Bobo Choses AW20 "The Catalogue Of Marvellous Trades"

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Bobo Choses' AW20 collection, "The Catalogue of Marvellous Trades," is a celebration of creativity, possibility, and freedom. It poses a question we've all heard: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" But instead of limiting the answers to astronauts or firefighters, this collection opens up a world of inspiring possibilities.

As a family, we resonate deeply with Bobo Choses' philosophy that all trades are important. Mario, my son, dreams of becoming a game designer one day. It's a perfect example of how modern careers can be just as exciting and valuable as traditional ones. This collection seems to echo that sentiment, encouraging children to explore and value a diverse range of professions.

Sustainable & Unisex

Bobo Choses continues their commitment to sustainability. The brand uses GOTS certified organic cotton yarn in 66% of their kids' collection and 90% in their Baby collection. They've also incorporated eco-friendly fabrics like recycled polyester and lyocell, a biodegradable material made from sustainable wood pulp.

The collection's relaxed fits and vintage patterns blend soft, washed colors with pops of bright hues. It's a versatile palette that mirrors the infinite possibilities of a child's future - perfect for budding game designers, artists, scientists, or whatever a child dreams of becoming!

Creativity in Every Detail

This season, Bobo Choses has created a variety of patterns and styles. From voluminous dresses and pleated skirts to cozy coats and reversible parkas, each piece is designed with both style and functionality in mind. I particularly love the quilted jackets with removable sleeves - perfect for unpredictable weather and active kids like Mario.

What truly sets this collection apart are the delightful details. Embroidered accents, jacquard and intarsia knits all pay tribute to creativity. These artistic techniques serve as a reminder that creativity is at the heart of many professions, encouraging children to think outside the box in whatever career they choose.

So, what do you want to be when you grow up? With Bobo Choses, the answer is limited only by imagination. Discover all the marvelous trades from this collection and let your creativity soar!

TRANSLATOR OF UNWRITTEN WORDS

“You should share unimagined stories in every language there is for kids around the world to enjoy. If the challenge of literary translation is to stay faithful to the original while evoking the same feelings, things get worse when the original does not even exist.”

CLOUD SCULPTOR

“You will be responsible for people spotting sheep, horses and vessels drifting through the skies. Make sure every cloud is puffy and has its silver lining.”

COLLECTOR OF BEAUTIFUL WORDS

“You’ll be in charge of catching beautiful words with a butterfly net and preserving them ‒ an endangered species nowadays ‒ for future generations to enjoy. You and your friends can trade words with each other.”

LOST THINGS RECOLLECTOR

"You will be in charge of taking the lost things to the secret place where lost things go. Prepare yourself to gather many pencils, umbrellas, good pieces of advice and balloons that have gone up in the air."

PILLOW TESTER

"You must sleep with a different pillow every night. Try sleeping in bed, sitting on a chair, standing inside the wardrobe. In the morning you should evaluate both the quality of the pillow and the quality of your dreams."

BIRD TUNER

"There is nothing more disappointing than a lovely picnic in the countryside on a sunny summer’s day and birds singing out of tune. Your job is to tune the birds accurately so that a Cockatoo Parrot doesn’t sound like a rusty old trumpet."

LUCKY STAR DISTRIBUTOR

"You shall open the telephone book on any page at random. Then close your eyes and pick a new fortunate person. Call to congratulate."

SHADOW REPAIRER

"Losing one’s shadow is kind of a problem. Shadows are soft and they tend to peel off. Carry around your thread and needles to help kids with frayed-elbow shadows."

STRAIGHT LINE BENDER

"Give a little twist to everything that is boringly uniform and straight, such as lines, roads, horizons, ideas, etc."

MOON SUPERVISOR

"Moon feels glad when looked at, but nobody cares about her anymore. Keep an eye on her, write her poems so she doesn’t feel neglected."

DINOSAUR SHEPHERD

"Tend, herd, feed and guard flocks of terrible lizards. Dinosaurs enjoy being scratched behind their ears. Keep a watchful eye out for poisonous plants or falling meteorites. Keep an eye on your herding dogs too."
