Vogue Inspires our Top 9 Texture-ific Kidswear Pieces

In the last few years, adult fashion trends and style have begun to enter the world of children’s fashion with mini-me looks popping up in all the biggest design houses and stylish celebrity children, at the ripe old age of four, gracing the front pages of fashion magazines.

Children’s fashion has become just as important as fashion for adults, and if style and such is important for you and your little one, and the best way to ensure your mini trendsetter has the ‘right’ style, is to translate adult fashion information to your little fashionista’s wardrobe.

This week on Vogue.co.uk, their shopping list was all about texture.

To follow suit, but with a childish twist, we chose some texture-ific pieces from our favorite SS10 children’s collections including Cacharel, Rare The Kid, No Added Sugar, Simple Kids, Roberto Cavalli, Torres, Antik Batik and D&G Junior:
