And because it’s Oscar de la Renta—a name synonymous with meticulous quality—the same careful attention to detail that adults enjoy is applied to these pieces as well, with each garment hand-sewn by artisans in Portugal. These hemlines and elbow patches can last through every tumble that being a kid might bring. This amazing collection will be available beginning in mid-July through the fashion house’s website, listed below. From regal wool blazers to elegant velvet dresses, every young dandy and demoiselle is sure to feel spiffy and sophisticated thanks to this season of childrenswear, which still manages to retain the essence of what makes childhood so magical: fun. u For more information, visit www.oscardelarenta.com.
