Fred Perry has always been associated
with fashion and style hi I’m Veronica
watchmojo.com and today we’re learning
more about the brand that proudly wears
the laurel wreath the origins of the
laurel wreaths
derived naturally from Fred Perry
sporting pedigree as a three-time
Wimbledon winner as well as a Davis Cup
champion the first logo he actually
considered was the pipe being a pipe
smoker but after consulting with his
business partner they landed on the
laurel wreath thankfully with honors
excellent
and really honors his achievement you
really mentioned he was a tennis
champion but can you tell us more about
the man Fred Perry he was born over a
hundred years ago in Manchester to
working-class parents he actually
started his career in table tennis he
became a world champion by the age of 19
he then retired and focused on tennis
and progress was quite rapid as in 1933
he helped Britain win the Davis Cup
which hadn’t been done in over 21 years
regarding his personal life he was quite
the ladies man he was very charismatic
and charming the women loved his dark
looks and men really admired his
athleticism he really enjoyed life and
later on emigrated to California where
he dated a string of celebrities
including Jean Harlow how would you
describe the fashion of Fred Perry it is
definitely a classic pool with an edge
as well as functional and fashionable
and most importantly timeless and now

yeah two different looks one for men and
one for women the first look is very
classic and the second look is something
that you might want to wear to a concert

two looks which are classic looks we
have Lawrence here and Mahalo Lawrence

which he’s paired up with our slim fit
flat front short we also have the Fred
Perry Kingston twill shoe which is in a
canvas and then we’ve also got a nice
barrel bag here which is from our Laurel

daytime casual look then on Mahalo we
have again the classic original slim fit
polo which is really cute paired up with
the pair of skinny jeans she is also
wearing the canvas Fred Perry running
shoes and then we’ve thrown on a nice
tartan plaid side bag so for our second
