Day 1 The Rendez-Vous Kids Digital Fashion Week Rundown
Tia Cibani Kids, Loud Apparel, Young Soles and new kid on the block Lmn3 gave us a sneak peek of their SS21 collections on the launch day of The Rendez-Vous Kids Digital Fashion Week August edition. The day was jam packed full of insider views, alla prima teasers for @gambrell_ insta live on Tuesday at 8pm UK plus videos, interviews, paper doll looks with the finale to the day being a panel zoom with trend forecaster WGSN. Let’s just recap on our four featured brands and their digital SS21 sneak peeks.
Tia Cibani Kids SS21 ‘Nur’
NUR is a common Arabic name meaning LIGHT. Tia looks toward the light as inspiration for her Spring Summer 2021 collection. The collection was developed under difficult circumstances. At times Tia felt frivolous to think of fabrics, colours, patterns and fashion when the world around us seemed to be in such despair over the pandemic, and the world’s social and political struggles – but it was the light that kept nudging and encouraging her to stay focused.
To keep living, keep growing, keep our humanity, keep our passions, keep our creativity, keep our strength and keep loving one another. More powerfully than words can express, our children contribute hope and inspiration to those ends. As parents and grandparents, as close friends and family, all of us understand. For Tia the simple act of dressing her children in the morning, or on a special occasion, or in the evening before dinner becomes an evocation of optimism and love.
Tia’s SS21 collection is available for wholesale orders at The Playtime B2B Market place now!
