The Tales — A Brand That Knows Exactly Who It Is 

Founded by Rachael D'Alessandro, a multidisciplinary artist based in Sydney, with a background in fashion design and a parallel career as an artist and DJ, Rachael approaches clothing with the same sensitivity she brings to her visual art: an understanding of rhythm, composition, and storytelling across mediums. 

Rachael’s visual practice spans painting, digital art, graphic design, and album cover illustration, with her work appearing on releases for global music labels such as MoBlack where she currently also works as the Art Director. 

Thus was born the brand's tag line the ‘Art Department’. Every garment carries a sense of expression, emotion, and confidence. Creating an effortlessly cool aesthetic deriving from a concept of ‘intelligent grunge’ a yin and yang of romantic feminine masculinity. Designed by creatives for creatives. 

The Tales feels deeply personal —  collections that read like chapters: cohesive, poetic, and full of detail. The Tales is a brand rooted in true creative expression. 

From the perfectly weighty cotton shirts to the soft fall of silk, The Tales understands that true luxury is found in comfort. Their garments don’t try to transform you — they simply accompany you, elevating your everyday. 

The collections are unisex, inclusive, and endlessly wearable — fashion that allows you to express yourself without rules or trends. 

A shirt becomes a staple. A jacket becomes a companion. A dress becomes a feeling. 

These are clothes to live in — to wander, to rest, to create, to play, to dream in. They aren't for everyone, and that's ok.
