Stella McCartney for Gap
While this collection is admittedly adorable, we're not sure who will be shelling out big bucks on items for four-year-olds who will soon outgrown them. $14 for stockings? We don't like spending that much on tights for ourselves! And while the Sgt. Pepper's inspired coat is very cool (and a nice homage to McCartney's ex-Beatle father), we can't imagine toddlers gravitating towards such a stylized, mature garment in the way an adult would. Boys sketching sneakers that come with a set of pens, seem like a great idea, though we fear how much they cost, and parents may not want their children getting the idea that it's OK to draw on their expensive new clothing.
McCartney's collection will be carried in select stores throughout the United States, Canada, the UK, France, Ireland, and Japan. Will everyday shoppers shell out for designer denim for tots, or will rich fashionistas be running to their local malls? We'll have to wait and see.
