ON THE INSIDE WITH TINA BARRY

 

Spring/Summer 2011: Established Lines - Tutus/Novelty, Denim

 

TUTUS/NOVELTY:

 

KAIYA EVE

Homebase: Los Angeles, CA

DESIGNER: Kandi Lightner

Sizes: 3 months to 12 years; Wholesale prices: $15-$40

One of the first to get the tutu craze rolling, Lightner keeps adding more fun pieces to her popular collection.

Outstanding piece: The Ruffle Top and Pettiskirt looks like one fabulous tutu dress, but it's more versatile than that. Camp up a pair of jeans with the top; go casual by combining a T-shirt with the skirt. Either way, the pieces make great mixers.

OOH! LA LA COUTURE

Homebase: Port Jefferson, NY

DESIGNERS: Anne Dugourd and Jennifer Rotunno

Sizes: NB to 14 years; Wholesale prices: $38-$40

Heidi Klum's daughter Leni loves Ooh! La La Couture. So does Alanna Palumbo of the recently released movie "Standing Ovation." The sparkly, pattern driven tutus just say "star"!

Outstanding pieces: Two new pieces that'll turn any mortal into a celebrity.

DENIM:

 

PINC PREMIUM

Homebase: New York, NY

DESIGNER: Arianne Fink

Sizes: 7 to 16 years; Wholesale prices: $12-$25

This purveyor of chic jean separates offers an alternative to the Fainting Couch: knit denim.

Outstanding pieces: Skinny denim jeans and jackets can feel like a corset. Knit denim, like the sexy pieces on the right, looks like the real thing, but lets the wearer breath.
