A brand born of grace and style. 'Born in New Zealand, Made in Australia.' From the inception of the brand, Johanna Johnson has imbued her couture collections with a renowned simplicity, glamour, grace and style and her gowns are now in demand the world-over - from the happiest of weddings to a glamorous glide down the Red Carpet.

Johanna’s designs have now been adorned by many international celebrities, with the likes of Madonna, P!nk, Angelina Jolie, Maya Rudolph, Meryl Streep, Chrissey Teigen, Kendall Jenner, Felicity Jones, Olga Kurylenko, Julia Ormond, Halle Berry, Jessica Biel, Jennifer Lopez, Emily Blunt, and Her Serene Highness The Princess of Monaco, all calling on Johanna Johnson for exclusive pieces, from gowns to accessories – and now fine jewels.

Johanna continues to work with many of the core team of artisans she has worked with for many years. We are proud to say that the same team who work on Johanna's red carpet gowns, are the same team who make each and every client gown. As we like to say we are 're-ignighting the romance and craftsmanship of yesteryear' providing local jobs and fine artisan training in a world otherwise filled with fast fashion.

With her annual bridal and red carpet collections being presented in Australia, New York, Los Angeles and throughout the U.S. Johanna is the sole designer of Johanna Johnson Inc., and continues to build both her brand and develop new projects both locally and internationally.

This new brand 'DURANT by Johanna Johnson' celebrates Johanna's long held love for historical design, intricate craftsmanship, and generally most things that sparkle. After making so many embellished gowns and accessories for the red carpet and isles all over the world, Johanna started designing jewellery for herself. Due to the many requests for these pieces and lending her own personal collection to talent for television, films, editorials, weddings, award shows and red carpets around the world, this new collection was a secret passion and one which very quickly turned into a brand all of its own.

Durant being an old family name, and her daughter's name sake, this collection, like many of her others, was created in the middle of the night and hours spent rocking her baby daughter to sleep. It was her own special project, just for herself. With her small daughter's Autism diagnosis her usual work and gown collections were put on hold so to prioritize her daughter's daily therapy and early intervention needs. After two years of away to focus on these therapies and with incredible breakthroughs and results for her daughter, Johanna is now taking this new venture to the world with her incredible little girl and two beautiful sons at her side.
