This spring we have done some cherry picking from another new very interesting brand. Gardner and the Gang grabbed our attention with their cool prints – which are always that little bit different, like their urban leggings with a turban and moustache print, and are ideal for layering. Whether it is for playing or dressing-up, with outfis from this new children’s brand, kids will always be perfectly dressed. Comfy, easy to wear and made of 100% cotton, with silkscreen prints. The brain behind Gardner and the Gang is the talented Singapore-based Swedish graphic designer Mrs K - Kristin Nystrom.
Kristin moved from Sweden to Singapore 6 years ago with her husband who was relocated there through his work. She thinks Singapore provides an inspiring environment, with closeness to production of her clothes and the fact that the city is built up by so many cultures is truly fantastic.
She gets inspired by everyday life and finds ideas for her drawing in simple things around her. But her audience is tough she admits. Children are very critical and it is a great and encouraging challenge to attract their attention with new and cool prints. But it's a lovely challenge, she says.
We certainly think she has succeeded so far with that challenge! :)
