There is a desire to stand out and differentiate this season with a real taste for colours and textures.

The fabric trends are a mixture of matte and gloss, with denim, silk, faux fur and suede strong in all areas of fashion.

We're feeling a bit nostalgic this morning... Women's fashion always look back and revisit past times, but it's never really been the case for children's fashion as much as this winter.

Straw hats have been hot on the catwalk in a number of Resort 2011 collections, including Marc Jacobs, Vena Cava, Chanel, Jason Wu and Oscar de la Renta.

The Breton Stripe

21st February, 2011

The Breton stripe is a firmly established wardrobe staple! The stripe was first transformed from uniform to fashion by the style icon and innovator Coco Chanel. Inspired by the French sailors, Chanel introduced the stripe design to her nautical collection in the 1920s. Since this sudden rise to success, the Breton stripe has become a timeless trend, sailing from season to season with no obstacles.

Featuring prominently in this years spring and summer collections, the Breton stripe strides effortlessly up and down the catwalks, claiming its well earned fashion praise.

Hot product – Sucre d'Orge

With Christmas not far off the party season is in full swing. For many of us this is a wonderful chance to catch up with friends and family, drink mulled wine and eat lots of tasty food. However, before the merriment takes place one big question often springs to mind - ‘What am I going to wear?!’ This however, need not be such a dilemma when dressing the little ones.
This week we have chosen to tell you about the 'La princesse et l'oiseau' trousers set by Sucre d’Orge. This two piece trouser and top set manages to combine comfort and practicality (both very important if you want them to last a whole evening) with a gorgeous angelic look.

Review - BoysbeCool

9th December, 2010

"In our perception of fashion and style, French is almost synonymous with chic, regardless of age. So, if you want to give your little one a touch of French chic, you need Bibaloo, the Children’s French Fashion Specialist. An exceptionally curated selection of clothing and accessories from French well-established and up-and coming designers is inspirational and difficult to find elsewhere. The store does it best to keep the prices reasonable, while offering the highest quality and unique designs. While some prices are steep, I found perfectly affordable sleek pieces, like this metropolitan casual sweater vest by MEXX ($28.27). I love the stitched “Build for Boys” statement. The dark blue Graffiti bomber ($73) is a bomb! And ado ...

Why are French Children always well dressed?

8th November, 2010

A very special article by Patricia Connell from FranceInLondon, featuring Bibaloo


“Amazed at how French women always manage to have beautifully turned out children? Here are their trade secrets”

It is no longer a secret, kids like to be cool! Gone are the days when the fashion for kids was minimalist and parents chose what they wore. Nowadays, children follow the trends: baggy, boho, grunge or preppy…They have their own fashion and they set their own rules.

I fondly remember that when my twin girls were born, I wanted them to look absolutely immaculate. The idea of them looking scruffy or not wearing coordinated clothes was something that I could never envisage. At the time, I ...

Wooden Toys

29th October, 2010

Here at Bibaloo we love all things to do with children. So we would like to introduce you to (…and hopefully woo you with) our new range of wooden toys for babies and children. As with our clothes, we have focused on bringing you some unusual pieces which combine quality and style. All the pieces are perfect for gifts or just as little extras.

Why wooden toys? With mummies in our team we understand the importance of having durable toys which are strong enough to withstand anything a child might throw at it. Wooden toys are great for this as they can hold more pressure and weight than plastic so you do not have to worry about breakages. Even when they inevitably get left on the floor and stepped on by an adult t ...

Hot product - Desigual

12th October, 2010

Here at Bibaloo we love to bring you brands from around Europe which offer something a bit different. This is why we like ‘Desigual’ so much with its confident use of bright colours, loud patterns and cool cuts. It is an all encompassing brand with the adults range being just as vibrant as the kids stuff! Their strong identity allows them to create fun and fabulous pieces.

This week, the ‘Fucsia Glamour’ skirt has caught our eye with its bright floral print and contrasting striped waistband. It would be perfect paired with tights and a plain black top for an edgy, continental look.

As we all know, elasticated waistbands are ideal for growing kids. This one is particularly good, not only for givi ...

New on Bibaloo: French Children's books

1st October, 2010

As a mother of two French little boys, I can say I know a bit about children's bedtime stories in French... and I absolutely love searching for the book, which Charlie is going to ask me every night to read and read and read again! So it better be a good one!

I could spend hours in a French book shop. Unfortunately I don't have that luxury... living now in Scotland. Which is how came the idea for me to offer for sale on Bibaloo these books, which I have carefully selected for my boys.

I am always delighted to see how many little boys and girls do learn French starting from nursery and how much their parents like to encourage them on this way (since they've very often given up them selves!). I thought ...

Hot product - Mexx

29th September, 2010

The weather is turning and autumn is defiantly creeping up on us. It is this limbo between the seasons that can cause a real clothing dilemma. This is the time when two in one products become invaluable. Here at Bibaloo we love the Mexx ‘Heaven blue bomber jacket 2 in 1’. It is the perfect mid season jacket for boys and is refreshingly different from others out there on the market.

The bright blue exterior is very soft to the touch and has bands of stitching around it which gives a cool padded look. What makes this jacket really nice are the extra little details. For instance the stitched ‘Mexx’ logo pocket on the chest and the robot patch on the arm. There is also a loop inside the interior at the back. Afte ...

Hot product - Eliane et Lena

13th September, 2010

The gorgeous ‘Bobinette’ dress is as cute as its name suggests. It is a great one to consider if you are thinking about adding something new to your little girls wardrobe for coming months.

The dress is a great all occasion, girly piece. The top section uses soft navy velour with a jersey lining. We love navy for girls, a colour not often seen on the high street. There are little red knots down the chest and red contrast stitching. The jersey cuffs are ruched at the sides. The bottom section combines cotton and a vibrant red, blue and green poppy print to create a stunning flowing pleated skirt, great for taking a twirl on the dance floor. There waist and bottom hem are elasticated giving it beautiful shape (a ...

Hot product - 3 Pommes

6th September, 2010

After browsing through our extensive new season collection, the ‘Rock Star’ shirt and tie set really caught our attention. It is made from cotton and fastens with plastic buttons. The tie is also detachable via button for safety, so no need to worry about that! The printed details give it a quirky twist with the guitars on the elbows and white contrast stitching. The black colour scheme and matching skinny tie give it a very on trend indie look. With the party season fast approaching this is a great top to pair with jeans or trousers. There is no doubt that your little boy will look ‘trop beau’ (too handsome) in this fabulous shirt!! ...

Hot product - La Queue du Chat

30th August, 2010

This week we love the 'bubble birds' blouse from La Queue du Chat (…translated as ‘The Cats Tail’). The brand uses organic materials and chemical free dyes to create natural pieces with fabulous prints featuring cute characters. This pretty tunic blouse has a square neckline which opens down the front with pearl effect buttons. This would be great layerd with a polo neck or gilet for a cosy but cool look. The simple cut of this piece allows the gorgeous bird print to shine! This top (and the rest of the collection) is perfect for those who want fair and natural products without having to sacrifice style. ...

Hot product - Absorba

23rd August, 2010

One of our favourite products this week is the ‘Chic Spirit’ navy striped sweater by Absorba. It offers a trendy nautical look and is perfect for this awkward ‘not quite Autumn’ but ‘not really Summer’ weather. It is has a really big soft hood which adds to the cool coastal look. The red stripes are bang on trend for boys this season and feature throughout(there are thin red stripes on the back). The fun feel and look of this jumpercan be summed up by the ‘Come Out To Play’ logo.

If you love this then take a look at the rest of the Absorba boys range for fun, fashionable clothes.

Bubble London

22nd June, 2010

Just a quick update from the 'Bubble' trade show in London. The day was a real success, it's always great to see what everyone is getting up to. We love shows as they give us an opportunity to schmooze with new designers and see what is up and coming in the fabulous world of children’s fashion…

Key trends seem to be reaffirming themselves in next years collections. For the girls this includes small, detailed flower prints following on from the likes of Petit Bateau’s current floral bodysuits. Ironically French style is moving towards an ‘English Rose’ theme which will see the use of more subtle pink and yellow. There will also be more use of soft turquoise and greens, which have not be seen much in past seasons ...

The Winter Season ...in Provence

28th August, 2009

A quick post from Laurence from Avignon in Provence during the visit of some of our suppliers. I left Edinbugh by 8 degC this morning to arrive in Marseille by 35 degC. What a thermal shock!! A quick look at some baby shops, some chats with some boutique owners that i know: Clayeux & Petit Bateau. The warm weather has not been a good news for them, since the winter collection doesn't sell very well as a result. How could you get a 3-year old trying an anorak in a shop by this temperature! I have to admit that the relatively disappointing UK weather has helped many of the products of the new collection to sell very quickly. Some of our products have been so successful that we even had to organise the re-order of many products (many ...

The quality, practicality and comfort of their underwear is not to be demonstrated any more. French mothers surely consider Petit Bateau bodysuits as the best of the best in terms of baby underwear.

What is this famous French Chic ?

25th November, 2008

More than selling just clothes, Bibaloo sells a lifestyle and, most importantly, this notion of 'French chic' for babies and children. Laurence, the French founder of the company, who has been living in the UK for more than 6 years, gives her view of the very famous French Chic style and how Bibaloo adapts this style for small children.

How do French women and children get that certain city French chic look that you have probably always heard about? Where does this reputation for combining elegance and subtle sophistication to create the perfect look come from? The answer is simple: original pieces that flatter, expertly put together.

French chic is about understanding that every element of the out ...

New autumn-winter collections: here they are!

31st July, 2008

Here you go... it is this time of the year again where the new collections arrive! Yes, it is not yet August and autumn/winter clothes start to flourish in shops and online stores already.
Of course, we all would like to sun bath with our little ones playing around in light outfits, but unfortunately for most of us, the ambient temperature does not necessarily allow it any more… Back-to-school is approaching and we need to think about having a serious look at our boys and girls wardrobe. Does Charlie still fit in his 2-year size navy blue jacket? Hum… I’m sure he needs a new one and I’ll better have a look before his size is gone.
Oh yes! Because believe it or not, these new collections are really exciting and popul ...

Go for organic... Go for colourful clothes!

9th July, 2008

Have you ever wondered why clothes manufacturers almost exclusively offer cream and beige-colour garments in their organic range?
Originally organic cotton remained in its natural colour in order to avoid bleaching. This is why the first organic clothes appeared in a not very homogeneous cream/beige colour. Those clothes were not necessarily nicely cut, partly due to the quality of the cotton and also because the pioneer brands in organic cotton were not always focussed on fashion trends.

But things have changed! Innovative techniques were developed to whiten cotton with peroxide and eco-friendly dye. The most famous designer brands have also started to show interest in organic cotton due to an increased publ ...

Some History of French Children fashion…

1st June, 2008

Children’s clothing are relatively recent as until the 19th century children were swaddled and dressed with clothes that were exact miniature copies of adult clothes. During the 19th century the age range concept appeared that allowed the creation and development of real children’s fashion that was originally limited to a dress (both boys and girls) as soon as they could walk. The dress reflected the social status of the father. The classics of this first children fashion are kilt, marine striped all-in-one clothes, school overall...
