    Dotti is a chain of fashion stores in Australia and New Zealand, selling apparel and accessories. It was acquired by the Just Group in 2004.[1] It markets itself as a fast fashion brand.[2] Their target group is young female adults aged 18 to 28.

    History[edit]

    Dotti was founded by Raymond Levis and Linda Bowen in Sydney in 1981. The name "Dotti" may have been inspired by Linda's mother Dorothy, or Via Condotti, a street in Rome known for its fashion stores.[3]

    In August 2004, the Just Group acquired Dotti for A$5 million.[4]

    In December 2009, Dotti opened its 100th store in a shopping centre in Melbourne's western suburbs.[5]

    In April 2011, Dotti launched an online store, adding a New Zealand specific online shopping site in 2015.[6]

    By 2017 they had 220 stores, 198 in Australia and 22 in New Zealand.
