We adore the set design and styling of this shoot for Luxury label Marie-Chantal SS17 collection which takes it’s inspiration from 70’s Hollywood and the classic glamour the period is renowned for. This retro-chic collection combines fresh tones with vintage vibes. The label concentrates on classic design for both boys and girls – with lightweight cashmere knits for the boys and silk party dresses for the girls. The shoot includes some beautiful wallpaper and tiles, so we had to find out where it all came from.
“This is my most playful collection yet, from my new exclusive Painted Flower print to classic Liberty prints and luxurious jacquards. Dreamy pastels and cool mint greens permeate through the collection recalling that chic, retro Beverley Hills vibe which is so on trend for this season.” Princess Marie-Chantal, Creative Director

Marie-Chantal was founded in 2001 by Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, Creative Director; mother of five children, one girl and four boys.
At Marie-Chantal our aim is to curate children’s wardrobes to inspire stylish mothers and children. We design our children’s collections to celebrate the heritage and nostalgia of childhood – beautifully crafted clothes that children enjoy wearing.
Designed in London and crafted in the finest fabrics, our nostalgic and timeless clothes will see your children effortlessly through their childhood. We source the best fabrics, buttons and trims for our children’s collection. Our clothes are made to last and to be passed on to and enjoyed by siblings.
The collections are sold across three global channels: retail, wholesale and online – two bricks and mortar boutiques, and their e-shop, as well as being stocked in Harrods and Selfridges.
