Yet Another Outlet Centre For Melbourne – Harbourtown

I was interested to hear last week that Melbourne will be the new home of yet another outlet centre, with Harbourtown to open in late 2008.

According to the Docklands Waterfront website, the future home of the complex, the Melbourne Harbourtown will have 90 outlet stores and over 100 full priced retail stores.

Now, although I don’t think all the stores in DFO are outlets as I’ve previously said , I’m still looking forward to a new outlet store, although damned if I can think of any stores that we don’t already have. On a recent visit to QLD Harbourtown, the only store that really got me excited was the Lisa Ho outlet and that was mostly the Third Millenium stock. Given the very sad state of the David Jones Warehouse, I can’t even begin to get excited about that (Its where old battered stock goes to die whilst still trying to cling to its overpriced price tag). Other than that, I found Harbourtown to have very similar stores to the three existing DFO centres.

So give me some suggestions – what stores would you like to see in the outlet section of Melbourne Harbourtown?

  1. Hi guys
    These outlet centers are great but just remember a bargain is only a bargain if you realy need something.

    Hi,
    Does anyone know where I can buy items from Third Millenium in Melbourne other than DJ's and Myer? The store at QV has been closed for sometime and although pricey, I loved the styles and quality. Thanks!

  3. I've done a bit of research but can't find a website for Third Millenium – I know they are stocked in boutiques such as Green With Envy on Bridge Rd, Richmond, but your best bet would be to call their stockists number ((02) 8303 7888) and ask them, especially if you are after a particular piece which could be difficult to track down
