When we think of fashion and its origins we are automatically drawn to the French and their capital – Paris. Their flair for whipping together an outfit and making it look altogether uncomplicated, yet smart, is something they seem to achieve effortlessly.
A stunning example of French style is girls-wear label Rose Desbois – www.rosedesbois.fr – (pronounced Roz day-BWAH) which creates outfits for girls from newborn up to 10 years from a range of luxury materials that are the embodiment of Parisian Chic.
Rose Desbois opened their first boutique in Paris XVlle near Monveau Park, France in December 2008, and the label is already receiving rave reviews with mentions in fashion bible French Vogue and women’s magazine Marie Claire (France).
The label’s designer Chrystelle Desbois is a graduate of ESMOD‐Paris (the first in the International fashion university group). The materials Chrystelle uses to construct her garments are sourced largely from France or Italy. Fabrics include velvet and cashmere, are used and many of the items are embroidered or knitted by hand. All pieces are manufactured in France.
The new Kids Collection Autumn‐Winter 2009/10 features caramel coloured wools, chocolate and mocha velvet and coffee‐coloured flannel. I found myself in awe at their craftsmanship and panache (and also at their prices, which start at a low 36 Euros).
Stocked in a small number of high-end stores in London, New York, Italy and Japan, as well as its own fashion house in Paris, Rose Debois is yet to take the Australian market, but will be available online at the new virtual store opening soon. If you can’t wait, you can contact the store directly via email at info.rosedesbois@orange.fr – Rose Desbois happily ship to Australia and beyond.
