freddy&ma...& kait!

Kaitbw Say hello to the newest member of the freddy&ma team! Kait comes to us all the way from Williamsburg (that's Brooklyn, not colonial). She wears many hats here at freddy&ma including, but not limited to, graphic designer, factory visitor, production person, mailroom manager, and dog sitter. She's even done some light modeling. So sign onto meebo sometime and give Kait a big virtual hug!

F&M intern: marie

Ag9_copy Hi, my name is Marie and I'm currently a sophomore at FIT. I'm studying Fashion Merchandising Management as well as International Trade and Marketing. I've lived all over the place so I don't have a "hometown"- I consider wherever my family and friends are to be "home." I adore the arts, traveling, manicures, dresses and handbags, caramel macchiatos, lazy weekends, watching football, beaches, and boys with accents (bonus if they play the drum). I'm so excited to intern at Freddy&Ma; it's such a laid-back, enjoyable place to be and I believe it'll contribute in helping me figure out what I want to do with my future.

F&M Intern: danielle

Dandavi_2 Hi, I'm Danielle.  I go to FIT and study Fashion Merchandising Management.  I'm a Native New Yorker, born and raised in Queens, New York.  I don't think I'll ever leave this city for another one...except maybe Paris or Milan.  I love reading magazines for celebrity gossip, fashion trends, and inspiration.  My family and friends mean the world to me.  I'm addicted to coffee, the internet, and Grey's Anatomy.  I work at Abercrombie & Fitch and intern with Glamour magazine and Freddy&Ma.  I hope to gain a lot of knowledge of the industry interning at Freddy&Ma, as it's a very hands-on internship, that even includes an adorable little dog, named Rocco.

does size matter?

Fmbagscale_1We know how difficult it can be to look at an image of our bags and accurately  access the real size of the bag. We also understand  that dimensions alone are tough to interpret.  For extra help in selecting your Freddy&Ma bag, you can download our "BAG SCALE" which gives a side by side comparison of our styles relative to one another and an average sized woman.
