Their first collection A/W08 will be launched in shops this Autumn Winter 2008 in Denmark, Sweden, Norway and United Kingdom. Soft Gallery has created a unique and different kind of children’s label based on a collaboration with local and international artists, commissioned to create artworks that will be displayed on Soft Gallery´s design. Each season Soft Gallery will represent a range of new artists. The idea is to produce exclusive clothes for children who are not afraid to stand out from the crowd and who appreciate wearing design of a deeper meaning. The challenge is to stimulate and open the eyes of a child to a different world of creativity and to broaden the way of thinking. The artwork and designs do not follow a specific fashion trend but reflect, the time we live in right now. Soft Gallery emerged through their own interest in art and a general interest in the mind and visions of other creative and talented people and the idea of sharing these thoughts. Through this collaboration Soft Gallery achieve a different and innovative children’s designer line. Soft Gallery’s luxurious children’s’ range comes in two categories: Baby 0-2 years and 2-12 years For futher information please visit www.softgallery.dk PRESS RELEASE JANUARY 2008 SOFT GALLERY – International art in children level Children can now look forward to wearing art on their bodies when Soft Gallery launch their new range of childrens’ clothing at the Fashion Fair in February 2008.
