Fred Bare's lovely Creative Director Fi shares her thoughts on the unique and wonderful Redfern area where the Fred HQ is based...
"When we first came to Darlington, or is it Chippendale...or Redfern?... we were lucky enough to be on the corner of all 3!!!!
I have very fond memories of our gorgeous neighbour greeting me at the door of our warehouse with home made chocolate chip cookies, a favourite of mine... She gave me a run down on the neighbourhood and wished us well with our new business.
That was 21 years ago.
We live in the “Paris end of Abercrombie St”...... as some like to call it.
We just call it home!
I love the mixture of creative and courageous people and it is a place where kids have a voice.

'The Fern was were it all started for FB; We have had so much fun here and made so many friends in the hood...... I would like to share some of the things we love about the 'Fern...
Not forgetting Bobby’s coffee and chocolate freckles and CafĂ© Tripod's home made Pumpkin soup and fruit muffins...yum yum!"
It is great to see our little village bloom.

Look out for our next blog post on the gorgeous galleries, street fashion and little cafes that make the Chippendale area.
