Childrenswear: a word, a concept, an essential content.
While the trade for men’s and women’s fashion is at a standstill and those who sell clothing and / or accessories have pulled down the shutters to the customer, children’s fashion continues.
Yes, all the shops that sell items for girls and boys continue to do business.
Because yes, the need is varied for parents struggling with their slightly younger children, and it is great for the brands that deal with them.
It is an organ, a world on par with everything related to the world fashion system.
The support from the founding brands of fast fashion is essential: Zara, H&M, Uniqlo and so on… Which make the difference, just like they do for adults.

It is wrong to define the trend as a sales strategy without any purpose, it is about taking steps towards the future, or rather, realizing that some topics should not even be a reason for discussion.
The elimination of sexist stereotypes in adult fashion is finally happening for children as well.
This change of perspective is mandatory, it is necessary to take into account the small age’s client and the sensitivity that his growth and affirmation in the world needs.
The gender free trend is a mission that has achieved goals and results for some time.
A way of dressing that becomes a way of being and a new way of thinking that emancipates itself once again in the world of fashion.
What exactly is gender free?
It is a concept that goes beyond the word unisex: the term that during the 1960s was inspired by garments that detached themselves from the working class to catapult into fashion weeks, composing outfits that could be shared between him and her.
