"For our second independent Innovation Stories collection for kids, we wanted to create a dreamy and sparkly collection. For this collection we are using 100% recycled-content embellishments helping us reach our goal of sustainably sourced materials by 2030. We hope this fantastical capsule of versatile pieces will spark conversations about circularity and inspire the next generation to dream,”

KEY PIECES
The enchantment of glittering fashion meets the magic of innovation, with key looks spanning ephemeral dresses and edge-inflected streetwear in a dreamy palette of sandy pinks and pale blues. A pearl-embellished dusty-yellow dress with ruffle-trim panels, as well as a rhinestone- and pearl-trimmed cornflower-blue dress, will win young romantic hearts. A crochet two-piece, dripping in pearls, will delight beach lovers. And if she’s after something tougher? Pearl-speckled oversized denim and astrology-print tops offer an edge that’s extended towards accessories, where pearl-studded slides, astrology-charm necklaces and a beaded mini bag add off-beat energy to girlish ensembles.  

MORE SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
Educational and enchanting in equal measure, key innovations include 100% recycled-content rhinestones and pearls made from recycled plastic display shelves and boxes. Meanwhile denim pieces are made from a blend of organic cotton and pre-consumer waste cotton, while several dresses, skirts and blouses are made from recycled textile-to-textile polyester. Jewellery makes use of recycled brass and recycled polyester, sunglasses are made from recycled plastic resin, and the mini bag comprises recycled polyester.
