Just an idea

Saffron Craig - Tuesday, March 17, 2009
We went to the Bondi Markets on the weekend saw some talented designers. Lovely hand drawn T-shirts, Amy Gunson’s softies and lovely children’s wear labels.
In the back of my mind I am aiming to have a children’s wear story ready for summer 2009 so I am defining my own style, my own feel. At markets there is a tendency to vibrant colours and an individual feel, which is very different to the chain stores. The strappy dress, which is everywhere, can be worn with a t-shirt I suppose for sun protection. However I am challenging myself to a dress with a sleeve. The idea is a small collection of five or six pieces after the great response to my girl’s dress that I made for this summer.
Yes it is just an idea but that is my fun and well, it inspires me.

I agree a dress with a sleeve is a must. My youngest has red hair and fair skin and I would never send her out in a strappy dress. Also they usually need to be covered at pre-school/child care so I think sleeves are a goer.
