Head of Information Technology
DISSH
DISSH is a purpose-led fashion brand driven by female empowerment and the want to make real positive change and impact.
Spearheaded by CEO and Creative Director, Lucy Henry-Hicks, who draws on years of experience and a legacy within the fashion industry. Guiding the brand towards a sustainability-minded model with refined collections designed in-house with intention – resonating and connecting with a now global community.
We’re all about creating refined silhouettes with a natural affinity for feeling laidback (even when your day is far from it), reflecting our roots in the sunshine state of Australia. With feel-good natural fibres, thoughtful detailing, and longevity in mind, our collections are crafted to uphold a new model of conscious fashion. Our design team leads with intention, bringing you considered collections that arrive with the season, but become a seasonless addition to your wardrobe.
