About Us

Service by Experienced Professionals 

The dream for Opal Formal Wear began in 1957 by an inspired Greek Cypriot tailor. He fell in love with Australia’s opal stone while travelling around the country in the 1970s, and used the gem as a spark to start a suit factory that went on to become a chain of successful Opal menswear stores. 

>> Opal Formal Wear was recently awarded ABIA's "BEST GROOMS FASHION for 2019, 2017 & also won this award in 2015" - Victoria.

The Opal legacy remains strong today. Along with a host of other accomplishments, in 2005, Opal won the “Fashions on the Field” award at the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, and we were also recently awarded ABIA’s “Best Groom’s Fashion 2019, 2017 & 2015 and runner-up 2014, 2016, 2018"for Victoria, and 3 best ABIA National Award winner 2019.
