Bonpoint Presents Summer 2020 Collection
(Featured image above)
The beautiful Bonpoint Summer 2020 collection has the coveted pieces of the season. It’s filled with pastel and playful colors that tugs at the heart no matter the weather. Taking inspiration from memories of childhood, every piece is cool and easy-to-wear. Under the artistic direction of Anne-Valérie Hash, the “Couture” line translates her perception of an effervescent youth, into the fabrics of tulle and lace, embroidered organza and brocades that are simply magical. Dresses are coated in iridescent cotton, and the meticulous finishing in linen voiles with sparkly Chantilly dots are quite impressive.
Bonpoint has also collaborated with esteemed hairstylist John Nollet and one of the last plumassiers and florists in the world–Maison Lemarié. They have together created elegant headpieces and hair jewelry that will add a touch of flair to any summer ensemble. There’s nothing we don’t adore in the entire Summer 2020 collection bringing a touch of beauty, energy, and in a sense hope to all who wear it. There’s definitely something for every little princess at Bonpoint.

H&M’s New Kidswear Collaboration For Nature
H&M’s kidswear collection has collaborated with Karolina Kijak-Dzikońska, a Polish illustrator and architect known for her wondrous watercolor illustrations of wildlife. Together, they have creatively made a range of clothing and accessories with Karolina’s illustrations coming to life in a dreamy and fun-loving way.
The Karolina Kijak x H&M collaboration celebrates two natural worlds–the land and the sea. Honoring the animals in her land-based illustrations is the prominence of zebras, cheetahs, giraffes, flamingos, and palm leaves, while she also pays an ode to the ocean world with vibrant fish, majestic sharks, and starfish. The collection includes dresses, denim jackets, sweatshirts, hoodies, t-shirts, trousers, skirts, and shorts made from cotton sourced in a more sustainable way, either recycled, organic or sourced through the Better Cotton Initiative. Tie-dye, ombre effects, and details such as drawstring waists, patch pockets, and contrast necklines feature alongside a color palette of olive green, ocean blue, coral pink, light grey, and yellow. These exciting pieces are both inspiring and unleash the inquisitive nature of children of all ages.
