Mini-Me Styling Made Easy: Harper’s Bazaar Arabia Partners with Galeries Lafayette
As temperatures climb our wardrobe choices need a rethink, including those of our miniature style mavens
Shifting into high summer styling mode requires major wardrobe reorganisation, but this seasonal pivot isn’t just for grown ups. We all know the unpleasant effects of kids feeling the heat when they’re dressed all wrong – pulling at itchy fabrics, shedding layers that get lost, and complaining of too-tight trousers are a daily (if not hourly) occurrence.
Partnering with Galeries Lafayette, on June 10th Harper’s Bazaar Arabia invited a clutch of industry insiders and avid readers to attend a styling masterclass at its Dubai Mall store, hosted by junior fashion editor Imogene Legrand, featuring an array of luxury brands in adorable mini-me sizing.
From Kenzo to Pucci, Michael Kors to Missoni, guests mingled over coffee and light bites before sitting down to see the latest in kidswear styling.
From how to choose timeless co-ord sets that lend themselves as easily to lazy Sunday afternoons as formal occasions, to how to elevate an outfit with a simple switch of shoe, Legrand curated a chic edit of capsule pieces for girls and boys as the temperatures soar.
Keeping summer travel plans in mind, Legrand’s selection featured airport-friendly sweatshirts, chic statement T-shirts and lightweight, comfortable separates, presented with a little help from her stylish assistants.
