Why collectors keep coming back
- Lightweight and comfortable on fabric: These brooches are designed to sit lightly, without tugging, dragging or pulling the garment out of shape.
- Easy to layer: Because they are so light, you can wear one brooch quietly or layer several together to build your own small composition.
- Handcrafted in Melbourne: Made by hand in the inSync studio, one piece at a time.
- Lifetime care: If anything ever goes wrong, Iris will repair or replace it.
- Award-winning design: inSync design has been selected for museum stores including the V&A, SFMoMA and the National Museum of Australia.

Wear with Pebble Earrings Long Multi Line - Mauve, Entwine Necklace - Black, and Atria Ring - 22ct Matt Gold Plate for a collected look that feels considered from shoulder to hand.
Wear your brooch on a jacket, coat, knit, scarf or dress. It can sit high near the shoulder, low on a lapel, or at the centre of a simple neckline.
For delicate fabrics, test placement first or wear it through a slightly stronger layer.
A brooch is a beautiful way to flirt with boldness because you can move it, restyle it and make it your own.
Will it pull on fabric?
These brooches are designed to sit lightly, even on finer fabrics. For silk or very delicate pieces, test placement first.
Will it feel too bold?
Pin it to a jacket, knit or scarf you already love. One brooch can make familiar clothes feel more expressive without feeling overdone.
Can I wear more than one?
Yes. Because they are so light, you can layer several brooches together and build your own small composition.
Where should I place it?
Try the shoulder of a jacket, the edge of a collar, a knit, a scarf or the centre of a simple neckline.

How to wear it
Place it high on a lapel, across a knit, or slightly off-centre on a jacket. One considered placement is usually stronger than adding more.
The compliment effect
Collectors often tell us their inSync pieces start conversations. It is the kind of recognition that comes from people who notice shape, colour and detail.
