Submit Your Kids' Art Now!

Yesterday we found out Poloppo was accepted into the highly exclusive and uber-hip kidswear trade show "Bubble" New York (and London!) for the Fall/Winter 2008 season.

Our current line is still fresh and somewhat season-neutral; everyone wears Ts year-round and you can choose long or short sleeves. This is probably a subconscious product of living in San Francisco, where some of the coldest days you'll ever experience are smack bang in the middle of summer, and some of the hottest days can land in October or November.

We plan to continue our SF-friendly line of cross-season and cross-equator Ts and onesies indefinitely (of course we'll mix up the artwork). However we also plan to conform (just a tad!) to the Northern Hemisphere's seasonal fashion regime, and provide some new items to keep yourselves and your kiddliwinks toasty warm in the winter and cotton-cool in the summer.

Right now we're working on some fresh designs for Fall/Winter 2008 to add to the collection. What we need is some fresh artwork. We're especially interested in nature and environmental art - animals of any kind (especially endangered ones), trees, mountains, birds, fish, butterflies, insects ... all those beautiful things that remind us and our wee ones of why we need to be so conscious about what's happening to our planet.

So if you have a little Picasso in your midst - send us their masterpieces (in jpeg format by email - please don't post anything snailmail!). Email us here: submissions@poloppo.com ... We can't guarantee it'll be used in the designer line, but we can guarantee that it'll be put onto the Poloppo Online Gallery for the whole world to see within a few weeks!

One other piece of news: if you live in San Francisco or the Bay Area and would like to come and celebrate with some festive cheer, please feel free to join us for the Poloppo Holiday party on Dec 1st @ 66 Balmy Alley - 4-8pm for kiddie fun, 8 til late for grown-up fun. See you then!

Cherie
