Fiona Kowalski is the warm, funny, super-stylish founder of children’s clothing label Printebebe (pronounced print baby) – an adorable collection printed smock dresses, blouses and bloomers.

Her career has seen her travel full-circle, starting out as a designer then moving into the role of fashion editor and stylist for many years in Hong Kong, New Zealand, London and Australia. It was the birth of her daughter Gidget (now 2) however, that inspired her move back into designing.

“I started Printebebe because I wanted to create affordable children’s clothing that was pretty and easy to wear. It has been fun, more hard work than I ever imagined, but so rewarding too”.

I love the delicate sweetness of these fine gold Claire Aristides bracelets…

1. Yellow Gold Diamond Love Heart bracelet, $395
2. ‘Love’ Bracelet 9 Carat Yellow Gold bracelet, $245
3. Diamond Snowflake Bracelet 9k Yellow Gold bracelet, $225
4. Yellow Gold Diamond Star bracelet, $395

Prints are everywhere – graphic, floral, retro, animal.

My favourite however would have to be the digital print. It’s like having a brand new box of crayons. This technology means designer can now incorporate virtually any artwork or image into their collections. Some of my favourites can be found at Mary Katrantzou and Peter Pilotto.

And so it was armed with this love that I styled todays fashion shoot, featuring some pieces from Ruby Sees Alls’s awesome acid print series.
