With A Little Help From Our Friends
This year is a little different to most, and we think you deserve something (and someone) truly special, so we have hand-picked a selection of talented creatives to inspire you with everything a visit to Chadstone can offer from this season and beyond. And of course, we start with our long-time Chadstone Ambassador, Bec Judd…
Bec Judd | Chadstone Ambassador

Hailing from the west coast, Bec Judd has made her mark as one of Australia’s most iconic media figures with an illustrious multi-hyphen career, alongside being a long-term ambassador for Chadstone for the past five years. Bec is a name synonymous with beauty and style, constantly wowing the crowds with her knock-out outfits, whether it’s on the red carpet or at a school pick up. Bec juggles her digital influence and being a mum to four with enviable levels of confidence and poise. Her ideal weekend involves taking her little ones for a movie at HOYTS, a spot of cheeky shopping, and a rewarding sweet treat to top off the day, all under one roof at The Fashion Capital.
Introducing Chadstone’s Friends of The Fashion Capital
Joining Bec, we’re excited to work with these five new friends showcasing how to elevate the everyday in all areas of life by sharing curated insights for style, cuisine, entertainment, lifestyle and home décor.

Aimee Tarulli

Aimee Tarulli has always had an unwavering love affair experimenting with textiles, colour and design, leading her to launch her very own design firm, Archer Interiors. Think prints of the Amalfi Coast above your bed, chic monochromatic bathrooms and marble kitchen benchtops, Aimee has an impeccable eye for a house that is designed to ‘wow’. When this artistic connoisseur isn’t busy sharing her jaw-dropping design products and collaborations, she’s raising her two children with her husband. Aimee adores visiting the beautifully curated spaces at The Fashion Capital, shopping for homewares underneath the Gridshell Roof and sipping coffee at Industry Beans, while scanning the pages of Elle Decor.
Erin Maxwell

Erin also runs The Maxwell Note – a thoughtful and curated artistic platform that tells aesthetically divine visual stories with her audience. As a homebody at heart and mother to three, Erin frequents Chadstone in search of treasures for her home which she uses to curate special pieces for her family and captures in memorable moments through the camera.
Julia Busuttil Nishimura
@juliaostro
If Melbourne were to crown a foodie queen, lo and behold our very own Julia Busuttil Nishimura – culinary goddess, food writer, and author of two best selling cookbooks. Julia transformed her love of food into a trailblazing career, combining her Maltese upbringing, her time living in Italy and her marriage to Japanese husband Nori with their two children. Her appetite for shared experiences around the table inextricably ties into Chadstone’s mission to bring the community closer together. Julia has nurtured a simple brand that aspires to bring loved ones together through her authentic, drool-worthy and family-style recipes.
Kristy Wu
@kristywho
Monochromatic fashionista Kristy Wu can’t deny she’s a sucker for some simple wardrobe basics, a Melbourne brewed iced coffee and a fresh pair of chunky sneakers. Being a style authority and trendsetter above all else, Kristy has become an adored household name in Melbourne known as ‘Kristy Who’. Kristy epitomises Chadstone’s style, mixing aspirational brands with attainable looks, with a finger constantly on the fashion pulse. This fashion enthusiast is instantly recognisable for her sunglass collection, vintage designer goods, and loves spending her days shopping at The Fashion Capital to amplify her ever-evolving wardrobe.
Melanie Liu
@thetiafox
Melanie, or The Tia Fox as some may know her, is a creative wizard with an Instagram grid and blog to obsess over, covering everything from high-end fashion to wistful travel inspiration. Melanie has always had a cheeky love for the finer things in life regarding fashion and style, which goes hand in hand with Chadstone’s array of luxury brands. Melanie balances her dedicated passion for creating beautiful content, celebrating creativity, and being a mum to her two children. Melanie rarely passes on the opportunity for a weekend outing to Chadstone to discover cute outfits for her little ones and to have a little peek at her next fabulous purchase for her own closet.
Special thanks to our Friends of The Fashion Capital and our team who produced and captured the images virtually in the homes of each Friend.
