantha Gehrich. Our designs are
considered in both form and function, with a strong focus on creating timeless
styles that make you look and feel exceptional.
Quality & Materials
We love natural
fibres! And we try to use them in everything we do. If you like exceptional
quality and luxury then you will love and appreciate the quality we put into
each and every GEHRICH piece.
Sustainable Collections
We believe in the
theory that less is more and we champion quality over quantity. Collection
sizes and production numbers are purposely limited by us in order to create a
more exclusive and sustainable brand.
Ethical Operation
At GEHRICH we are
dedicated to operating in an ethical and socially responsible way, We choose to
manufacture the majority of our pieces in Australia and support local industry
wherever possible.
Personality
We won't sell you a
fantasy. We live, work and play in the real world. We value courtesy and like
our customers, we expect responses to questions, assistance with a problem and
transparency where it counts.
- THE DESIGNER -
- OUR STORY -
In 2013 we decided to take what was a small home based label offering outerwear to a limited number of loyal customers and try to turn GEHRICH into a global luxury brand with a difference.....
A brand that can take a stand against fast-fashion!
We wanted GEHRICH to be built on sustainable values and offer people the chance to own exceptional quality fashion pieces that are thoughtfully crafted and constructed to stand the test of time.
Over the past two years we have invested in set-up, our first collection and all required branding but now we need your help!
Our goal is to engage with our customers, fashion lovers and people that share in our vision and crowdfunding is the perfect platform for this. Raising money to expand GEHRICH is important but equally important is the chance to engage with people, grow our global following and grow awareness of our brand and values. If you believe in our vision and would like to support GEHRICH, please keep reading and check out the fantastic perks we have to offer!
- WHAT THE MONEY WILL BE USED FOR -
The money we receive will help us....
1. Fulfill fabric orders with our Australian and International suppliers.
2. Pay for production of our AW15 Collection in Australia.
3. Pay for garment trimmings, collection photography and talent.
4. If we exceed our goals we could use some money to expand our marketing reach and take on opportunities to show our collections at local and international fashion shows.
- SHARING IS CARING -
Your support can help us grow awareness for GEHRICH globally!
We need to gain attention from potential customers, fashion buyers and retailers worldwide. If you believe in our vision and love our products then you can really make a huge difference just by talking about GEHRICH and sharing our story with friends across your social networks.

MELBOURNE COLLECTION - Men's
As with any business, there are risks and challenges involved and in fashion the main challenges come from dealing with suppliers, garment manufactures and finally supplying finished garments to customers. Throughout the past 12 months and the production of our first collection we have been able to build strong working relationships with suppliers and manufacturers. We have worked to solve potential issues and put in place a reliable supply chain that presents far less risk.
As for our AW15 collection - with your help we hope to be able to manufacture and have finished garments ready for delivery in late April 2015. Timing issues can arise but we have factored an allowance for minor delays in manufacturing and our supply chain in the estimated delivery dates.

- PLEASE NOTE -
Duty/Tax charges: If you live outside of Australia, you will be responsible for any applicable duty or Tax charges associated with importing our goods. Please check with your local customs/tax offices.
Customs: Anything we send to you should not be an issue for customs and should clear easily but these services can vary from country to country. Some countries are known for being very slow with customs so please be patient. We will do our best to help you with any customs issues should they arise.
Delivery time: In manufacturing there is always a risk that suppliers do not fulfill orders on time. While we are confident of our supply chain and the time allowances for hold ups, sometimes issues can be out of our control. Should any problems arise we will let you know and do our absolute best to make sure we can supply rewards by the estimated date or even before.
Thank you for supporting GEHRICH.
