Back from a long holiday, in a posting mood again! The first on the list is a Portuguese brand (again – I’m biased!): Cherry papaya Kids. Creative, comfortable clothes in Premium Organic Cotton Fleece and Jersey for children aged 3 mo to 7 y old. Fixe! (pronounced “fish” or “cool” in Portuguese).Each collection tells a story, the first one is sweet, colorful and fresh. Prints came directly from the realm of fantasy and “clothes are positively tantrum proof!”.

Cherrypapaya Kids is designed and produced in Portugal. the brand was founded by Sandra Barradas, a mother of two young girls who worked for 15 years in the Textile Industry. Textile engineer with a MBA  in marketing, Sandra first worked as Product Development, and later as Account Manager several years with Nike.

The F/W 16-17 collection is called ‘Into the woods’ and is dedicated to all the little collectors of leaves, pinecones and pebbles, the ones that always find magical treasures in the wild

Cherrypapaya who has showed at CIFF in Copenhagen, plans to be an exhibitor at the next Playtime Paris.
