Just last Saturday, the Caperberry team jumped on the Eurostar and headed to sunny Paris. Or more specifically, Parc Floral de Paris, for the 26th edition of Playtime Paris.
This buzzy hive was home for the weekend to 500 beautiful (and exquisitely curated) brands from around the globe. From the NEW NOW space, spotlighting first time exhibitors to the Crea.tif space where twelve talented graphic and textile designers set up easels of their latest designs… There were conferences, creative workshops, even the renowned artist, Chris Gambrell, working on a ‘live’ mural.
In search of new season nuggets, creative flair and innovation, all within the childrens clothing and homeware slice of life, we thought we’d share a few favourites that hit the spot:
New Kids In The Hood
Using pre-loved fabrics, NKITH creates new and timeless kids clothes, with the coolest of hats being their signature piece. Based in Germany, this sustainable label has got the fun factor down to a tee.
