April showers


The label April showers by Polder was created by two sisters.
Madelon and Natalie were born and grew up in the Netherlands.
In Paris they both studied archeology and art history and then both started working with fashion designers.
In January 2008 they presented their first kid's accessories collection at the playtime fair in Paris.
From the very begining hand made components wich bring a unique and handcrafted quality to the collection have been highly significant in their creation.
The collections are a mix of a Nordic spirit with a French touch of vintage.

MY FIRST POST...



And here we are my first post !

Etoile (meaning star in French) is a multi-brand shop for children from birth until 6 years old.
I opened the shop in March 2012 with all the brands I love for little ones that I couldn't find in my area of London Islington :
Bonton, April showers, Makie, Lucky boy sunday, Tamar Mogendorff, Apolline å Paris, Bakker made with love, Paume.






                                                                   
The autumn/winter Bonton collection has arrived with a new amazing
colour palette : jaune safran, beige tilleul, gris noctambule, vert anis, beige rosalie..., New prints : flowers, stripes, checks... and lots of other marvels.







About Bonton
The story begins with a family resemblance.
Thomas takes his classes at Bonpoint founded by his parents, Marie-France and Bernard Cohen. Irene his wife also joins the design office. We are in 1999.
Here they tame the world of children's fashion, mastering the style and knowledge of well done designs.
Throughout their travels they draw a new destiny, dreaming of a line dedicated naturally to children in which basic rhythms with offbeat spirits are all spiced with fun colors and prints...
Bonton was born in May 2001, between the wink of an eye and the extension of their first adventure.
Today if a child's world has grown considerably Bonton is still the only brand to offer children more than 20 outstanding colour pigments (using traditional processes) each season.
