Children’s Show Takes Over New York with a Celebration of Creativity, Color, and Couture
New York, NY – July 27, 2025 — On July 27, the global kids’ fashion industry converged in New York City for a spectacular runway event as the Children’s Show lit up the city with its fourth edition — a dazzling tribute to creativity, talent, and childhood joy.
With the vibrant theme “Fashion is My Playground,” this season’s event was a colorful explosion of imagination, style, and playfulness, transforming the venue into a living canvas of self-expression and energy.

Top international brands unveiled their Spring/Summer 2026 collections to a captivated audience, including runway presentations from Roberto Cavalli, Monnalisa, Chloé, Lanvin, Balmain, Needle & Thread, and many more trailblazing names in children’s fashion.
The runway was expertly curated by Aleksandra Ataca, the visionary Creative Director and Editor-in-Chief of Junior Style, whose direction brought a cohesive yet delightfully playful narrative to life — where each look told a story and every child became the star of their own fashion fantasy.
