Today, fashion brands welcome children as their customers
as much as adults. The majority of celebrated fashion designers are to some
extent involved in the production of children's clothing; from Stella
McCartney, whose collection of children's clothes for the Gap was so stylish
that it became popular with older customers, to Dolce&Gabbana, Prada, Ralph
Lauren, and Dior among many others.
Toddler Fashion
Modern fashion designers suggest getting your kid
familiar with hottest trends as early as possible: most brands can offer
stylish clothing not only for small children and adolescents, but for babies
and toddlers as well.
For instance, Christian Dior has recently launched Baby
Dior, a clothing line targeted specifically for babies and toddlers. The
collections for Baby Dior include very cute little things for little children:
soft cotton clothes with pretty ruches, tiny t-shirts and soft pants. Burberry suggests
casual wear and offers denim for every age; its children's collection features
denim dresses for girls and wide-legged comfortable denim trousers and shorts
for boys, as well as shirts and dresses with the signature Burberry print.
For future metrosexuals and dandies, who are only
learning to walk, Ralph Lauren launched its signature polo shirts and casual
plaid shirts, soft to the touch and comfortable to wear. Despite smaller size,
the apparel from the famous American brand is no less trendy, and bright colors
are sure to get your kid's attention and appeal to them. For girls, Ralph
Lauren offers dresses with playful ruches, cute sportswear and even miniature
knitted cardigans. Even Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana didn't remain
unaffected by the trend of making trendy kids' wear: D&G children's line includes
several boys' sports jackets with long sleeves and denims.
A true godsend for mums, who need to pick up clothes
for little girls under 2, a collection of pretty little dresses and suits by
Juicy Couture has many highlights, from the softest cotton and velvet, traditional
for Juicy Couture, to subtle shades of pink, perfect for little princesses.
Brightly colored dresses with pretty prints are a specialty of designer Lilly Pulitzer.
Preschool Fashion
For preschoolers, choosing trendy wear is easy: dozens
of fashion brands offer a variety of stylish clothes collections that can compete
with «grown-ups» lines. Marc Jacobs's fans who are parents to little girls will
be pleased to know about his collection for Louis Vuitton featuring stylish
designer dresses in high-quality French cotton, with bright graphic prints and playful
frills.
Girls' apparel by Ralph Lauren is also distinguished
by bright color palette which captures immediate attention with its cheerful
rainbow hues, comfortable fit and practical cut. Everything, from knitted
cardigans to summer sundresses, polo shirts and rompers will bring delight to
your little princess.
French fashion brand Chloe conveys an air of
understated elegance to its children's' wear line - simple cut, perfect fir,
traditional pleats, and classic and very functional color palette of black,
white and blue.
Clothes selection for young boys offered by Ralph
Lauren is as versatile as its counterpart for grown-ups: RL's collection for boys
includes classic T-shirts, comfortable shorts, polo shirts, jeans, summer
pants, sweaters, sport jackets and shirts.
Teen Fashion
Fashionable clothes will help your child to instantly get
that much-needed attention and boost their self-esteem - an effect many
designers are aware of. Trendy dresses for 10-14 year old girls suitable for
school and holiday wear can be found in children's collections by Marc Jacobs,
Ralph Lauren, Juicy Couture, and Burberry.
Kenzo offers clothing that is upscale, colorful and
their outfits are comfortable and can be worn every day. Check out their
Russian inspired collection with sweaters, knit hats, boots and other colorful,
comfortable garments. This is an expensive line, with dresses over $200.00 but
you can find good deals on clearance items at many retailers online.
If going the high end, upscale route doesn't fit your
budget, not many can manage a wardrobe of high-end cloths, don't despair. Take
a look at some of the shows your kids are watching and you'll get the idea of
what's new and trendy so you can shop away.
