Melinda from Pineapple Tours - QLD - Australia
"I can thoroughly recommend Linda Mackay Design in Seminyak. I visited earlier this year with my Pineapple Villa design and decor group. Several of us came away with beautiful linen pieces that will be forever pieces. Gorgeous quality, cut and service and just that little bit different. Thank you Linda for your warm welcome!"
Kim Pollard from Presentation Plus - Australia
"I have been following Linda’s posts on Instagram for quite some time and I knew on my next trip to Bali that I should visit this lovely store. I am very pleased I did! Linda and her staff were so helpful with my selections and I was able to have pieces customized to my fit which is excellent. Lovely fabrics, colours, great styles and wonderful service. What more could you ask for!"
Pam Apte . Brisbane - QLD - Australia
"Thanks to Linda and her team I love wearing my linen clothes made to fit. The cut is perfect and the fabric is the finest quality. I feel so relaxed in my summer lounge pants and sleeveless top which are perfect for our Brisbane climate. I love the selection of colours so I can mix and match my wardrobe."
Lara Barwick . Melbourne - VIC - Australia
"I bought the most gorgeous linen summer dress from Linda. It has become my favourite dress, the quality of the linen was very high as was the workmanship. Every time I put this dress on, I feel fabulous. Linda is a very talented lady and the customer service was excellent too."

Sandy Connors . Brisbane - QLD - Australia
"Whilst on a recent holiday in Vanuatu I had the pleasure of meeting Linda in her exquisite Linen Shop. I was so impressed with her garments, the wonderful designs, fantastic colours and quality of linen was top shelf. Each garment was perfectly stitched and featured great attention to detail. Her fashion knowledge is first class and she knows just what will suit, but also listens to what you want. I absolutely love my pants and tops and when I returned to Australia I ordered several more. I am very happy to personally recommend any of Linda Mackay Designs….a MUST for your wardrobe."
Graham Daniels . Sydney - Australia . Port Vila - Vanuatu
International Director . Danel Trust . Sydney - Australia
"You never get a second chance on a first impression, and although clothes may not make the man, they sure do introduce him. I tend to do my clothes shopping during downtime on international business trips, in locations where style is valued. Linda, your linen shirts are in a class of their own and up there with the best I have found anywhere in the world!"
Jake Daniels . Sydney - NSW - Australia
International Marketing Manager . Danel Trust . Sydney - Australia
“I walked into Linda's shop in Port Vila and was instantly impressed with the fabric on offer. I ordered two tailor made shirts that were made to the exact fit and colours of my choice. The service was very personal and the shirts have gone with me all over the world. I never leave home without them."
George Dyer . Suva - Fiji
General Manager Airports . Air Vanuatu (Operations) Ltd . Port Vila - Vanuatu
“I found Linda’s service was of a high standard and she has a keen eye for detail. Additional fitting service ensured I had a very nice shirt that fitted me really well and comfortably. Her advice on fabric choice was very helpful and her range of colours gave me good choices. The quality of sewing is top notch and the end product was value for money. I would recommend Linda without hesitation."
Lauris Farquhar . Murrurundi - NSW - Australia
"If you want a quality product that makes you feel special every time you put it on, this is the one. Attention to detail, beautiful fabric, and personal service second to none, not to mention the gorgeous colours. I am aiming for another three in the near future, and can’t wait to get back to Linda’s beautiful island."
Dr Susan Harwood . Perth - WA - Australia
"I found this delightful linen shop on my first visit to Vanuatu and have visited and made purchases on each of my subsequent visits. This is the right shop for you if you like highly personable service when you select from a wide range of top quality, washable linen styles in a range of colours that suit and fit well for every age - that is, not just made for the young and thin!"
Melanie Hughes . Sydney - NSW - Australia
“The pure linen products are superbly styled and finely made with high quality linen. I purchased a white dress and top over two years ago now, both garments remain in great condition; they wash easily, are easy to wear, and will never go out of style! I look forward to adding to my pure linen collection in the future."
Simone Hughes . Port Vila - Vanuatu
"I have purchased seven of Linda Mackay Designs and just love them! I have worn and washed them multiple times and the colours are still brilliant. Linda, your garments are quality and professionally made - no short cuts - and I just love the way you package them. By the way, thank you for going out of your way to resize the last garment in record time so I could take it with me on my holiday. I recommend all and sundry to buy from you - so if you ever need me to write a true testimonial of your work and great service please let me know. I will be back!"
Helen Irish . Kingscliff - NSW - Australia
"I really enjoy wearing Linda Mackay Designs. The linen is of a wonderful quality, crushes less than any other linen that I have worn, the designs simple and very comfortable and suit most occasions and I find that they always fit well and I love the range of colours. Good luck with this venture. I am looking forward to my next purchase which will be pants with the fitted waist band."
Isake Komailevuka . Nadi - Fiji
Project Management Executive
“...very happy with Linda's workmanship and have purchased ready made ladies wear for my nieces and daughters and also ordered for myself, "made to measure" hand finished linen shirts which are crisp, stylish and comfortable...Linda is very friendly and soft-spoken with a personal touch, very sensible and practical approach on fabric choice and gave great tips on how to wash and press the shirts to keep for a long time...”
Cheryl Malloy . Ballina - NSW - Australia . Honiara - Solomon Islands
"I have purchased five gorgeous linen items from Linda Mackay Designs boutique in Port Vila Vanuatu. Linda went to extraordinary lengths to ensure my shopping experience was first class and she made sure I had the right size and style to suit me. We talked about fabric and fit; how to wash and care for my clothes and shared our views on whether linen needs ironing at all – I hate ironing and love my linen unironed! Linda understands fashion and good design and I'm always happy when people comment on how nice her pieces look on me.”
Cathy Miller . Queenstown - New Zealand . Melbourne - VIC - Australia
"What a wonderful range of clothes Linda has. I bought a classic navy dress which goes everywhere. The best thing about it is I can literally throw it in my overnight bag and come out looking like a million dollars ! I always get comments when I wear it. The detailing and quality is superb".
Madelyn O'Malley-Jones . Tweed Heads - NSW - Australia
Elaine Sanson . Auckland - New Zealand
"I have now purchased seven items from Linda. I loved my three quarter Capri pants, they were so comfortable and well-made I decided to buy a full length pair as well. While purchasing these, I also spotted a lovely top in Terracotta which I also purchased and have worn heaps through the NZ summer. The colour hasn't faded at all, it is still as new as the day I bought it. The service is brilliant and all purchases are beautifully wrapped to make you feel very special."
Val Smith . Gold Coast - QLD - Australia . Melbourne - VIC - Australia
“I love your linen. I think the finish on your garments is exceptional, and the linen that you use is extremely good quality. It washes well and is long wearing."
Michelle Winrow . Byron Bay - NSW - Australia
"I highly recommend Linda Mackay Design, I have had the delightful experience of purchasing two classic stunning linen dresses from Linda. The whole purchasing and alterations process was so professional. I have never encountered such a seamstress that takes such immense pride in her work, consequently the quality and the attention to detail in my dresses are outstanding. Every time I wear either dress I constantly get asked where they are from. I'm looking forward to adding more dresses to my wardrobe!!"

Hi Linda
Thanks you so much for your offer -you are really generous. I would like the coffee coloured ones in lieu of the black. As we do not have a post office box our local address is probably best. Safe travelling and thank you once again.

Hi Linda

Hello Linda
My shirt has arrived and I love it! I took it into town to the shop I was telling you about and she loved it also, the fabric and the quality. She will be very interested to stock if you decide to wholesale. I do need to loose a little in the bust for it to be perfect on me, so will wait until I come over again to Vanuatu to try some other colours. Thank you so much for the beautiful packaging and your client service which is above and beyond. Wish I was over there now. Warm Regards.

Hi Linda
Just a quick email to say how nice it was to find your beautiful shop and to be able to purchase your fabulous clothes. I am absolutely thrilled with my pants and would like to ask if you still have any size 16 left in the drawstring lounge and or Capri styles. The Italian linen is great so if you still have the buy 2 get one free I would like to order size 16, can you advise what colours you have left. I would like black, aqua and maybe red if possible or the white in the Capri style. Kind regards
Sandra
