Replete with tropical and tribal inspired motifs, the Spring/Summer 2015 pieces, meant for both boys and girls, were crafted from lightweight silk, chiffon and guipure lace fabrics. Based on sorbet hues of turquoise, mint and strawberry, the featured ensembles were decorated with fringes, crystals, beads, intricate embroidery and fruity prints.
 
Italian womenswear brand Miss Blumarine featured an array of flower print adorned summer dresses for little girls whereas label Monanalisa opted to showcase its maples and brightly-coloured azaleas printed tiny ensembles.
