EDITOR'S LETTER BY FOUNDER MARIE SOUDRÉ-RICHARD
Let me tell you a story… This story is an absurd tale with plenty of twists and turns that takes place in a gallery, THE Gallery, our new premises. This real anchor is an important step for our development and progression. We would be delighted to see you in our new loft gallery in the first arrondissement, right in the centre of Paris. Our premises are devoted to design; you can see the contemporary and vintage furniture ranges, games and the famous LFG Library with both English and French books. Our Little Denim Gallery will also be displayed. The LFG spirit has been brought to life in an enjoyable Photo : Carl-Oskar Linné space where you are always welcome. The clothing ranges won’t be displayed but there is always the option to make your selection before or during your visit to The Gallery. Your order will then be prepared whilst you are having a look around. The Gallery is entirely at your service, this has always been our goal from the very beginning with both our clients and our suppliers. We have therefore developed some exclusive products with certain brands such as Finger in the Nose. This season the punk trend is key and Finger in the Nose have it covered. Bleached jeans are very on-trend, be sure to check out our red version, we’re sure you’re going to love them! Lili & The Funky Boys is another exclusive LFG development. We are in huge admiration of the baby clothing brand, and they have most definitely spoilt us this season with a refined collection that has a brilliant colour palette. We’ve also tried to enlarge the size selection at both ends of the spectrum (as the brand usually stops at age 2); there’s a gorgeous newborn outfit made from baby alpaca wool which is incredibly soft. We’ve also created an outfit in age 4 which incorporates Lili’s personality and is incredibly easy to wear. The brand’s creator Esther Loonen also talks to us about her brand, you can read about it in our new section LFG Meets… This season the well-known brands are alongside the younger ones; we hope you enjoy our new brands such as Loppa, Adri and Patachou Tokyo. LFG’s mission has not changed, we want to show you new brands that are unique, a breath of fresh air and who we’re sure you’ll enjoy discovering. In this volume, the Gallery is all about constructing and evolving…being fantastic, welcoming and sparkling! I’ll leave you in its capable hands. Marie
INTRODUCTION BY Clara Dayet The Little Gallery of Fashion is now a reality. It’s real and palpable and its unusual architecture inspires us. During a photo shoot, the gallery becomes the setting as its beauty comes to life. Depending on the angle the photographer takes the photo from and the way the models move, the Gallery transforms itself and soon becomes the principal character of a curious story. The gallery has a construction feel to it which comes mainly from the metallic grey beams, which of course remind us of the Eiffel Tour. The Gallery's construction feel was our main inspiration for this third edition. The structure, theme and style of the photos, originated from this construction feel. The trends of this winter, which I’ve put into five very distinctive themes which have created the key characters of the story. Set in a Lewis Carroll type world that’s deliberately absurd, the characters are looking for a strange insect. The Gallery gets bigger, longer and it starts to quiver. It comes to life and brings to life some very curious characters who appear and disappear as they wish. The rabbit is a Check and Pere Ubu, a far-too-chatty cat. Will you find the Centi-Toes?

Construction 2 - Red Check is speaking to the reflections
CHAPTER 1
LOOKING FOR THE Centi-Toes Everyone in the gallery is standing on tiptoes. The four little girls are wearing their beautiful head bands so high on their heads that they’re touching the ceiling. Their lamé skirts are embroidered with silvery thread. A wonderful moon light glow, created by the silvery thread, shines upon the girl’s faces. The sun is so bright that their silhouettes are perfectly reflected. REFLECTION OF THE GOLDEN BOW, turning around: If I spin around and around then surely the reflection of the bow will reach the centre of the axis. The melody - the sound of a harp and creaking of a bed - stops. MISS GOLD, speaking to the Golden Bow: Could you please stop moving around? I’m trying to use your stripes to write a score in D minor, but I can’t find the sharp. A figure in check, which was hidden until now, starts speaking, breaking up the harmonious group with his loud outfit. RED CHECK, addressing the reflections: You, with the nose in the air. Have you by any chance seen a Centi-Toes? I’ve looked here, there and everywhere, but it’s not here. He has probably used his wings to fly up onto the ceiling, he’s probably up there now wandering around. REFLECTION OF THE LITTLE PAGEBOY: Wait a minute, now you’ve mentioned it, I think I saw a strange animal perched up high. He went this way. He indicates to the left. The Red Check thanks him, adjusts his bowtie and goes the opposite way. He knows that everything in this gallery is a little topsy turvy.

CHAPTER 2
BEHIND THE SIDEBOARD
The little girls have disappeared to leave space for five important characters. With feet firmly on the ground, they look straight ahead: they are the guardians of the Sideboard. The Gallery is silent, the back of the room seems to be dramatically elongated. BLUE CARDIGANS, say their lines in unison, as though mechanically reciting a poem: A Centi-Toes walks at a speed less than three hundred and four point eight lampimeters. If one of its legs starts to reduce the initial rhythm by two lampimeters and taking into consideration that the slowing down will have an impact on all its feet, what would be the new walking speed of this Centi-Toes? GREY CARDIGANS, also in unison: One. The one that has taken off its shoes and eaten them. Everyone is quiet for a moment before starting to do impressions of one another. The cat makes the most of the hubbub that has been created. SIDEBOARD: Who are you and what do you want? YELLOW CAT: I’m fed up with my whiskers. If I find the Centi-Toes, I’m sure that the Check will want to thank me, so I’ll ask him to change me into a Spot. I’ve got an inkling that you’re hiding this strange animal behind you. The Yellow Cat has hardly finished his sentence when a dark shadow falls over him. He scuttles away furtively and disappears behind a metallic beam.

CHAPTER 3
THE CAT AND THE MOUSE MR. CAT speaking to the breathless Yellow Cat: Thinking about it, this story is very strange, riddled with laces and toes, lampimeters and beetles. Would you please bring me a cup of coffee? Hang on a minute, who invited you? He turns suddenly towards the reflection of a little girl who’s sitting down and hasn’t said a word. The little girl remains silent. Mr. Cat quickly becomes disinterested in her and turns towards Celestine. MR. CAT making a big gesture: Look at these walls; they are so sad, that over time, they have stopped moving. The Gallery twitches with annoyance. Mr. Cat wavers a little, but continues to speak. MR. CAT: All this fuss and nonsense, all this agitation! Who would eat a thousand shoes, who could swallow a thousand soles? I ask you! He turns to Celestine. Don’t you agree, my friend! Without listening to the mouse’s reply, he questions the little girl. MR. CAT: What a strange hat you’re wearing. If they are ears, their hearing range must be increased tenfold. Considering how far away you are, try holding them out and tell me what happens next. I’ll give you a cup of coffee. REFLECTION OF THE SILVER TIGHTS: The Centi-Toes is free. He’s hopping, skipping and jumping and twinkling all over. He’s so happy you’d think he was a little crazy!

CHAPTER 4
FEET FIRST The branches are snaked around the metallic beams, the thick hedges are pushing through the ground, fur covers the floor. The Gallery’s frizzy hair has been beautifully plaited. BLUE CHECK lounging on a chair: You could lose one foot a thousand times but you could only lose a Centi-Toes once. However, losing a Centi-Toes with beautiful shoes a thousand times, that couldn’t possibly be true! A feathery bush whispers, then bursts out laughing. GREY PANTHER delighted: What divine white, perfectly matching shoes! If I tune So with Ti, my coat will be a symphony. Takes three little steps and does a turn. The Red Panther looks at her red shoes slightly hesitantly, and can’t help but sneak a look at the lion’s brown Derbies. RED PANTHER muttering discreetly: As soon as he goes to sleep, I’ll swap them. A panicky shoe runs across the room. GIRAFFE WITH A FRINGE stretching out its neck: Wearing my new heels, I’m as straight as a peg, I stretch and get longer, I get thinner and I hit the ceiling. My head’s disappeared. Where’s my head? I’ve lost my head in a nest. Where am I? His long arms flounder all over the place. The fur becomes thicker and thicker. Little by little, it surrounds the room, making a golden halo around the Centi-Toes. CENTI-TOES humming and hopping around: I’ve given all my shoes to this zoo. The zoo has set me free. A zoo with shoes. I’m a hip-hopping Centi-Toes! He shouts Go barefoot!

LFG INVITES JESS CARTNER-MORLEY BACK TO BASICS
The buzz word this season is Minimalism. Essentials, basics, traditional values. At Little Fashion Gallery, we are drawn towards brands that offer timeless pieces that you can wear everyday. Brands such as American Apparel, Popupshop, Tuss… Jess Cartner-Morley, fashion editor of The Guardian, gives us her guide to the Minimalist trend.

Fashion is about dreams, but it is also about reality. (Anyone who has ever dressed their child in a delicious new outfit only to find it smeared with strawberry jam five minutes later will know this only too well.) So as the mood changes in the real world all around us, fashion changes too - even in the wardrobes of those lucky little people who don't need concern themselves with the job market for a good decade yet. But - in fashion at least - the reality check doesn't have to be bad news. There is a more intelligent, clear-eyed way of dressing emerging for a new era. Not sackcloth and ashes, just a pared-down, balanced wardobe in which the statement pieces the buildingblock staples, the wear-everyday classics, rather than the wear-once-in-a-lifetime evening showpieces. That means a retreat from the more frou frou extremes, with fewer coquettish ribbons and bows. It means more emphasis on structured, well-made basics and brilliant, day-to-evening prints than on embroidery and embellishment. It means shapes have evolved: instead of puff sleeves, what looks right now (for all ages) is a long, slim, stovepipe sleeve. To signal the new hardworking mindset, denim is back as a fashion staple. From the vogue for ripped jeans to the new on-trend pale denim, jeanswear is key in a way it has not been for years. This is a getting-dressed strategy which works even better on little people than it does in French Vogue. The younger generation have it easy - which, of course, is exactly as it should be.

DESIGNER FOCUS LITTLE MARC JACOBS This season’s Little Marc Jacobs collection incorporates all of the strongest looks from the designer’s collection, Marc by Marc Jacobs. The key to this collection is lots of different fabrics, lots of volume and layering, think 70’s. Colourful prints are worn side by side without hesitation, the Miss Marc Jacobs logo has never looked as pretty than when worn under an oversized knit cardigan. Knitwear takes the lead this season; jacquard jumpers, pompom hats invade little boys wardrobe’s, whilst the girl’s prefer huge aged mittens and graffiti print dresses worn with striped tights. Wine-red and turquoise blue are the key colours, seen in bright, bold blocks and in liberty prints. Babies haven’t been forgotten. Cotton sleep suits feature Mister Marc Jacobs and a crazy monkey, perfect as ultra-trendy newborn baby gifts.

With undeniably superb taste, she experiments with unusual colour combinations and uses exquisite fabrics, always keeping the child’s comfort in mind. This season, the colour spectrum is vibrant. Exclusive 60’s prints on skirts and scarves, pastels are co-ordinated with the deepest shades: bottle green, aubergine, navy blue. A ruffle around the collar and cuffs of a knitted dress. Mohair coats are worn with liberty print blouses, which add a more gentle touch to this winter’s wardrobe. For boys, there are jacquard knit cardigans and scarves, to wear with big checks for an incredibly trendy look.

LFG MEETS ESTHER LOONEN LILI & THE FUNKY BOYS Let’s enter the gentle yet sophisticated world of Lili & the Funky Boys’ designer. Clara Dayet meets Esther Loonen.
because these represent the real essence of the collection and help towards building the image of the brand.
Clara: This is now the third Lili & the Funky Boys collection. As a pioneer in terms of colours, you’ve created a very different style for babies clothes and this gives the brand a very strong identity. At LFG, we talk about the L&TFB style. Since the brand first started, have you changed its essential spirit? Esther: For me, enthusiasm and passion are combined with determination. I’m absolutely confident that the story of L&TFB is developing little by little and it’s very exciting. I now make sure that my designs strike the right balance between my ideas and my customer's expectations and this valuable exchange of views is a constant source of inspiration and is very fulfilling. The collections are well-structured, but I always make sure there are some strong and more daring pieces in each collection,
Clara: There’s so much to ask you because you’re multi-talented! I know you’re Dutch, and you’re a painter, designer, you love to hunt for antiques and of course, you’re the mother of little Lili… How do these different facets of your personality influence the creative process of L&TFB? Esther: I believe in synergy and in encounters. My inspiration comes from my past, my origins and my own cultural references, but also from nature, my paintings, the range of colours that I can use, working in a vintage boutique, which allowed me to develop my skills… I’m a designer for women‘s clothes, but it’s thanks to Lili that I’ve become a children’s designer: her movements, her wishes, her personality all inspire me daily. Lili is happy, kind, graceful and definitely funky!

LFG'S SUSTAINABLE LABEL LFG has renamed its Organic label, it is now the Sustainable LFG Label – this label recognizes the brands that engage and concern themselves with the environment. This passion for all things sustainable is justifiable yet complex… Marie Soudré-Richard, founder LFG’s aim was not to be the greenest site on the Internet. The brands are above all chosen for their design and legitimacy. LFG wanted to acknowledge those brands that respect the environment and that produce their products in an ethical manner. This organic label is therefore being replaced by a sustainable one. Although the term is widely used, it covers a whole host of responsible practices. This label signifies brands that set themselves apart by their environmental and social commitments. There are many different ways to show these commitments from using organic materials (cotton, linen, etc) as the primary material of a product to using sustainable materials such as carton, wood or recyclable materials. There are also companies that use products that are produced within Europe as this reduces the amount of travel and therefore the CO2 emissions. In order to show their social commitment companies can improve working conditions and use fair trade cotton. Under this label we find independent green labels such as FSC or PEFC, AB and ekologik as well as sub sections of brands that are considerate of the environment and of the social conditions. The process one has to go through to have a green label is often long and hard; it requires lots of different resources that smaller brands may not have. What is most important for LFG is having a responsible approach. Fabienne Raynaud, sustainable Development Consultant

LFG MEETS VIOLAINE BELLE-CROIX MILK DÉCO The third issue of MilK Déco is coming out soon. MilK Déco is an offshoot from the MilK magazine, it is a reference book for all things relating to children’s design, it provides a summary of good ideas that can be copied endlessly. We asked the project manager, Violaine Belle-Croix, to give an overview of the design and decoration trends for this Autumn and Winter. LFG: Why MilK Déco? Violaine: Since the creation of MilK magazine in 2003, the editor of MilK magazine, Isis-Colombe Combréas, has always been especially interested in interior design. I badgered her about it so much that in the end the section dedicated to interior design was almost overflowing! It was then that Isis-Colombe Combréas decided to do a special edition entirely dedicated to design. The third design issue will come out in October of this year. LFG: What is the key design trend for this season? Violaine: I don’t really like to talk about design in terms of seasons as I find design develops at a slower pace. I find that the children’s design industry is growing each year, it is now at the point where it has become its own entity and therefore no longer linked with adult’s design. At the moment, I would say that one of the key aspects of children’s design is adaptability; in terms of age, space and lifestyle.
LFG: Design for children remains a niche market with certain complicated production problems, so what’s your view about Ikea versus made-tomeasure.? Violaine: Unfortunately at the moment children’s design is almost always madeto-measure which therefore means it’s expensive. However, in the future, as children’s design becomes more widely spread and understood by more people it will make it more affordable. LFG: Do you think there’s a parallel between fashion and design in terms of trends? Is it fashion that follows design or the opposite? Do you think there are similarities in terms of shape, colour, source/period of inspiration, trend? Violaine: Even though there may occasionally be slight aesthetic connections, I don’t think that the trends of one are governed by the creations of the other, or vice versa. Design is affected by different criteria, it is more perennial and more difficult than fashion, particularly as far as conception, manufacture and usage is concerned. However, there is one thing that reunites fashion and design today and that’s the concern for quality and respect for the environment. So maybe even if there’s no parallel in terms of trend or style, there’s definitely a parallel of conscience. Lastly, the ongoing love affair with all things vintage has certainly influenced contemporary design. We see
objects made from natural wood, combined with softer, warmer materials such as felt and cotton leading the way. LFG: And what have you fallen in love with, design-wise, this season? Violaine: I appreciate the approach taken by Little Red Stuga (modular), Our Children Gorilla and Non Jetable (durable) and La Maison de Lena (original). It’s so difficult to choose, I can see so much enthusiasm and passion from these designers whether it be the adult designers (Piet Ein Heek) or the children’s designers (Sirch). LFG: At which point do you think a child’s word becomes design? Violaine: For me, the two main pillars of design are aesthetics and functionality. By functional, I mean that the child’s world and the adult’s world are not separate, they must be able to co-exist harmoniously. I believe it’s a mistake to design children’s furniture as decorations. Children aren’t silly, they understand the subtleties of colour, the quality of materials and the intelligence behind a game very well.

FINGER IN THE NOSE
Photo : Carl-Oskar Linné
1977. Rocking to the beat of the Sex Pistols and the Ramones, the punk tribe wear bleached jeans, their faded white look is achieved by a destroy wash process. 2009. The faded white jeans trend is back. The fashion bloggers are fighting over the few remaining pairs in second-hand clothes shops across Paris. On the catwalks, the jeans with the most trash chic look can be found at Balmain. LFG requested them and Finger in the Nose designed them - exclusively for us - two jeans that perfectly replicate this incredibly directional look. Always an innovator, the brand has dared to take all the punk elements of the 80s, showing once again that it’s in a league of its own.
