Marc Jacobs is becoming a household name for his growing celebrity as Creative Director for Louis Vuitton and head designer for his eponymous brand. As well as designing upmarket fashion collections for women and men, his company also designs a childrenswear range called Little Marc Jacobs that he was inspired to develop by friends and colleagues with children. The range reflects many of the same influences as the grown up collections and have a relaxed comfort that is important for kids clothes, and is available in sizes 2-8 years.
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Jacobs declared his approach to fashion as “straightforward and anti-intellectual…I think that children are very lucky because they don’t have any rules. With children it’s as simple as ‘yuk’ or ‘yay’ and they are not frightened to ask a million questions. I think that it’s nice to retain that childish naivety.”
The Little Marc Jacobs collection for Spring/Summer 2010 that will be heading into Northern Hemisphere stores soon, carries a lot of the same influences as the grown up Ready to Wear collections including big prints and bright colours, with toned down, more casual and relaxed shapes for kids. I love the teales, coral, sky blue and yolk yellow with some denim and florals thrown into the mix.
A lot of these pieces may be more than you would pay for own clothes, but the styling, colours and shapes can still provide a little inspiration.
The Marc Jacobs childrenswear range is sold in Little Marc Jacobs flagship stores in Europe and the USA. Purchase online from Little Fashion Gallery, Alex and Alexa, Children Salon and Milkshop to name a few.
