Tutu du Monde SS18 Finding Magic









The new collection from Tutu du Monde has arrived and it is as every bit magical as I remembered and have grown to expect and enjoy. Only each season I seem to fall deeper in love. Perhaps as I grow older I feel the pull towards the innocence of make believe the magic of every day and the gift it is to our children to be growing up in these times. Times, where it seems everything is possible and limitless and summers are endless and wild and wonderful. 

Andrea Remnecks unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality and craftsmanship lives in each piece of embroidery, every layer of tulle that transports the pieces in the collection to an other-worldy essence. They pieces are powerful and soft, fun and inspiring. Pieces for imaginative play, parties, flower girls alongside pieces with everyday cottons and light summer dresses. Each pieces is designed to be treasured, kept and handed down to the next sibling and next generation with memories and stories to pass alongside.

Andrea draws inspiration from the delicate, the divine, the vintage and whimsical, expressing her creativity with a contemporary spin and couturiers eye. The journey each beautiful items takes perfectly illustrates the love that is poured into them, from the design stage to their production. Tutu Du Monde's garments are created with love by a group of extremely talented people who are proud to be able to use the skills handed down to the them through their families. The exquisite beading you see on each dress takes an entire days meticulous work. Care is put into every stitch, hand crafted and hand dyed making each pieces truly unique.  

Is it no wonder then that each pieces feels so utterly wonderful to hold and to wear, as though its very stitches bind it to another world, a world steeped in the history of storybooks and fairytales and Hans Christian Andersons tales of virtue and resilience told and retold in poetry, plays and fairytales transformed into ballets. With so much of this magic becoming lost where fast fashion blinds the very essence of being a child, of imagination and creativity and believing in magic, we applaud those that do believe.
