The story

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.

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

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

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

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