Fred Segal

Fred Segal

"Fred Segal" is a Los Angeles, California based clothing retailer that has become synonymous with hip, trendsetting, and essential fashion.

Its founder, Fred Segal, is a successful entrepreneur whose personal and professional history mirrors the bold emergence of Los Angeles as a world capital over the last four decades.

There are currently two Fred Segal stores: one in Hollywood (on Melrose Avenue) and the other in Santa Monica. In 1976, the Hollywood location was purchased by Ron Herman, who still operates it under the Fred Segal brand. The Santa Monica store is still owned by the Segal family, one of whom, Nina Segal, has opened her own online jewelry store [http://www.ninasegal.com/ Nina Segal Jewelry] .
