Children’s ClothingTrend Outlook for Girls Clothes–Fall 2012


BOLD PRINTSThe prints have it…this year, all collections of girls clothing have very bold and vivid prints. Don’t shy away from having too much. From florals to geometrics…bold prints are the way to go.

TRUE BLUEBright blue, bold blue, blue and blue. Blue is the color of the season in vibrant hues. Especially when contrasted with neutrals or black.

SPARKLE AND SHINEShiny metallics are in. Look for bright shades of bold colors like fuschia and cobalt sparkly accents. Everyone could use a little something shiny in their wardrobe this season.

EMBELLISHMENTSNovelty rules the roost this year in girls clothing this Fall. From ruched fabrics to embrodiery, woven ribbons, lace trims, fabric flowers and applique…interesting fancy embellishments are prevalent in much of the girls outfits this Fall.

FUTURISTIC PRINTSClassic prints are giving way to futuristic prints of circles, geometric graphics and Jane Jetson-esque just plain ‘Fun’ prints. Every little girls wardrobe, needs just one piece this season. A little goes a long way!

POLKA, POLKA, POLKADots that is! Polka dots are hot and everywhere this season in fun colors, whimisical shapes. A must have this season!

APPLIQUECute and adorable, applique is everywhere this season on girls clothes. The pant, the sleeve, the bodice. We are seeing it two ways….monochromatic–matching the fabric and contrasting to add a pop of color and another layer of detail.

COMPANY INFORMATION

Blueturtlekids.com

Blue Turtle Kids online children’s clothing boutique was launched by a seasoned corporate executive that found herself in a new role as a stay-at-home mom. Anxious to dress her two sons in uniquely designed, comfortable clothing…she began to search for fun and colorful clothing from quality brands. But as luck would have it, her favorite local children’s clothing boutique closed and she had no place to shop.

Realizing how hard it is to find boys clothing designed with more than sports balls in mind, she started blueturtlekids.com as an online children’s clothing boutique focused exclusively on boy’s clothes. After a year, her customers simply demanded she start selling girls clothing…and so, today blueturtlekids.com sells both boys and girls clothing.

Blueturtlekids.com is focused on providing the latest in children’s clothing each and every season. In addition, blueturtlekids.com carries many “Made in the USA” children’s clothing lines.

Motion Graphics Studio Leftchannel Unveils Sophisticated Character Animation at Columbus Nationwide Childrens Hospital

Columbus, OH (PRWEB) June 21, 2012

The artistry of motion graphics studio leftchannel came alive Wednesday when Columbus Nationwide Childrens Hospital opened its doors for the first time since completion of a $ 450 million expansion and environmental installation, seven years in the making.

In October, 2011, leftchannel overshadowed six other design firms bidding for the coveted job of translating static graphics to elegant, organic and sophisticated motion graphics in the Hospitals magic forest and two entry corridors. Under the creative direction of leftchannel President Alberto Scirocco, Taehee Lee, leftchannels lead designer/animator on this project, while working with other leftchannel designers created a gentle and sophisticated character animation that brings birds, deer, bunnies and other woodland creatures to life with an organic quality that works with the Nationwide Childrens Hospitals child-centric, eco-friendly design.

According to Aki Carpenter, art director at Ralph Applebaum Associates, Inc. of New York, four Columbus design firms, two New York firms and one Chicago firm were close contenders for the project ultimately awarded to leftchannel.

Ralph Appelbaum Associates is the design firm overseeing the entire Nationwide Childrens Hospital expansion project, and Carpenter is the projects art director.

We had seven big players from Columbus, Chicago, and New York bidding on this project, Carpenter said. All of the firms came out on top with solid graphic design, but it all boiled down to leftchannels perfect execution of the media we provided during the bidding process.

They have a great cosmopolitan background, and theyre based in Columbus. We felt that working with a Columbus firm was important, and once we met with leftchannel we knew we had the right design team.

Scirocco says he knew leftchannel had exactly what was needed to complete the hospitals motion graphics design, but was nonetheless humbled when the project was awarded to his team.

We knew we were the ideal candidate for this project but we were up against some talented firms, Scirocco said. Earning this contract was a genuine affirmation of our teams capabilities.

Columbus Nationwide Childrens Hospital is a healthcare network that provides wellness, preventive, diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitative care for infants, children, adolescents and selected adult patients. A medical staff of more than 800 and a hospital staff of almost 4,000 provide state-of-the-art pediatric care for 500,000 patient visits annually.

The Nationwide Childrens Hospital is home to Ohios first Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center, and its Columbus Childrens Research Institute is one of the top 10 Nationwide institutes of health-funded, free-standing pediatric research.
