Jakeandmaya Confirmed for Bubble London


I am so excited ! Bubble London confirmed our space for their next show this morning.
For those that are not familiar with Bubble, it is one of the most popular children's trade-shows in UK, attracting buyers from all-around the world.
We were supposed to take part in last years show but due to lack of time (with trying to set up Monsters and Munchkins and no nanny etc.) I decided to delay it.

However, I did manage to get some pieces made for Monsters and Munchkins' store last season, where the responds have been great. So again, I will make a small capsule collection exclusively for Monsters and Munchkins this season, which consists of a couple of A-line dresses for the girls, a suit for the boys as well as some basics. This is currently under production, so we should get it in-store in the next couple of weeks.

The philosophy behind Jakeandmaya is to create children's wear that is stylish but yet comfortable. The terms that we often use to describe our "style" is traditional with a contemporary twist. We try to make children's clothing that is fun, but without making it too typically childish (ie. princesses, trains etc.). We use prints and embroidery inspired by traditional children's motifs to bring the garments to life and we use unusual colour combinations to make it unique.

You will see, you will love it (I hope).

Ps. US shows are still being confirmed at the moment but I will keep you posted.
