5 Minutes with Clare from Fox + Feather



This week we had a chat with Clare from Fox + Feather to find out more about this gorgeous boutique....


How long has your business been trading on Gloucester Road?
We have been here 3 1/2 years. It's flown by!

What made you choose Gloucester Road for opening your business?
We knew that the lovely folk who shop on Gloucester Road would 'get' Fox + Feather, and there is such an incredible mix of shops and businesses here, we wanted to be a part of the buzz!
  
What have been the highlights for you since opening your business?
Highlights have included winning a UK wide industry award from Drapers, who named us Best New Business of 2013. On a personal level, forging great friendships with customers and fellow traders has been real unexpected delight.

What kinds of products/services does your business offer?
In a nutshell we sell womenswear, menswear and accessories that are unavailable in Cabot Circus or Cribbs. And we provide a level of service and style advice that a high street multiple could never replicate (we hope!). Our clothes are stylish and often vintage inspired pieces that won't break the bank. We are a guilty free treat!

Is there anything your business does that people might not be aware of? 
We can often order in specific sizes, or colour options if you can't see it on our rails. Just ask! We also have a fab website, that offers a click and collect service. So you can pop in and collect your purchases whenever is convenient for you, without the worry that we will have sold out!

Which business do you use yourself on Gloucester Road?
Oh too many to list but I would say my most regular are Urban Standard (the breakfast there is pretty much perfect), Grape & Grain and AKA Hairdressers.

What do you like most about Gloucester Road?
The amazing community spirit, the mix of crazy characters and the knowledge that what Gloucester Road is- its incredible mix of businesses- is pretty much unique and to be cherished.

If you want to know about Fox + Feather's products, their website is definitely worth a look!
