History
Eva Galambos launched her career in fashion at Armani, where she developed skills in fabric selection, visual merchandising, and operational management. After playing a role in the introduction of Arena magazine, she came back to Australia to create Parlour X.

In 2009, Parlour X launched its online shopping platform. By May 2015, the store moved from Fiveways Paddington to the historically significant St John’s Baptist Church building in Paddington, strengthening its retail footprint.
