Mini wardrobe in style: Iconic kidswear brands move between tradition and innovation, classicism and contemporaneity.
The wonderful world of big fashion brands shows itself in all its kaleidoscopic beauty, with luxury references and Mini-Me looks. Every edition, the Pitti Bimbo fair, one of the most important kidswear events of the world, brings together the top fashion collections that tell the universal language of quality and style across every age and context.
Pitti Immagine Bimbo (“bimbo” is Italian for “baby”) is among the most long-lived of Pitti Immagine fairs, with more than 70 editions. Twice a year in Florence, at the Fortezza da Basso, the event presents fashion collections from 0–14 years.
Global and established childrenswear brands come together with a selection of outfits that parents love and teach children to dress with style, refinement and attention to detail, from the cradle to high school, from the formal dress to the natural fiber onesie.
Fashion for kids: Fall Winter 2021- 2022 Collections
Pan con chocolate
The Spanish brand Pan con chocolate creates outfits for a colors-filled winter. For girls, bright powder pink down jackets, little dresses with botanical prints, and striped blouses for an ironic take on bon-ton. Sporty-chic pieces for the boys: velvet trousers and parkas with a fur-trimmed hood. While the baby line focuses on elegance with more subtle shades.
Add Junior
Founded in 1999, the brand aimed at revolutionizing the down jacket vision: no longer a simple functional outerwear piece but a distinctive wardrobe element, even in its junior variant. The result is a collection of warm, comfortable, super-light jackets with a refined design to satisfy every look’s need, from minimalistic to glamor, and developing a versatile elegance concept.

Herno 2021 collections
The Made in Italy excellence has been synonymous with urban outerwear for 70 years. Herno offers a vast collection for 2-14 years: from the Jacquard Monogram nylon bomber jacket to the new coat in plush wool effect fabric. From the A- shape parka to the mirror-effect shiny nylon down jacket. There is no shortage of Laminar models in Gore-Tex Infinium and iridescent camouflage nylon, windproof and rainproof.
Dondup Kids
Maxi coats, elegant jumpsuits, unexpected denim mini dresses. The new Dondup Kids collection’s key pieces seem
borrowed from an older sister’s wardrobe: effortless elegance and lots of freedom for combinations. For boys, hooded sweatshirts and the timeless denim shirt. The brand, founded in 1999 thanks to the Berloni family’s idea, confirms its solid sustainable vocation.
Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini kids
British inspirations feature in the Fall Winter 2021-2022 collection by Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini Kids. The young designer presents a series of girls’ outfits in which tartan becomes the lowest common denominator: from mini skirts to dungarees, from inlays on sweatshirts to fluffy chiffon dresses, combined with denim or white blouses full of ruffles.

Le Petit Coco
Designed by Consuelo Pinoca and produced by Gimel, the new collection of Le petit coco offers a range of proposals for holidays as well as for park runs. Little satin dresses and floral blouses for girls. Soft tracksuits and comfortable cardigans for boys. The guiding color of the season is ocher yellow, which matches the most romantic of blues.
Elisabetta Franchi
The FW21-22 collection with which Elisabetta Franchi mixes romantic skirts with georgette blouses and jersey trousers, bon-ton dresses and all-over check chain prints, puffed sleeves, and bows is called “La mia Bambina.” The color palette confirms black, ivory and butter as the maison’s musts. New shades such as ruby, pearl gray, and mauve stand out.

Accents, inlays, and embroidery define a new code of elegance with an international and timeless taste.

Always in the name of excellence.
La Martina
Leader of upper casual, La Martina continues its family tradition with a kidswear collection that combines elegance, a sense of luxury, and sporty details.
