Bobo Choses' SS16 "Der Blaue Reiter" (The Blue Rider) collection draws inspiration from artistic giants like Matisse, Picasso, Pollock, and Hockney. As an art enthusiast, I was thrilled to see this homage to Der Blaue Reiter, a group of Russian and German artists who made Munich their creative hub from 1911-1914. Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc were among these visionaries, known for their expressionist style, abstract forms, and vibrant color palettes.
I'm absolutely smitten with how Bobo Choses has translated this artistic movement into a fun, bold, and colorful collection for kids. The range is a perfect blend of whimsy and style - think beautiful summer dresses and skirts for girls splashed with eye-catching hues, vintage-inspired swimwear that makes me wish I was a kid again, and the coolest T-shirts. The collection is a visual delight, featuring fauvist pears, big bold still-life fruits, and even embroidered artists' portraits across all age ranges and styles, including adorable baby clothes. I'm particularly drawn to the more abstract designs like the colorful fluid motifs and bohemian painted stripes - they're just so playful and unique!
Mario and I love this collection, and I'm certain you will too. It's not just clothing; it's wearable art that captures the spirit of childhood curiosity and creativity. Trust me, your little ones will look like they've stepped right out of a modern art masterpiece!
