M.A. Dainty: Wearable Art Named After a Woman Worth Knowing
Founded in 2011 by Michelle Barry, M.A. Dainty is named after her great-aunt, Maud Alice Dainty, a woman of the world who documented her travels, shopping adventures and photographs in daily journals that now fill The Box, home of the M.A. Dainty label. Maud Alice Dainty was a woman ahead of her time, and the fashion label named in her honour carries that same fearless, individual spirit into every piece it creates. This is not fashion for the faint-hearted. It is fashion for women who love clothes that tell a story, who want to fill their wardrobe with pieces that are unique, standout and made to be loved for years. lanaberg

Some of Your Important Questions Answered
Is Lana Berg an official M.A.Dainty stockist? Yes. We buy directly from the brand, so everything is current season and genuine, not grey-market.
Is it cheaper to buy M.A.Dainty direct from the brand instead? Pricing is set by M.A.Dainty, so it is the same no matter where you buy it. The difference is what you get around the purchase. Message us before you order and we will tell you honestly if a piece will fit and suit you, based on handling this stock every week. Buying direct, you are guessing alone.
Does M.A.Dainty run true to size? Depends on what you are buying. See the notes above. Short version: knits and jackets run big on purpose; silk and denim are closer to true to size.
Do you stock Circular by M.A.Dainty? Yes, as its own collection. Pre-loved and re-released pieces from past seasons, for anyone who wants in on the label without buying new.

We recommend cold machine wash on a delicate cycle with a mild, eco-friendly detergent. Avoid tumble drying. Air-dry in the shade to preserve fabric integrity, colour, and shape. Some pieces (silk, wool, sequins) require dry cleaning. Always check the care label sewn into the garment first.
We've been styling Australian women for over 20 years and we want your investment pieces to last.
