TREND SPOTTING.....Eastern influences and Brady Flair
Boutique
children's clothing designers are taking their influences from Asia and the 60's and 70's lifestyle (think Brady) to lead the trend for the hottest
looks for spring and summer 2010; and the signs of a collective
human optimism for a better year are reflective with bright bold colors and patterns leading the way.
Black and white remain popular pallets this year carrying over from a more conservative approach to dressing that many families adopted due to the economic uneasiness of the past years; however, we're seeing vibrant punches of color striking out for spring and summer 2010 reflecting, what this individual believes is a collective human optimism that people are beginning to feel better about the state of the economy. This spring prints are colorful, fun and whimsical. Girl's dresses and skirts flow, perfect for childhood frolic and play in colors of sunshine yellow, grass green and lilac lavender. Toward summer we see an emergence of ocean blues and crisp whites in organic cottons and linens with classic nautical and sea life themes.
Style savvy parents can expect to find Asian inspirations from kimono style tops and dresses for little girl's to vibrant prints inspired by anime art on boy's and girl's clothing. 1960's and 70's inspirations continue to remain strong as designers marry bold colors and classic lines to create a look that is both modern and timeless.
Following is a sneak peak at a few of your favorite children's boutique designer lines. Included are spring fashions from Alejandra Kearl, Captain Monkey Boy and Right Bank Babies. Each are fresh, vibrant and full of life!
