Paloma Rose Garcia spent sixteen years in fashion, including a stint with Hermes and fifteen Australian Fashion Weeks, before turning the old Oscar Oscar space on Oxford Street into something closer to a curated hotel. Polished wood floors, muted tones, fresh flowers and copies of Monocle and The Gentlewoman set the tone. The welcome ritual runs to Beauty Chef elixirs and matcha, served in Maison Balzac carafes, because the details are the point. The signature is the lived-in cut, worth its reported two-month wait, and Kevin Murphy colour led by the blonde whisperer Ash Croker. Undone yet elevated. You will think about the scalp massage for days.
