If you don't live in Melbourne, Victoria (Australia) - then
this page probably won't be of much interest...
But anyway - just in case you're a little curious,
here's a little info about where we're from...
..............................................
We live in Craigieburn... Craigieburn is a suburb
of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia...
Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia with
a population approaching 4 million people - and
is the capital city of the State of Victoria...
[ see maps at end of this page ]
Melbourne was host city to the 1956 Olympic Games
& hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2006...
[ read & hear Ray's olympic comments
44 years on in 2000 - it was Sydney's turn..
However... if you do live locally - the following lists the
rock 'n' roll & swing dances where you can meet Mary & Ray...
And whenever we have clothes on display, you can personally
inspect the range, quality and reasonable gorgeous prices ...

Selection of pikkies from some of the dances, festivals, etc
where we've show-cased gorgeous clothes, shoes & stuff...
former gorgeous Adelaide distributors Wendy & Neil, with
their stall at the Adelaide Rock 'n' Roll Festival...
Ararat Jailhouse Rock Festival
gorgeous have two vans "on the road" displaying our shoes 'n' threads
at dances, classes, festivals throughout Melbourne & Victoria...
Our other van is driven by Marc & Tamara:
Contact Mary or Ray if you live in Victoria, Australia and you'd like to
schedule a gorgeous "roadshow" for your dance, class or festival...

Where to visit the gorgeous showroom
gorgeous are located in Melbourne's northern-most suburb of Craigieburn...
Depending on where you live or work, we can be a fair distance for you to come, but you'll soon discover that we're well & truly “worth the trip”…
We have a "home-based" showroom, so we're very flexible with the times that you can call in to check out our very extensive range of shoes, clothes `n' other goodies...
Having a “home-based” showroom also helps us to keep our prices competitive - because we don't have to pass on the “crippling shop overheads” that are part & parcel of the additional rent, power, insurance costs, etc., that would be necessary with a traditional shop-front location...
The savings we make as a result, are passed on to all our customers - whether you're "around the corner" - in "another Australian State" - or "anywhere throughout the world"...
As well as visiting our showroom during normal business hours - many of our customers see us during the evening or on a Sunday afternoon, because of their normal work or business commitments...
The only time that we usually can't make appointments, is from around midday Friday to around midday Sunday - because much of our stock is packed away in our two vans, & as a result, your choice would obviously be somewhat limited...
But it's very important that you do phone us first whatever time you're intending to call in, just to make absolutely sure that we're going to be here when you do want to come over - especially as we can sometimes be away at rock 'n' roll, swing, rockabilly, hotrod or other events...
We're located at:
21 Wattleglen Street
Craigieburn Vic 3064
Melway Ref: 387 A8
Just follow the dotted blue line on the maps below - we're located right where the circled "Red Star" is shown...
With the new “Craigieburn By-Pass Freeway”, we're only about 25 minutes drive from Melbourne central, if you're driving here “off-peak” - however, if you're coming out during the afternoon traffic peak, it will be more like 35 to 40 minutes…
If you're flying here, Craigieburn is around 15 minutes from Melbourne Airport - or if you're driving down the Hume Highway from Sydney, Craigieburn is the very first suburb you'll get to in Melbourne...
Alternatively, we display our complete range of gorgeous shoes, clothes & other stuff at many dances throughout Melbourne & Victoria, & occasionally interstate...
Contact us if you'd like to know where we'll be setting up our gorgeous displays in the near future…

If you live in Melbourne, Australia - or you're here for a visit, then
you're most welcome to make a time to call in to personally
check out our gorgeous range of shoes, clothes, etc
at our home-based showroom in Craigieburn…
We also display our range at rock `n' roll & swing dances, classes
& festivals in Melbourne, Victoria & occasionally Interstate…
You'll be most impressed with both the quality & range of items
that you certainly “won't find in your local shopping mall”…
Not to mention our friendly & personal, efficient Aussie service…

FREE INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE CALLS
You can talk to us at gorgeous from your computer absolutely FREE
It's just like talking over the telephone - but you don't have to pay
those horrendously expensive international phone call rates
You'll need to install a clever little freeware program called "Skype"
Once you've installed "Skype", search for us under "gorgeous-gear"
in Australia - & you can then speak to us completely FREE
You can even call people who don't have "Skype", or have a computer
Yes, it does cost you a little, but we really do mean "a little" - & it's
also considerably less than those International Phone Cards
eg: Check out the costs of a 30 minute call between Australia & the
following Countries - & the costs are the same in either direction:
USA:
|
US 62 cents
|
 |
New Zealand:
|
NZ 98 cents
|
Canada:
|
CA 72 cents
|
 |
South Africa:
|
Rand 3.8

Details are on the "Skype" site - under "SkypeOut"
If you have a webcam, we can even "eyeball" while we're talking
with "Skype" video calling - & this is also completely FREE
"Skype's" PRIVATE chat function includes a conference call facility
In the course of our gorgeous business, we make many calls to our
customers right across the world - & as you can probably tell
from all this, we're absolutley rapt with "Skype"
"Skype" is a fabulous utility & so easy to use - it's saving us a "bundle"
“I knew it was over when I downloaded Skype,” Michael Powell, chairman, Federal Communications Commission, explained. “When the inventors of KaZaA are distributing for free a little program that you can use to talk to anybody else, and the quality is fantastic, and it’s free – it’s over. The world will change now inevitably.”
