Style Network (Australia)

For the defunct American television channel formerly known as "Style Network" that this channel was derived from, see Esquire Network.

Style Network (known on air as Style) was an Australian pay television channel that owned by Universal Networks International. It was a domestic version of the American Style Network (which it outlasted by six years after that network was converted to the short-lived men's interest Esquire Network), and much like its American counterpart it featured fashion, design, and programming for women.^[1]
