The sportswear to streetwear designer brand Fred Perry has evolved over time whilst maintaining its original styling and has fitted well into the British youth subculture. Originally designed for sports wear on the tennis pitch by the notable tennis play Frederick Perry and Australian footballer Tibby Wegner, the brand became quickly popular after featuring during Wimbledon in 1952.
