Show Time!

Buyers flocked to New York’s Jacob Javits Center for the August edition of Children’s Club where collections ranged from the sophisticated and subdued to the glamorous and glitter-infused. While several brands cleansed their palette of Gucci maximalism with muted color palettes, lightweight linens, prairie-chic florals and peace-driven messages, others cranked up the volume with chunky glitter, reversible sequins, iridescent treatments and high-contrast patterns. In addition, the “mini me” trend raged on, including direct takedowns from the adult market like straw cross bodies, floppy sun hats, wide-leg trousers and retro remembrances such as cassette tapes, Polaroid cameras, record players and rotary telephones.
