Les Petits Chapelais
On an organic farm named Les Petits Chapelais in the heart of Brittany, the ever-growing
Simonneaux Family (with 64 first cousins and over 100 grandchildren) symbolizes the magic
found in the memories of successive generations.
The weathercock, along with the cow
overlooking her baby, further represents the affection between generations on the farm.
Drawing on this as both muse and inspiration, children's and woman's clothing designer,
Nathalie Simonneaux, organically integrates color, form and volume, while searching for
the harmony between body and earth. At twenty, she designed costumes for dance, theatre, opera, Le Cirque du Soleil, and Le
Theatre du Soleil d'Ariane Mouchkine. For her children’s line, Nathalie Simonneaux focuses on
using untreated and organic fabrics; the freshest cottons, fleece and wools.
"...the storybook essence of children at play: creative, free, in love with color, movement & comfort. "
In an age of logo-crazy design, Simonneaux's work also provides a whimsical counter statement that
champions the storybook essence of children at play: creative, free, in love with color, movement and
comfort. High quality materials and original designs make the collections comfy, yet chic; funky, yet elegant.
Children slip into the clothes mischievously, delighting in details such as pom-poms, pointed hoods, patches,
poncho pockets, reversible cuffs and collars, as well as colorful fringes that evoke playfulness and fancy.
Superbe!
