ON THE INSIDE WITH MARILYN KIRSCHNER

 

Spring/Summer 2011 Established Accessory Lines

'Gift'ed (gift lines of note) that caught my attention at Children's Club, (October 3-5, 2010).

 

 

Tickle Toes 

Little feets of luxury

Designer: Nicole Fiorina

Wholesale: $5.50 - $89

Sizes: Infant, Layette, Toddler

What's the BIG idea? Each season, Ms. Fiorina adds new prints, patterns, fabrications, and styles, to her popular gift oriented line. This time around, those new items include the use of corduroy trim (she admitted she's currently in love with corduroy), chic and cozy bathrobes in two lengths sized to fit little boys and girls from 12 months to 6 (decorated with 'Movie Star' and ballet slipper appliqués on back), and the holiday perfect 'Baby's 1st Xmas' and Baby's First Chanukah' bibs.

The Baby Bunch

Unique baby gifts

Designer: Bryony Boxer

Wholesale: $5 - $50

Sizes: Infant, layette, preemie, toddler

What's the BIG idea? It's all about baby basics which are gift ready thanks to unique and clever packaging (flowers and confections). New designs this season include the organic screen printed apple in a keepsake cardboard box (for the 'apple of your eye'); and the bibs (2- or 4-pack) which are packaged as cupcakes, available in blueberry, strawberry, or lemon.

Cute as Buttons

Luxury layette and accessories

Designer: Yata Deffigos

Wholesale: $7.50 - $26

Sizes: Newborn - 18 Months

What's the BIG idea? A line of 100% soft combed pima cotton layette, one-pieces, blankets, bibs, and accessories with great attention paid to detail. It is happily classic and timeless and not at all trendy, according to Ms. Deffigos, who offers customized personalized monogramming at no extra charge, which makes it the perfect gift. New for spring are Ruffle Bloomers, the Ruffle Take-Me-Home Sets, and the picot trimmed Footie Take-Me-Home Sets, the picot trimmed monogrammed pima cotton receiving blankets.

A Soft Idea (ASI)

A unique line of beautifully textured and trimmed products

Designer: Claudia Vargish

Wholesale: $11.50 - $39

Sizes: Boys 4 - 7, Girls 4 - 6X, Infant, Layette, Toddler

What's the BIG idea? ASI is the brainchild of Claudia Vargish, a knitwear industry veteran. So it's no surprise that the emphasis of this unapologetically classic line (where monogramming and personalization is a key element), is in beautiful textiles for home and for baby, specifically, knitwear. Standouts include the chenille blankets, hoodies, blankie burpies, and sweaters with matching hats; the two color jacquard blankets in patterns such as argyle, polka dot, hearts, sailboats, moon & stars, pin dots; the cotton knit sets and blankets in cable stitches, stripes and jacquards.
