Statement of Significance
Of historical, technical and social significance as the earliest and most successful knitter of women's fully fashioned hosiery in the country. As Victoria's first fully vertical silk and rayon knitter, Prestige dominated the better-end hoisery market for forty years, consistently outperforming imported brands. The company was notable for its role as a training ground for a number of prominent businessmen, many of whom founded their own enterprises in later years, and for its role as a model employer offering a wide range of welfare activities to local employees.
