The kind folks at Stride Rite invited me to attend their show at the petiteParade, the junior branch of NY Fashion Week. From my first row seat (wooo!!) I watched two parades – the showcase featuring collections by Andy & Evan, Floatimimi, Oil & Water, Stella Cove, SUOAK and Sweet Lola, and then the Stride Rite Children’s Group runway showcase.
The hosts of the showcases were twins Tristin and Tyler – two very sassy kids with their own website about their adventures in the big city.
It was impressive seeing little kids confident strutting their way up and down the runway, showing (for the most part) no hesitation at the wall of cameras at the end.
The Stride Rite Children’s Group runway showcase was a sneak peek at their Spring 2014 collection – full of floral accents and pops of bright color.
Flowers in the hair, spring sandals on the feet.
Denim, flowers and pretty sandals.
Superheros! Love this nod to Kill Bill.
I really enjoyed the show, seeing these gorgeous children modelling trends for next spring. I’m a big fan of Stride Rite shoes (Cheese has basically worn them since she started walking), so it was really fun seeing the spring line before it hits stores (and also before winter hits – I’m totally in denial).
So fun! Guess my invite got lost in the mail haha!
I was speaking with their social media manager/marketing manager and she invited me! Want her details?
