Editor’s Letter

Sally Morris Editor-in-chief

April 2023

PRIMARK: LITTLE DUCKLING 2 PACK ROMPER- £7.50

Welcome to Swanky Kids Magazine Fashion Edition April 2024 Issue 9!

This month, we delve into the vibrant spring season. Springtime, a season filled with renewal, growth, and vibrancy, is a period that impeccably reflects in the numerous trends for kids’ fashion during this time. It is a time of the year when nature reawakens, and this rebirth of life is mirrored in the colours and styles seen in children’s M&S: MINI clothing. The colour palette for this season is typically light and bright, drawing profound inspiration from the enchanting blooming ME POLO 2-16 YEARS flora and the inviting, clear skies of spring. Pastels are a staple of - £14 this season’s fashion, with delightful shades of mint green, soothing baby blue, and soft, inviting pink dominating the fashion scene.

MONSOON: BABY FLORAL JERSEY AND LEGGINGS SET - £24

M&S: DENIM EMBROIDERED JACKET - £24

When it comes to the types of garments appropriate for this season, light layers are the key. The weather in spring can prove to be quite unpredictable, with temperatures experiencing significant fluctuations from the coolness of the morning to the warmer afternoons. Layering is a clever dressing strategy that allows for adaptability to these temperature changes. A light cardigan or a stylish denim jacket is a versatile piece that can easily be thrown over a simple t-shirt or a playful dress, providing not just warmth but also an added layer of style.

Floral prints, a design that has become synonymous with the season of spring, continue to feature prominently. This season, however, designers are reinterpreting this classic print in a more abstract and modern way. Instead of the traditional rose or daisy prints that have been a mainstay in spring collections, we are observing a trend towards brushstroke flowers and oversized tropical prints, adding a touch of modernity and freshness to the classic floral design.

Another significant trend in the springtime kids fashion sphere is the incorporation of sustainable materials into clothing. As the world becomes more environmentally-conscious, it is heartening to see that more and more brands are following suit by using organic cotton, bamboo, and recycled materials in their clothing.

This not only makes the clothes more eco-friendly but also adds an additional selling point for the parents who are increasingly looking for sustainable options.

To wrap up, the essence of springtime kids fashion lies in the perfect blend of style and practicality. Next month, we will be back for another spring-filled issue, as we close out the season’s trends in time for summer. We look forward to seeing you there!
