Slender Morris Furnishings — Crafting Textile Stories Since 1948

Since 1948 - From Boutique Beginnings to National Reach

Born in 1948 when two enterprising cloth‑makers joined forces, Slender Morris has spent 3 generations turning a passion for beautiful textiles into a trusted name across Australia and New Zealand. What began as a boutique family endeavour now spans a flagship Sydney showroom and a coast‑to‑coast network of sales agents who bring our collections straight to the workrooms of more than 2,000 retailers and designers. The business is still and owned and run by the founding family. 

A Global Fabric Library at Your Fingertips

As we grew, so did our global reach. Long‑standing partnerships with leading mills in Belgium, Turkey, the UK, and beyond give us privileged access to over 10,000 fabrics—with a special focus on European‑sourced linen and linen‑look sheers that deliver organic texture, graceful drape and effortless light filtration. Each roll is chosen so refined style never has to break the budget.

Exclusive Australian Distributor of ILIV

Our portfolio is further elevated by ILIV, the UK’s fast‑rising interior‑fabric house. As the exclusive Australian distributor, we offer ILIV’s inspired ranges of decorative prints, embroideries and textured weaves—perfectly coordinated to simplify scheme building and spark fresh design ideas.
