Welcome to the Gorgeous Rock 'n' Swing Gear
Print-Friendly Information Page
Who are we ???
Mary Busuttil & Ray Harris established gorgeous on 1st November 1999 in Melbourne, Australia.
Our passion for dancing is ongoing, as we were dancers & dance competitors long before we started gorgeous.
There's a world of difference between “cost” & “value” - it's said “quality is remembered” long after “price is forgotten”,
& gorgeous customers receive top quality shoes, clothes memorabilia & other items at very affordable prices.
They're not cheap prices & they're not expensive prices - but they're certainly excellent value for money.
It's no accident that over 80% of our business is from previous customers, referrals & recommendations &
you can read some of their comments, letters & emails on our gorgeous customers website page.
You can call in & see us
If you live in Melbourne, Australia - or you're here for a visit, you're welcome to call in to personally check out
our gorgeous range of shoes, clothes, etc at our home-based showroom in Craigieburn.
Having a “home-based” showroom helps us to keep our prices very competitive, because we
don't have the crippling overheads that naturally occur with a “traditional shop front”.
These savings flow through to all our gorgeous customers, whether you're local, interstate, or anywhere in the world.
We also display our range at Rock 'n' Roll, Swing & Rockabilly dances, classes & festivals throughout Australia.
You'll be most impressed with the quality & range of gorgeous items that you “won't find in your local shopping mall”
not to mention of course, our friendly & personal, efficient Aussie service.
Possibly you're thinking
“Yes, all this gorgeous stuff looks OK - but I wonder what their shoes, clothes & other stuff are really like ???”
If so, we suggest you read what many of our customers write on our “gorgeous customers” web page...
Our Gorgeous Shoes
Rock 'n' Roll, Swing, Rockabilly, Ceroc & Hotrod dance & street shoes
STYLES & COLOURS
 Over 150 styles, plus your choice of colours - the most comprehensive  selection of quality  two-tone dance & street shoes anywhere in the world.And if your colour preferences are not on our “gorgeous dancin' shoes” page,
then please ask us as
we may still possibly be able to help you.AVAILABILITY
If you multiply 150 plus styles by the possible colour combinations, it equates
to 10's of thousands of individual possibilities - & if you multiply these
possibilities by the sizes - then we're talking "telephone numbers".
Gorgeous can't logistically (or financially) carry such huge stocks, although we do carry a good inventory of the "most-ordered" styles & colours.
DELIVERY
It can take 4 - 6 weeks for your shoes to be made in non-stock styles/colours,
although it's usually much quicker - that's the bad news out of the way.
The good news is the shoes are fabulous in both style & quality & you'll
soon discover that they're "worth the wait".
WEARABILITY
With only 2 exceptions, ALL gorgeous shoes are suitable for outdoors wear.
If you want to carry them in a little bag to dances & classes, then that's
quite OK - but you don't have to, if you don't want to.
SHOE SIZES
All sizes for the gorgeous shoes range are shown on our site in BLACK,
refer to the "shoes conversion chart" for your local sizes.
COLOURS
"Bleyer", "Alexi", “Danstep & "Rockabillity" are different manufacturers
with different sources, so not all colours are universally available.

Our Gorgeous Shirts
A great many rock 'n' roll, rockabilly & swing dancers, competitors, bands &
performers all over the world are now wearing our gorgeous shirts.
And a growing number of hotrod enthusiasts, rally teams & racing car and
bike teams are also now making the choice of wearing our gorgeous shirts.
Like their amazing cars & bikes, these shirts are fully “customisable”.
They can be made completely to your requirements - in your design, & in
your choice of colours - (& there's over 60 great colours to choose from).
These fabulous shirts certainly help you to “stand out from the crowd”.
We can make them in matching designs for the "gals", so that the ladies don't
feel “left out of it” -
& if you want names embroidered on them - no probs.We also have two other very fast-growing markets.
10-pin bowlers: many bowlers now prefer the more stylish “retro” look - rather
than boring polo shirts - gorgeous shirts can be made in their team colours
or designs, & the extra space of the rear gussets are fabulous for bowling.
The corporate sector: many companies & marketing organizations now want
something “different”, but “smart-looking” for Trade Fairs, Sales & Marketing
Conferences and the like - especially when there's “teams” involved.
gorgeous shirts are top quality, fully guaranteed & very affordable - & you can
email or phone us with what you'd like & we'll get back re prices, timing, etc.
In the meantime, get your “creative juices” flowing & check out some shirts at

Rockabillity Shoes
|
 |
Rockabillity prices depend on style chosen - & also on the heel & / or sole chosen.
Rockabillity shoes can be made different sizes for each foot - but because 1 pair of soles is effectively discarded, an
additional cost applies. They're made standard with top quality Resin Soles, & can be worn both indoors
& outdoors, & unlike most of today's “over the counter shoes”, they can be re-soled at your local shoe repairer.
They're also available with suede or leather soles &/or heels - but a surcharge applies.

Our Clothing Range
With a range of over 250 garments, it's virtually impossible to list all the individual prices, especially
when the differing garment styles, fabrics, trimmings, & sizes are all “part of the equation”.
Because Mary makes most clothing lines on a "to order" basis, there's no formal catalogue or price
list, especially as our range is constantly changing & evolving.
It's best to choose the garments & fabric types from our site you're interested in, or to let us know what
you would like to be made - then email or phone us with your sizing, preferences, colours, etc., so
we can then contact you with some gorgeous "specifics" - obviously with accurate pricing.
dresses
 skirts
tops
petticoats
t-shirts
lindy & sailor pants
|
ladies shirts
bowling shirts
retro-scene shirts
dragonfly shirts
steady shirts
other men's shirts
|
Fabric ranges, types & colours tend to "come & go" - meaning fabrics shown on the gorgeous website
may or may not still be available. But if not - we can usually recommend a suitable alternative.
We also carry an extensive range of other gear that we “buy in”, including labels such as
“Boogie Beat”, “Retro-Scene”, “Dragonfly”, “Steady”, “Route 66”, “Australian Spirit”, “Hoon”.
The range, prices & availability of the garments under these labels are constantly subject
to change, so please email or phone us for current info, availability, prices, sizes, etc.
|
See the complete clothing range at: Gorgeous Clothing & at: Gorgeous Retro Gear
 |
FREIGHT INFO
|
|
Both local & International orders are sent through the
Australia Post Office unless requested otherwise
Mail from Australia to almost anywhere in the world
usually takes about 5 to 6 days
 |
Gorgeous Payments
|
 |
If you decide to place an order & intend to email your credit card information to us - then to ensure
that "hackers" cannot obtain your credit card details, we very strongly suggest that you split your
card numbers into three "segments" & then send the segments to us in three separate emails.
Eg: Assume that your card number is 4516 0523 0497 9872 & your expiry date is 09/11.
You would send the numbers 4516 0523 in your first email, then send 0497 9872 in
your second email, and then send 09/11 in your third email.
This method helps ensure that unauthorised people do not access your credit card information.

Shoe Sizes
Although every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, the charts below are only a general guide.
As with clothing sizes, shoe sizes can & frequently vary with differing manufacturers, styles,
designs, etc - & can sometimes result in a wide variance in fittings.
Additionally, interpretations in so-called 'standard' sizes for each Country means that 100% accuracy
is effectively unattainable & we suggest that a half-size 'larger' is usually your best option if
you're unsure - & if there is any 'slack', this can be corrected with a quality inner sole...
