KEY WORDS OF KEY OU

ANAGRAM IS THERESULT OF REARRANGING THE LETTERS OF A WORD TO GET A NEW ONE.

NOUGH [ONE HUG]

In the car Martine? Oh no,

on the boat! The little heroine

scrambles off her watery

window ledge to tell her stories

to the waiting children. And one

thing is sure, she hasn’t wrinkled

a bit!

NTERTAINMENT [TEAM INER TENT]

Sponge bandana, fl uorescent

socks, cotton sneakers, fl ashy

sweat pants. Bingo, it all fi ts in

the bag! A cunning bag, because

when its full, it becomes a fl uffy

pillow. After the effort, time for

a break, and a chocolate medal

is well deserved by the little

athletes!

IGHTNING [NIGHT GLINT]

Pure light gets rid of all rudeness,

it plays with all that is precious and

doesn’t bother with unnecessary

things. Yet night is full of darkness

and things that are mighty, but

that’s another story.

ATIONAL POOL [NOT A LAIN LOOP!]

Two little divas swimming in

the pool. A national sport you’d

say? Oh no! There’s nothing like

looping around for a bit, then

stepping out for a tan!

As fashion is concerned,

As lunch is getting ready, baby

boring, so let’s break some rules!

When, in the big city, you get

fed up with strings and laces,

nothing is better than

Velcro! Slip in, slip on, it’s pure

Deep down in the jungle, only

even the bravest animals of

KEY OU


KEY OUPERMUTED EMPIRE

KEY OUPERMUTED EMPIRE

The island of Ou is a peninSula where the alpine Sun always shines, close to the ocean.

A magic canoe is needed to reach it, which one could obtain with bold caution from Mica Gain, the mighty MaGician, for a handsome sum of gold coins.

On the island of Ou, lives a fine gentlewoman who reigns over a court of well-behaved and loyal subjects. This gentle ruler often wishes for mischief and likes her regal portraits

to feature her with three arms or two heads, but always with a lovely headband. Much to

the bemusement of her court.

Her castle is modest, her tastes minimalist. Every afternoon, this dame leaves the comfort

of her homestead, to go to the harbour. There, she watches (and sometimes joins) her peoples,

gently parading on the promenade. They feast their eyes, in boaStful wonder, on each other’s

extraordinary attires and on the wonderful boatS. There, they also discuss the present,

the past and the future in hushed tones.

No-one knows the real name of this perfectly-dressed lady. Her bewildering mother

never told her. No-one dared delve further, and torn, she accepted her nameless fate.

She took revenge when she became a Mum a few years later. She named her bouncy babies

caroline and cornelia.

summer must-haves are like Key Ou’s little subjects – theywork in pairs. Their closet is functional: dual-purpose ratherthan duplicated, the right cut and a good template are their motto. And when you fi nd it – copy/paste it! Well not exactly, subtlety is required. Sea blue, including fi sh, is matched with grey blue. Gingham falls for smocked stripes and bicycles work in tandem.

“The Marni collection for children is a visual fi rework; at once cheerful and playful, each piece of clothing produces that surprise effect and instantly lightens your mood.” Marni unveils a very relevant line directly inspired from their women’s collection. We like the familiar poetical and geometric prints, and the abstract fl owers – all in delicious colours perfect for the season. A promising, spontaneous and colourful collection that we’re very proud to offer on Little Fashion Gallery this summer.


EXCLU

“Translating the A.P.C. range into a children’s line seemed natural”, highlights Judith Touitou, the artistic director of the brand.We’re very proud to present the A.P.C. capsule collection for children, designed exclusively for Little Fashion Gallery andavailable from 2 to 12 years, from 25€ on our site this summer. Perfectly cut, beautiful and timeless, this new line of children’s clothes is in keeping with what is one of the trendiest brands on the market. This light denim material and soft cotton jersey displays a parrot print that’s also reproduced on a shopping bag – one that all the Mums will defi nitely want to borrow!

READING: AN EDUCATIONAL PLEASURE • VIOLAINE BELLE-CROIX

One story, then off to bed. We choose the

book, a comfy position, hugs, and can finally

start with “once upon a time”… Who doesn’t

know this ritual? Weather we are parents, god

parents, cousins, aunts, nannies or babysitters,

we’ve all shared this delicious moment with kids.

Reading a story means feeling the pleasure of

sharing and transmitting, making a drawing

become a discovery. This childhoold initiation

gives children a passion for reading that, whilst

it starts as a shared experience, is to become

something intimate and secret. To read is to

become free, taking imagination a step further

and being autonomous. Making children

understand this is giving them the key to their

independence and their future, whether

they’re reading a book, an essay, a work

contract, or even a history course

Knowledge cannot exist without mastering

reading. “Jeunesse Edition” is lively, intelligent,

gay, beautiful and full of diversity. And if we

give ourselves the time to look, watch, find,

and sometimes even bargain hunt, we can put

together a library that will be able to create the

desire to read in a child, even before they start

school. This Little Fashion Book is the proof:

the three trendy queens are three incarnations

of the French language “figure de style”.

Through their story you will allow your child to

familiarize themselves with anagrams on Key Ou,

the palindrome on Key Li and the lipogram on

Key Po. And without even realizing it, they will

easily master these notions without giving

them a name... The goal is to stimulate their need

to learn in a playful way. Reading Cars or Dora

is of course not to be banned, but it should be

mixed in with a diverse collection of books,

capable of presenting to children a varied view

of children’s literature.

REPORTAGE

Diversity is a necessary quality for a

good library; so show it to them! We’ve wanted

to look in two directions on this subject and

so have spoken to both Olivier Douzou,

Editor in Chef of “Edition de Rouergue”,

and a mother with a desire to transmit an

ancestral passion for reading to her children.

READING IS BECOMING FREE.”“

Anne Laporte: book worm and mother of three children ( 2, 5 and 7 years old)

I would never have foreseen the fact that mykids wouldn’t like reading, as I myself have always been such a “book worm” – something I’ve always tried to transmit to them by offering them books on many occasions! I’d like them to develop their imagination and ability to reflect… I’m not sure my children learn as they read, but I think their personality’s get richer and their eyes become more sensitive to what surrounds them, as I will generally choose books that catch my eye with graphics, illustrations, or themes…

To begin with Rouegue – what are your

plans? To continue to work on new reading

angles and, through my job as an editor, to give

birth to what doesn’t yet exist.

What are the values that define the

publishing company? There are no specific

skills required, only a desire for new ideas.

I would define it as an ‘off the wall’ editorial line.

Your definition of reading? Freedom.

How do you manage to make children

feel free? By playing with the rules and

the scenery of the reader; counting on their

curiosity and ability to know that they don’t

know everything.

What was your aim in publishing

la dispa.ition ? First, it was to present the new

Rouergue identity, and play around a letter that,

before having a sound and a meaning, had

a shape. La Dispa.ition is a way to show those

that are learning to read, that as they write,

the shape of the letters takes over the images.

When you write, do you enjoy working

under constraint? Yes, and I also push myself

into it. Its something common to the majority

of my books...

How do you explain and transmit

the Oulipo to children? Explaining Oulipo

to children as they read ends up being an

experiment with text and images; one that offers

a whole lot of possibilities! It shows them

combinations and demonstrates a new way of

reading; so making books the way I picture them!

Scenographer, illustrator, designer, author…

What are you aiming for next? I don’t know,

but being an editor is keeping me quite busy.

Animated films do attract me, as well as architecture

(since my degree…), and I’d love to try out

the IBook as I feel there is much to explore.

What are you working on now?

In March, we’ll publish a book collated by Anouk

Ricard: Poèmes de terre. It’s a small collection of

poems in which the protagonists are rhymes,

that also serves an exploratory exercise on the

French “figure de style”. will be explored. We will also

launch Fourmi, a book for little ones on negative/

positive, and all the different ways one can read an

image. Finally, some graphic work with a Museum

in Guadaloupe, the preparation of the 2012 book

a summer fi lled with long

fully, I spy with my little eye…

A wonderful farniente accessory;

for long afternoons that are to

be consumed endlessly!

Berthe with big feet has had

enough. Everyone makes fun

they are competition shoes and

the best investment she’s made!

Ah! Imagine what you can see

through a telescope… All the

different planets, the moon,

the stars… Radar! Radar! I can

everywhere! So why not wrap

yourself into those Milky Way

This season, the sheriff is not

Panama, grab your holster

BEES? HANNAH DID.

Wow! Have you ever been to the Island of Li? It’s the island where colours pop in unison

and where fun slithers in the streets. We first reached the Island of Li by noon but also by fluke,

as we were learning to kayak on the river Lo. All we could see was a giant castle perched

on top of a rock, which we could hear all manner of happy sounds. What dizzying noises they were!

If we were in a dooM Mood from our hazardous trip on the river of LO, all our tension disappeared

quickly on hearing these hilarious songs. “yo, bob! MuG o’GuMbo, boy!” What joy!

We decided to explore this happy isle, keen to discover what made its inhabitants so ecstatic.

We learnt that Key Li was governed by an archduchess, whose sole aim was to have fun.

She was the great MadaM of merriment and for that, her people had deified her. Her madness

and warmth were legendary. When she welcomed us into her kingdom with such hospitality,

we became redder than red with excitement. During our stay, we danced, we smiled, we laughed, we jumped, we bounced and even drove

a shiny yellow racecar! This amusing archduchess quickly became our best friend, just like

that in one afternoon. We decided to abandon both our kayak and our journey, to instead spend

a few weeks riding on rollercoasters with our great new friend, archduchess hannah.

MUSTHAVENEW

“I wanted to design a line for children that would be adorable yet refi ned” explains Cordelia de Castellane. This summer Little Fashion Gallery welcomes the brand with a pastel selection. For girls we chose fl owery print blouses with a Japanese look, to match with well-cut and brightly-coloured unisex trousers. And the must-have? Fluorescent pink! For boys, seersucker is recurrent on jackets, and this season unveils a capsule collection designed in collaboration with the ex-designer of Zadig & Voltaire!

Your childrens’ closets require basic pieces, and we don’t always think of American Apparel for kids & babies. Such a shame! Little Fashion Gallery offers a large selection of their bodies, T-shirts and tank tops, each carefully made in a Los Angelesfactory that uses soft, comfortable and often organic cotton.As for the colours, whether pastel or bright, they’re totally trendy and make for a one-of-a-kind style!


REPORTAGE

A child’s world inside the house can’t be

merely reduced to his or her bedroom: their

toys are to be found everywhere - tiny

design pieces forming part of every room,

like the epitome of a sacralised childhood.

This blurring of space separation inherited

from the 70s nomadic spirit, doesn’t eradicate

the sacred character of the child’s room

though, since its organization is actually

one of any new parents’ main preoccupations.

We project all our dreams onto the child to

freedom to express oneself, and it can quickly turn

into an exhibition room with all the underlying

temptations. Contemporary design aficionados

will choose smart and pragmatic furniture,

whereas antique lovers will opt for anti-durability

and consider every step of the child’s evolution as

the perfect excuse to look for the ideal piece.

Here are some ideas for both categories...

The bed iSSue. There is a true hesitation

between the adjustable bed, which can be

adapted to the phases of a child’s evolution,

and the old bed, found in an antiques fair. For

the early days, however, the child’s safety should

be the absolute priority, and a bed with bars that

meets the required standards should be used

before looking for the ideal vintage piece.

Little Fashion Gallery thus suggests the

Œuf NYC adjustable bed with leaning feet.

The vintage choice: after the classic bed

with bars (Ikea), a 50’s couch can be re-used

as the perfect children’s bed.

THE CHILD’S ROOM • CAROLE DAPREY

THE CHILD’S ROOM CRYSTALLIzES

THE PARENTS’ FANTASIES ”“

come, and the place which is devoted to them

crystallizes the parents’ fantasies. The child’s

room epitomizes all that we yearn for; a search

for beauty and harmony, and, above all, a quest

for meaning. This is a space where one has the Bottom: apple shape cushion, Œuf NYC, 50 €. Garland, Lucky Boy Sunday, 30 €.


REPORTAGE

TidyinG up the toyS. Better than the

usual toy box, which takes up too much space

and literally swallows the tiniest of toys, a low

shelf enables the child to tidy up his/her toys

while serving as a game support as well. Little

Fashion Gallery suggests the Œuf NYC

mini book shelf which has a playful look and

closing and opening parts; or the box/ low

table by Nonjetable, with a variety of spaces it

makes a clever alternative to the classic toy box.

The vintage option: a wall shelf laid on the

floor that can later go back to being used for its

initial purpose! Its reduced space leads to natural

selection and tidiness

More...

• The book Mobilier design pour enfants, by Carole Daprey (Picpoq editions) highlights the key pieces of children’s design from the 20s to the 70s.

• The site http://kidsroomzoom.wordpress.com,the “how old r u?” section is all about artists,journalists, designers and photographers thatremember or imagine their childhood bed.A mixture of fantasy and moving recollection,their answers are often funny and inspiring.

An adapted Scale. Like a parallel

universe adapted to his/her size, a child’s

furniture can be placed everywhere in the

house. Here a chair, there a small desk or a little

table. The child will thus learn the first basics

of autonomy.

Above: vintage shelves. Car Max, Sirch, 102 €.Opposite: all is vintage.

Little Fashion Gallery unveils the whole

furniture range by Sirch, including

three rocking stools, each a different size,

that serve both as seats and game supports.

The vintage option: several school chairs in

various shapes and colours that can be displayed

throughout the house. In front of a desk or a

book shelf, or as a night table, they have many

uses.

KEY POTHE FORBIDDEN LETTER


KEY POTHE FORBIDDEN LETTER

On Key Po resided the most splendid but fierce of princesses, Princess Chloe.

Revered by her subjects, who trembled in her presence, she used to insist on some uncompromising rules.

If these were not followed, her moods could turn sombre. Her shouting could turn her peers into stone.

Her whining could switch off the entire isle’s lights. Her grumbling could frighten monsters. No joking.

The most inflexible of her rules consisted of never, never, never, ever using the first letter. You know,

the first letter? If Princess Chloe discovered her subjects were using this letter, she would fly into the most

incredible fury. If she ever got wind of someone uttering one word with the forbidden letter, she just couldn’t

control her outburst. Her subjects were used to it. Therefore, they were extremely prudent in their discussions. Even the court’s smitten poet needed to comply with this curious rule. The news of his predecessor’s

fortune surely kept him on his toes. The poor devil ended up being thrown out of the kingdom, into

the surrounding desert, never to return.

But one evening, while he devotedly recited to her the poem professing his undying love, he slipped.

She went red. She went redder. Redder more. He froze. She shouted: “who permitted you to use the forbidden

letter?”. “So sorry, your Highness, so sorry,” he muttered. “I used the letter to refer to the love I possess for you,

do forgive me.”

She thought for two minutes. “He is nice, this poet. Do I wish to lose him?” The truth is she found this rule

quite tiring. She slowly got up from her throne and with immense gusto, bellowed:

“argh, never mind this abominable rule! I am exhausted by it. I abolish it now!”

The whole kingdom quickly got hold of the news. Everyone rejoiced with cries of ah ah ah ah ah!!!

”“ LET’S GET STARRY, YET INCOGNITO.

There’s pixie dust on Island Po’s trends: but a magician (or anunscrupulous princess!) is stealing people’s clothes! Soto remain unnoticed, let’s opt for chameleon outfitsin pastel or iridescent colours; let’s get starry, yetincognito! The materials in the closet are diaphanous:muslin, poplin or light jersey – easy to slip away in.Any must-haves? The frilled tutu skirt, declined infairy tulle! And if at night all cats are grey, in thedaytime Po’s inhabitants sunbathe in saffron colours.

SHOPPING DESIGN

On Key Po we love poetry, potpourris with roses and being pampered. In the young ladies’ bedrooms, you see hair brushes made of unicorn hair, necklaces with oyster pearls and white rabbits in a hurry. In the evening, we color Princess Chloe’s dresses on a nice coloring book in the moonlight. The inhabitants have cats and domestic butterflies, and most of them collect shooting stars and paper swans. But all is well concealed in polka dot suitcases which are duly locked.
