Karoline BOTHOREL-BOLZINGER (Designer/Artistic Director) and Anne MASANET (Marketing and Sales) are both experts of the children’s market and glasses addicts. Jointly, combining their skills, they founded Very French Gangsters. Their reading and sunglasses collection was conceived with the help of an optician in the Jura mountains, the heart of the glasses industry in France. Meticulously thought, with great attention to detail, the glasses are produced in China. Three models (Very Boss, Very Bombe et Very Pan Pan), three colours, a retail price between 149 and 169 Euros. Already well distributed in France, Very French Gangsters is now developing at an international level. Available at Littlefashiongallery.com.

Very French Gangsters will also be present at Playtime (Paris) and Pitti Bimbo (Florence, Italy).

Florence Rolando (journalist, co-founder of Bubble Trade Shows) was the original Founder of Pirouette in early 2009. Pirouette blog* has been a reference in the industry since it started with its combined business and consumer view of the children’s market. A fantastic resource for children’s fashion, design, trends and culture, it aims to support creativity and talent but it also does this by talking about life, family, culture and health.

Florence is an international leader in the industry (8 years as a Milk Collaborator, contributor to Naif Magazine in Spain, co-founder of Bubble Trade Shows in New York and London).
