Following in the footsteps of Diane Furstenburg and Stella McCartney, Kate and Jack Spade are set to debut a special collaboration with Gap Kids. This marks Kate Spade New York and Jack Spade’s first foray into children’s wear as well as the first time the Kate Spade & Company brands have partnered together. Set to hit stores on October 30th for just 2 weeks, the collection includes fun, bold prints and cute sophisticated looks for little fashionistas!
Based on the theme of ‘a brother and sister imagining their way through a magical journey to grandmother’s house during the holiday season’, Kate and Jack each created looks that are perfect for kids of all ages.
For girls there are striped tights, a collection of long sleeve shirt that say “Here Comes Trouble”, “Skirt The Rules”, “Pretty Sneaky”, and “Are We There Yet?”, and bow-printed dresses, pants, and tops. To complete the look Kate has also created sparkly flats, little satchels, mittens, hats and scarves.
Boys get gingham, camo and googly-eyed button-ups.
