Smoke and Mirrors

Children’s designers go back to the future for Fall ’16

Maybe it’s the giddy response to the latest Star Wars installment, or maybe it’s the dystopian sci-fi theme that’s taken over tween books and movies: Whatever the inspiration, children’s designers went back to the future for Fall ’16. Think gunmetal gray leather jackets, smoky silver boots and charcoal-dusted dresses. Add in moody hues and high-shine details, and little ones will be ready to traverse the
rugged, urban landscape and face any foe—from zombies to Sith Lords—in killer style.
