Franzi is our Big Oobi who hails from Germany. She loves the outdoors and camping and chocolate (godbless!).
Franzi works with Ben in the warehouse (you'll meet Ben soon) and also helps out at our sales, does the photographs for our look-books, keeps us entertained with her Ger-lish (German/English) and is always, always late on Monday morning!

My all-time favourite Ooobi piece is definitely the new British Tweed Jacket, also the Navy Military Jacket is pretty cool, too. Both have this urban chic to it. You can't be dressed wrong with them.
I think my favourite part of the daily routine is the tea time. It's a welcoming break, a time for a little chit chat and a taste of Bek's famous baking creations. I love your chocolate brownies, Bek!
My favourite season with Oobi is the winter. Coming from central Europe I always like the fashion of winter more. It gives you so many opportunities, to layer and accessorise. I just love it and so does Oobi.
I got my nice in-law (Ava, then 2 years) for X-mas a little Oobi outfit. She saw it and loved it! Problem was she got earlier a little fairy dress from her nan and was wearing it. Very cute, got her the center of attention, but when she got the Oobi Apple Tennis Skirt with matching tee, hat and socks she stripped down in front of everybody and refused to wear anything else the whole day. I felt a bit guilty, because her nan bought her the fairy dress as something special. But then she added the fairy wings as a personal touch, what made everybody laugh. It was so cute.
Franzi, I love the British tweed jacket and military jacket too - now I wish my son was younger so he could fit into those cool jackets! As for winter, it feels like winter 9 months of the year in Melbourne. Many of my daughter's dresses from the Oobi summer range are worn layered when the weather gets chilly.
