WHAT: A high quality clothing range for girls age 3 -13 with a distinctly bohemian feel, featuring shots of bright colour against neutral backgrounds, intricate and unique embroideries, timeless silhouettes and beautiful fabrics that stand the test of time.
WHY: The attention to detail boasted by this collection is breathtaking. We loved the stunning embroidery, fun neon trims and upbeat feel of every piece. There wasn’t a single judge who didn’t love this range, which arrived at Junior HQ in stunning tissue paper wrapping and pom pom trimmed dust bags! Lots of our judges commented that they would love all these clothes in grown up sizes. Lucky for them, the two mothers who design the collection have decided to grow their small capsule collection of mini-me mum’s pieces over the seasons to come. Our judges said:

WHO: Nellie Quats
WHAT: A girl’s clothing brand that splices modern clothing with hint of tradition.

Every piece is made to the highest standard with only natural top quality fabrics by a small family run factory in the UK, meaning garments are hard wearing and can be handed down through generations.
WHY: Our judges love, love, loved these beautiful dresses and separates that are made with tactile, natural fabrics in a range of mouth-watering colours and eye candy prints. The simple cuts and pretty details make them the perfect choice for parents and children who love pared back, fuss free style with a gentle nostalgic nod. Our judges said:

WINNER: SILVER BEST GIRLS FASHION COLLECTION
WHO: Marie-Chantal London
WHAT: A luxury clothing brand offering timeless pieces updated for contemporary life, founded by Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece. With a focus on beautifully designed separates, coats and party dresses, this brand is known for its attention to detail and stunning quality.
WHY: The Spring Summer 2019 collection showcased at the Junior Design awards really caught our judges’ attention. The gorgeous, light as air dresses inspired by the romantic idyll of Summer on Ile St Louis in Paris experienced by Princess Marie Chantal herself, really did conjure up carefree childhood holidays and we loved the the more contemporary rose printed all-in-one and co-ordinating pieces.
