Dion Lee, Ellery and Toni Maticevski are some of the high-profile names caught up in the collapse of online designer platform Jasu.com.

Documents obtained by ragtrader.com.au have confirmed that the site folded owing unsecured creditors a total of $490,301.33, with the largest amount ($300,000) owed to a private creditor by the name of Wenfei Yang.

As first reported on ragtrader.com.au, the company ceased trading on December 16, 2013.

Iconic designers Toni Maticevski and Dion Lee were among the big names caught up in the wreckage, owed $5176.73 and $3874.29 respectively.

Cult labels such as Ellery ($545.99), Christopher Esber ($704.10), Bec & Bridge ($1,143.30), Aurelio Costarella ($1,126.63), Michael Lo Sordo ($2062.90), Suboo ($1970.56) and Romance Was Born were also burned.

International Management Group (IMG), responsible for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia was the second largest creditor, owed $45,125. Jasu.com made history this year when it partnered with Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Australia to live stream the event.

Other significant creditors include Jesse O'Brian ($16,746), Bespokeseo ($9,350) and Dixon Kestles & Co ($5,500).

Rounding out the list of unsecured creditors left in the lurch for significant amounts are: Latep Legal ($3,300), Giant Management ($2,492.48), Deadly Ponies ($2157.90), Steele ($1822.44), and Faddoul ($1538.40).

The Australian Taxation Department has also claimed a debt of $39,824.82 for services rendered from its Insolvency Team.

Creditors lucky enough to get out relatively unscathed included: Josh Goot ($105.05), Alpha 60 ($235.45), Cylk ($243.72), Kuwaii ($74.94), Some Agency ($72.36), and Tom Gunn ($90.90).

Employees from the failed venture have claimed $69,494.24 collectively, for lost wages and compensation for holiday pay, redundancy pay and superannuation.
