New summer clothing collections for girls, boys and newborns
evoke breezy West coast and tropical beach vibes
Salt Lake City, Utah, April, 2010 -- Naartjie, the original name in fashionable
kid-friendly childrens clothes, has announced the arrival
today of its new Summer Two line for children and infants of ages 0-10. The latest
collection features the company’s usual comfortable, high quality fashions in a
fresh new palette of colors and original print patterns that evokes summertime at
the beach.
“The latest Summer Two collection arrives with a distinctly retro beach vibe, with
an exotic tropical feel for girls and a classic California surf style for boys,”
said Joe Norwood, director of marketing, Naartjie USA. “As is our goal with each new
collection, our designers have brought cool, fashionable styles to infants’ and children’s clothes.”
Naartjie’s Summer Two line for girls sports an easy, care-free style and takes its
inspiration from exotic destinations around the world, from India to Indonesia.
Naartjie’s large scale “village floral” print evokes images of a lush tropical
Balinese village, and coordinates with crisp “indo” spot and “global” stripe prints
to create unique, beach-style color combinations. Sequins, embroidery, bronze
glitter prints and dip dyes add to the global style of the collection, which is
completed by colorful mix and match shorts and tank tops.
Naartjie’s boys Summer Two collection draws inspiration from 1960‘s Southern
California surf culture, copping its retro look and feel from vintage iconography,
featuring “woodie” surfboards, long boards, beach shacks and old movie posters. The
collection’s color palette, which includes shades of turquoise, island, banana and
reddish mars was created to evoke fiery summer sunsets, crystal clear water and
long, hot summer days spent at the beach.
Summer Two for newborn girls mixes whimsical “b-bird” and “indo” spot prints to
create fun, quirky styles. Soft shades of dew and ballet combine with bright summer“budgie” and “parrot” colors feature in a variety of rompers, one-pieces, shorts,
tunics, long shorts, harem pants, tunic, dresses, and bodysuits.
The newborn boys’ collection also gets the old-school California surf treatment,
with surfboard and palm tree graphics in a palette of dark brown mixed with retro
orange and frosty blue and multicolored “Vegas” stripe and “vintage” stripe
patterns. Denim adds to the relaxed, beach look.
Naartjie designs, colors, prints, and styles represent a truly unique synthesis of
European fashion trends with western casual lifestyle. Featuring a dominant focus on
natural fabrics that are garment-dyed, pre-washed and pre-shrunk for easy wear, low
maintenance and comfort, Naartjie uses a garment dye process that results in a more
vibrant color and softer clothing and accessories for precious little ones.
The ultimate in mix and match, Naartjie introduces new colors, prints and styles
within a monthly grouping to allow customers to mix and match across the entire
assortment. In addition, shoppers can mix and match between Naartjie collections,
which showcase the freshest and broadest color assortment in the industry,
distinctive detailing, mixing of fabrics, appliqués and embroidery details. Always“Kid-Friendly” design concepts made primarily of natural fabrics that feature
weight-right fabrications for maximum comfort and easy care. Each item is designed
and constructed for easy-wear comfort, whether the garment is dressed up or dressed
