Stellar and the Chief was established in 2013 focused primarily on the niche market of Margaret River in Western Australia. 

The founder Talei wanted to create a business that showcased her vast experience in the fashion industry, of combining eclectic pieces from brands she admired from around the globe, and offering her customers a hand crafted, carefully curated product that could be described as ‘Rock and Roll Bohemia’

The recent closure of the brick & mortar store in Margaret River, has allowed Stellar and The Chief to solely focus on the online market, locally and internationally with Talei's lifestyle fashion brand The H A L E Collection

" I want to educate our customers that its not about that single piece of clothing you buy, its how you accessorise to bring the outfit together"

H A L E is a combination of simple designs, beautiful natural fabrics and earthy saturated colours.
