Midnight Madness … make a Mad Dash!...

It’s that time of year again … Midnight Madness takes place at our 153 East 70th Street location Thursday March 11th 10.30am to Midnight. For those of you in the know, our now infamous Midnight Madness sale has become somewhat of a “must do event ” with a now cult-like following! The Roberta Freymann Midnight Madness sale first took place in 2004 and continues to be one of my favourite calendar events. Unlike many Sales, we pride ourselves on making the event fun .. a shopping experience not to be missed!   This year our theme is Carnival so get ready to samba...

  Get Spring/Summer 2010 off to a vibrant kick start with larger than life prints …. Stripes, Florals and Ikats all add more than a dash of much needed colour to the Roberta Freymann Spring/Summer collections.        We started the season off with classic stripes, look out for our new interpretations hitting down in stores this week (Biba Dress, Lio Shirt, Kath Kurta), followed by the evergreen ditsy florals that can be found on new silhouettes for the season at our Roberta Roller Rabbit locations (Arles Shirt).

Trend spotting … khaki and the classic...

Fashion would not be fashion without opposing trends, and what could be more different from the fun and glamour of the holiday season than a dose of utility chic for Spring 2010!

Khaki, olive green and white make a refreshing way to usher in spring. Denim, Khaki (our color of the month) and the classic shirt have been seen all over the catwalks for Spring 2010.This season at Roberta Freymann expect to see earthy...

In the spirit of all things valentines, our final destination this trip is Jaipur, the Pink City. The candy-floss-bright turbans blaze a trail through brilliant bargain-filled bazaars, and fluttering saris catch the eye like butterflies. Jaipur is our final stop mainly due to the amazing crafts and fabrics that can be picked up here. The handicrafts of Jaipur are well-known throughout the world for their distinctive quality and exclusive variety, a perfect match to Roberta Freymann & Roberta Roller Rabbit! Due to this fact, Jaipur is also recognized as the crafts...

After a whirlwind trip to Delhi, we arrived in Mumbai. Formerly known as Bombay, Mumbai is the largest city in India and the capital of Maharashtra state. Mumbai’s nature as the most eclectic and cosmopolitan Indian city is symbolized in the presence of Bollywood all around. With an inebriating mix of all that India has to offer, it is it’s vogue centre of fashion and a designers delight! Only once the initial shock of Mumbai’s chaos subsides, can you start to appreciate the city’s allure: a wealth of Art Deco buildings; relics; temples; warrens of...
