The Cupboard is an enduring, iconic Auckland boutique – with its own unique styles.

It creates exclusive, original clothes that are luxurious and timeless. For more than thirty years, The Cupboard’s select, international clientele has visited this sophisticated fashion house in Parnell, Auckland to choose custom-made clothes and accessories as well as unique prêt-a-porter styles found nowhere else.

Couturiere and owner Diane Burkhardt draws upon Eastern and Edwardian influences, lavish brocades, beading, silks; soft cashmeres and warm wools; crisp cottons and wool knits. Her designs are layered, textured and complex that are intrinsically ‘New Zealand’. The colours she chooses resonates the landscape’s restrained shades and unexpected drama.

Other labels exclusive to The Cupboard include succhi collection, colleen behren's hand knits and The Cupboard's boutique label.
