The ELLE children's collection offers a subtle distillation of the latest trends, decoded and reinterpreted. The 2010 Fall/Winter collection has one foot in the classroom and the other in the parks of Paris, drawing inspiration from retro-chic or contemporary looks. ELLE has created a wardrobe made up of the season's basics and irresistible fashion pieces, for a warm, light-spirited winter!
Tableau noirAs back to school period starts, ELLE allows little girls to use their imagination at the blackboard! In the streets of Paris the feel is retro-chic, slyly evoking François Truffaut's film "The 400 Blows". Recalling a schoolchild's notebook, the check pattern plays up on blouses or in skirts with an emphasized waist, in high-contrast linings. The silhouette is crafted to look light and structured. A-line dresses take on pared-down lines, while Bermuda shorts and trousers in gray stretch satin are highlighted by thin candy-pink piping.
Rendez-vous d’automneFall will be the new "grand season" with ELLE! On an outing with her girlfriends in the parks of Paris, our schoolgirl shows off the nuances of warm orange-tinged colors, sprinkled with flowers to enliven the autumn. For a casual, trendy look, girls can opt for “liberty” prints on tunic dresses and on blouses to be worn with straightforward clean denim. Adorned with yarn embroidery, in boot-cut jeans or shorts with suspenders, and even in a boyish vest, denim lends itself to every variation!
Star DivaTo end the year on a beautiful note, a contemporary feminine story, imbued with dreamy poetry… to be worn in an everyday or dress-up version! Winter is aglow with sparkling paste detailing on the tops, while slim vinyl belts emphasize the waist of velvet trousers. ELLE has its head in the clouds with an all-over print of a starry sky, or silhouetting the graceful outline of a little girl taking flight.
