Il Gufo Launches Spring/Summer collection 2011 at Pitti Immagine Bimbo Trade Show


The luxury childrenswear brand Il Gufo presented their Spring/Summer 2011 season collection at The Pitti Immagine Bimbo Trade Show. Delicate turquoise, coral and sand tones combined with the more spring-like hues of blue and pearl grey flow onto soft natural fabrics, like linens, cottons and voiles for a collection as refreshing as a sea breeze.

For girls gauzy feather-light fabrics: geometric jersey, voile and silk gauze applications alight softly on colored plissé knit dresses, descending on shoulders and bodices like petals. Smocked bodices creating playful ripples of light and shade give pretty brightly colored voile dresses a stylish touch.

Boyswear is based on contrasts: polo shirts made from white cotton piquet with stripy collars and stripy T-shirts and shirts made of cotton, linen or jersey, with normal collars, Nehru collars or white collars and cuffs. The classic logo makes way for tiny stylised owls, finely embroidered or applied to the fabric.

For babies and toddlers we have created a special line of cashmere cotton knitwear. A magical zoo of playful bears, friendly crocodiles and merry little fish, elephants, giraffes and lions are embroidered or applied to the fabrics of the baby collection. Here too our tiny owls are applied to cotton T-shirts and bodysuits, while underwear and coordinates are made of soft white towelling with delicate pink, grey or blue balloon applications.
