Big in Japan

kaiko.jpgYou have enough smocked frocks, cargo pants and graphic tees to outfit a pint-sized army, but your kids’ wardrobes are still lacking style.

Kaiko, a new line of functional but unique basics, may very well fill the void. Created by two Japanese-born, New York City-based moms with backgrounds in fashion and costume design, the collection features distinctive separates made from soft, natural materials — like organic cotton jersey, linen, wool and indigo dyed denim — often sourced from Japan. Many of the pieces are reversible or multi-purpose. A halter-style flower garden top, for example, doubles as a skirt with a sash, while a pair of gauze and plaid pants look equally great worn inside out or outside in. The pieces can be easily pair together or mixed with your tot’s existing closet staples for a chic global playground look.

No one has to know you didn’t travel to the Far East to get it.
