What to Wear in Melbourne

Melbourne Style Tips

Black is king for business here. Looking well groomed is very important, if you want to fit right in.

However, for going out, go as casual as you like.

During the day in the summer it's hot, so our advice is to pack lightweight, loose fitting clothes in natural fabrics such as linen, silk and cotton that will keep you cool and are easy to wash and dry.

Jeans are always popular and will serve as a versatile base to your wardrobe. Wear them with cool layers such as a t-shirt and light jacket for the summer (December, January, February) or warmer ones e.g. a long sleeved shirt and sweater in the winter (June, July and August).

Pop a lightweight raincoat in your bag – it tends to rain quite often.

Wear plenty of sunscreen, sunglasses and a sunhat.

A lightweight day sack will come in handy to carry your sightseeing essentials.
