New online journal The Fashion archives, which launched last week, focuses on Queensland fashion stories, past and present, by exploring heritage collections from public and private collections, large and small.

The Fashion archives describes itself as "Nimble in its approach to the bricks and mortar traditions of the costume archive and the fashion exhibition, {the} digital format is exploited to show a massive range of materials, including collections of garments and archival images not normally exhibited due to their fragile states".

It is curated by Brisbane-based researchers Nadia Buick and Madeleine King.
