when fred perry debuted his classic, white, knitted cotton pique polo at wimbledon 1952 no one could have imagined they were witnessing the birth of a legacy - the eight-time tennis grand slam champion was opening the doors to one of the longest-lasting sporting apparel franchises in history. fred perry has a long history, and we're proud to say the line has had a home at still life for a large part of our 25 years on johnson street in victoria.

spring 2010 sees us reintroduce fred perry's womens collection to the store, with classic pique polos, knit cardigans and newly designed dresses. on the men's side we're seeing fantastic slim fit pique polos, woven collared shirts, a selection of basic tees and an incredible millerain waxed cotton anorak coat that is ideal for the victorian winter/spring months we're in now when a waterproof waxed coat is a must. as with recent seasons, we've brought in the byron chukkah 'boot' in camel suade and navy canvas, a slip on boat shoe and the lowcut coxson canvas.
