Bobo Choses: A Folk Song

Bobo Choses: A Folk Song

Like many, I find the Winter months after Christmas hard, so the arrival of our SS24 collections is just the lift we all need to banish those Winter blues. First up, the mighty Bobo Choses, injecting a much needed splash of colour and a whole heap of sunshine into an otherwise grey day.

“A Folk Song” launches here at Junior Edition next week and we are so excited to share some of our personal highlights from the collection with you. A tribute to folkloric traditions, the collection is inspired by folk festivals where children and adults gather in the streets among musicians, storytellers, dancers and creatures.

Bobo Choses Forever Now

Bobo Choses Forever Now

Bobo Choses’ new AW22 collection Forever Now is all about time. What is time? Who is it? What does it want? Whilst it might prove to be a tricky thing for adults to get to grips with this is definitely not the case for children who have their own way of relating to it. For them, time is flexible, malleable, friendly, and a constant present.

 

1+ In The Family: Soft and Comfortable Baby Clothing

1+ In The Family: Soft and Comfortable Baby Clothing

1+ In The Family first launched back in the Autumn of 2012 and was created by Gemma Mases, an experienced designer who is mum to three children herself and, by her admission, something of a children's fashion enthusiast!

The brand launch coincided at with the birth of the designer's niece, little baby Bruna and, as Gemma recounts, it is her sisters brave decision to start a family as a single mother that encouraged her to undertake a project that she had been dreaming for so long, and so 1+ In The Family was also born.

Talking Bobo!

Talking Bobo!

Talking Bobo is a way of being. Non-sensical to adults but a very real and natural way of being for children, where imaginations run wild and reality is turned on its head.

The collection itself is born out of a series of original stories and poems (also available to buy) that eventually come to life in the form of prints and shapes you find in every range from the magical universe of Bobo Choses.

Bebe Organic : Beautiful and Unique

Bebe Organic : Beautiful and Unique

We were thrilled to welcome Bebe Organic to Junior Edition this year, such a beautiful brand that fits so perfectly with our ethos.

Bebe Organic was founded back in 2014 by mother of two and MA graduate of London College of Fashion, Birgit Kadak whose desire to create a range of original, organic childrenwear was driven by the struggle to find suitable clothing for her first-born child who had been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis, an extremely sensitive skin condition.

Liilu: Bloom

Liilu: Bloom

Liilu creates timeless, sustainable clothing that is both minimalistic in design and classic in style. Sibylle Pal is the German designer and mother of two at the heart of this brand and her collections are very much rooted in memories from her own childhood and influenced by years of travel.

The collection itself is manufactured in Portugal, made entirely from 100% organic cotton making it wonderfully kind to the most sensitive of skins. Every Liilu piece has gone through a special washing technique that gives the garment a unique softness and signature scent.

Bobo Choses: For President

Mama Still Got It!

Mama Still Got It!

I think for so many of us, dressing our kids in gorgeous clothes give us great pleasure. Equally, I think that for some (certainly me) the investment both emotionally and...
