Dunedin Launches New Online Shopping Platform

Last night saw the launch of an innovative new online shopping platform called Notion, that is the brainchild of Megan Fairley.

As the first Associated Event of iD Dunedin Fashion Week 2018, some of New Zealand’s top emerging and established designer’s labels were modelled amongst the crowd at the Underground Market to a very receptive audience.

You don’t have to go far to find Megan’s inspiration, her mother made all her clothes as a young girl, even entering the Hokonui Fashion Design Awards one year. It is this love of fashion combined with a desire to make a difference and inspire other women that had led to the launch of Notion – a dream that Megan has had since she was in her early 20s.

Not only is this an opportunity for you to find some of the most successful New Zealand designers, but Notion is also highlighting the up-and-coming designers from New Zealand.

“All of the products are sourced from trusted, premium designers. We have personally selected all the brands that we really love and that share the same values and ethics that we do”, says Megan.

Notion also provides an innovative new measuring system called ‘My Size’ that ensures the fit of each garment you select, is as close to perfect for your body as it can possibly be. The idea is based around the fact that the whole online shopping experience should be pleasurable. Add to this that Notion do the challenging work and research the designers for you and then provide personalised service, attention to detail and beautiful bespoke packaging.

“Everything about your experience should be easy”, says Megan. Her love of design and fashion is infectious and add to that her attention to detail that is to be the Notion signature. Everything has been produced to the highest standard, employing some of New Zealand’s top web designers, marketers and social media experts to ensure that your experience is just that – easy and an absolute pleasure.

Megan happened upon a TV interview where she once heard someone say, “you can waste a lot of time working for someone else”. That lit the spark for her to try to follow her passion and the result is Notion.

“We are really happy with some of the designers that have come on board. Deval, Beats Clothing, Standard Issue and Australian designers Gillie and Marc are just some of the brands who you will be able to find online to buy at Notion. Our plan is to grow and bring the best of fashion design to you in your home, and hopefully you will get the same sense of excitement that we do”, continues Megan.

In a society where more people are choosing to do their shopping online, this is one ‘Notion’ that is not just timely – but a perfect fit.
