I love Tea Collection for Mario because their clothes are designed to last in a fun exuberant mix of color and patterns that appeal to the both of us; to boot, Tea Collection is ethical in their sourcing practices, and they partner with the Global Fund for Children - who advance the dignity of children and youth around the world which I find both inspiring and important.
Tea Collection brings worldwide cultures and modern design to children's fashion. They achieve this by traveling the globe twice a year to explore and discover; when they return, they use their inspiration to create original designs that express the spirit of their adventures abroad.
For Fall-Winter 2014 Tea Collection traveled to Germany and were inspired by the primary colors and geometric shapes of the Bauhaus school of design. They took it all in - the avant-garde German Expressionist movement that changed architecture, painting, literature, theater, dance, film and music in the early 20th century. From the modern style on the Alpine ski slopes to the fairytale romance of the Schwarzwald (Black Forest), Germany is the inspiration for Tea Collection's Alpine Attitude & Cozy Kinder Collection.
