“I had coveted Georgia’s design aesthetic from afar so when it came time to renovate our house, I knew I wanted to work with The Classic Outfitter team. We engaged Georgia and Merian to help us with a substantial renovation (4 bathrooms, laundry and kitchen and refurbishment of the entire house). From the very first meeting it was obvious we were dealing with an expert, knowledgeable, creative and highly talented team. They listened carefully to our initial ideas and needs and quickly came back with final design briefs for every room which lifted the house to another level.

Throughout the design and project management process, we came to understand that we were benefiting greatly from the teams' years of experience. The trust that was built up through the project meant that we were able to defer to the team and go with their suggestions even when it meant pushing us beyond our comfort zone. In hindsight, we’re so glad they pushed us towards what they could visualize as the overall impact. It was comforting to know that their expert design ideas always considered the practicalities of each room – ensuring beautiful and highly functional rooms. They communicated clearly at each stage of the process, recommended the most impressive builder and trades and nothing was too much trouble.

Our very large project came in early (!) and on budget. More importantly, the end result exceeded all of our expectations. Everyone who visits our home comments on how beautiful all the finishings and furnishings are. There is a natural cohesion and beauty throughout the entire house, and it is a delight to live in. We couldn’t be happier. Our experience with The Classic Outfitter team has been outstanding. We will continue to partner with them for all our future needs and have no hesitation in recommending them.”

“Having engaged Georgia and The Classic Outfitter team to help us with our relocation plans, we are a little sad that we have come to the end of the 12-month project to set up our new home in Bowral. Having said that, we are extremely delighted with the outcome.

Right from the beginning when we visited The Classic Outfitter showroom to look at mood boards featuring fabrics, samples of floor coverings and other decorative items, the time, effort, skillful and expert advice that was provided to us was second to none.

Having seen the house completely empty, Georgia was able to create plans for each individual room and provide concept drawings showing the potential positioning of all the proposed furnishings. Georgia also had a very clear understanding and interpretation of our brief and we loved seeing a blank canvas being turned into what we have today i.e. beautiful window furnishings, floor coverings, furniture and styling throughout. Interior design and placement is a special art and Georgia certainly has that talent.

We have had so many WOW factor comments, have recommended The Classic Outfitter services to many of our friends and have no hesitation providing this testimonial for others to consider engaging Georgia and her team's expertise.

It was a pleasure working with such a customer focused, dedicated and inspiring team.”

“We are so grateful to have been recommended The Classic Outfitter and Georgia for our apartment renovation. Georgia was wonderful to work with. Her eye for design is unparalleled and we could not be happier with the final result. After gaining an understanding of our vision for the apartment, Georgia presented us with several different options for design, layout, materials and furniture. Along the way she guided us as to what she felt would work well, always taking into account our preferences. She was able to bring ideas together that resulted in a stunning outcome. She is considerate of the budget and very resourceful in sourcing the right product for the right placement, where to allocate more and where to spend a bit less. Her choices were an exquisite mix of custom-made and retail pieces.

From our initial consultation to the end result of a fully renovated, styled and furnished apartment, Georgia was timely, responsive and professional in every regard. Her creative and organized approach went well beyond her scope of work, even helping us get quotes and finding a builder. Even though we were not able to meet her face-to-face a lot of the time, she made the whole process seem easy by emailing detailed pictures and drawings. Georgia worked very closely with our builder, was on-site regularly checking in on the progress, always guiding them with beautiful finer details based on her experience. She is confident in the end product and has a unique way of convincing you to remain with her design recommendations, so everything is in harmony. Once the building work was completed, she organized and setup up the whole apartment while we were renting elsewhere.

We ended up with a home that looks and feels amazing, beyond anything we had anticipated. It was fantastic to work with her and would wholeheartedly recommend The Classic Outfitter for your next renovation.”

“We engaged The Classic Outfitter to do a significant refurbishment of our house, which involved internal and external colour consultations, new furnishings, flooring and décor. They had been recommended by a friend and we loved the style that they could deliver.

The bespoke ideas proposed for two of the large family rooms came to life through 3D colour rendered designs. This was money well spent as it gave us a clear visual representation as to what the completed rooms would look like. One proposal in particular had initially been completely outside our comfort zone. This room is now one of our favourite places in the house. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Classic Outfitter who were amazing to work with. We love the end result.”

“Georgia Boyd and her team at The Classic Outfitter completed a bathroom renovation for us at our Federation home in Mosman in late 2019.

We are currently residing in California, and we were concerned about how such a project could be managed from a distance and with an impractical time difference. The job was urgent because of waterproofing issues. Georgia took on the job unfazed, with minimal notice and a limited budget.

Her efficient confirmation of the vision reassured us that she understood our briefing. Once that was established, she very effectively communicated the design options, how the work would be conducted, and how much it would cost. Choices of product were shown to us using email and web links. She and her team of builders and tradespeople worked well and respectfully with the agent and tenant. Progress photos and virtual tours were provided to us as the job advanced, and feedback and questions were easy and quick to navigate from afar.

Overall, the job was completed within budget and a tight timeframe, and we are thrilled with the beautiful result. We look forward to using The Classic Outfitter for a much larger renovation of the same house down the track, and we recommend her unreservedly. Thank you, Georgia!”

“My compliments to Georgia and The Classic Outfitter Team.

We have given them two design challenges both in an out of town and site unseen situation. The first was for a variety of dining table bench seating, based on a magazine photo. Georgia was not only able to organise the manufacture of the desired seating, but selected material for seating and cushions based on emailed photos of the location. The selection was perfect and complimentary to the existing decoration. Importantly, Georgia was detailed in her questions so as to negate any measuring errors. This had to be a team effort on both our parts. Georgia has also organised the manufacture of lounge seating for the same location - again site unseen. The timeline between initial discussion, manufacture, then delivery was swift and painless. Again, her selection of materials for lounges and cushions was fantastic.

Georgia is a talented designer. She is very competent and easy to work with. I can not recommend her more highly.”

“The Classic Outfitter are our 'go to' girls! They have organised our kitchen/laundry/study renovations.

They have recommended wonderful trades people and given us the most fabulous ideas to select from. We have also purchased lamps and furniture. New curtains are underway now too. They have beautiful taste, practical advice and an in-store range that allows you to select to your individual budget. They are skilled and helpful and we would recommend them to anyone building, renovating or simply looking to freshen up their home.”

“Georgia Boyd and the team at The Classic Outfitter have the depth of knowledge, creative insight and practical application to make every project stunning. Georgia takes the time to really understand the brief and ensures the entire process is smooth, on budget and on time. Her professionalism and attention to detail to get everything right is a clear standout. She really cares about every project, bringing to each her amazing sense of style! She always goes above and beyond to ensure her clients are truly happy and everything works well together.”

“The Classic Outfitter is the most gorgeous store you will find on the North Shore! The team have styled and sourced several rooms in our new home. I gave The Classic Outfitter creative license and they never let me down. The rooms are elegant and timeless. I couldn't be happier and constantly received comments about our classic furniture, bespoke cushions and beautifully sourced artwork. Georgia, Jane and Nicole listened to my initial brief on colours and look and the end result is AMAZING! The Classic Outfitter has sourced the best of the best from its suppliers and work quickly and efficiently to achieve your desired look!”

“Georgia and her team provided amazing support to us throughout our entire renovation process. Their holistic approach to "outfitting" our home has saved us many hours and even more mistakes! They have been thoroughly professional and have demonstrated not only their excellent sense of style, flair and creativity but their considerable technical knowledge and skills. I would recommend The Classic Outfitter without any hesitation whatsoever.”

“Georgia and Jane at the Classic Outfitter are a fabulous team. Nothing is too much trouble and they are full of ideas and both have fabulous taste. The space they have curated provides so much inspiration and if what you are after isn't in their showroom they are happy to source it for you. They are also very mindful of budgets and working within clients limits to get the best result.”

"The Classic Outfitter were instrumental in ensuring that the new construction of our home was precisely the way that we intended; together with the experience and wisdom that they brought to our own ideas.

In particular, they supported us to achieve an overall design direction, assisted with hard surface selections and made decisions on specific products and materials. This was then furnished into a professional clear document which allowed our builder to have an understanding of our requirements and costings.

We were working under an extremely tight timeframe and The Classic Outfitter surpassed all expectations by working tirelessly over a concerted period of time in order to support us.

We highly recommend them."
