Father’s Day Feature Part 1: Just Like Dad

María Montane and friend stylist Patricia Cedeno have been missing their work and seeing the children so much that during the pandemic the ladies have been setting challenges with mini models around the world. To date the ladies have carried out a ‘Mothers Day’ and an ‘Emoji challenge’ and now we are so lucky to be able to share the ‘Father’s Day’ Challenge here on Junior Style.

‘Styling and direction is something that we are very used to and we have been indoors for so long during the pandemic that we want to keep our minds busy and active! We love how creative they are and it’s kind of therapeutic to us’ – María Montane

The children were asked to show their ‘Just Like Dad’ look and sent a pdf with some Inspiration boards, styling ideas, directions and suggestions to help them create their look. We just love the creativity and the fun the children have clearly had creating the images.  Read below why the children love their dads so much………..

Big shout out to all the Father’s out there!  Wishing you a wonderful Father’s Day on Sunday 21st!
