# Luxurious Kids Clothing Lines The 'Balmain Kids' Line is Inspired by the High-End Designer Label By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2016-01-26 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balmain-kids References: [bustle](http://www.bustle.com/articles/137683-when-is-balmain-kids-coming-out-the-fab-label-debuts-north-west-inspired-line-photos) & [vogue](http://www.vogue.com/13391520/balmain-kids-collection-olivier-rousteing-interview/?mbid=social_twitter_vr) Designer Olivier Rousteing recently announced plans for a [Balmain Kids line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hunter-bell) that would provide pint-size fashionistas with the same kind of high-end garments produced by his label. After the designers highly-anticipated collaboration with [H&M](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paddington), it seems that Rousteing is eager to tackle a different demographic. The Rousteing line was originally inspired by Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's daughter [North](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skims-x-cactus-plant-flea-market). As Rousteing explains, "I had a conversation with Kim, and that was the beginning of how I really understood that the Balmain universe can also belong to kids." As a result, the famed designer has created 55 pieces for fashion-conscious kids. These pieces boast the same military glam aesthetic as the Balmain label, but with age-appropriate details. The new line is ideal for style-conscious parents who want to dress their children in equally luxurious garments. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 84% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxuryfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxurious Kids Clothing:** Opportunity for designers to create high-end, age-appropriate clothing for fashion-conscious kids. - **Designer-inspired Kids Clothing:** Opportunity to cater to parents who want their children dressed in high-end designer garments. - **Fashion for Pint-size Fashionistas:** Opportunity to tap into the demand for luxury clothing among young kids. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Children's Clothing:** Opportunity for children's clothing brands to incorporate high-end designer aesthetics into their collections. - **Luxury Fashion:** Opportunity for luxury fashion brands to expand their target audience by creating children's clothing lines. - **Fashion Retail:** Opportunity for fashion retailers to offer high-end designer clothing options for kids. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Children-Catered Luxe Festive Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-holiday.md) - [Cult Film-Inspired High Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-lion-king-collection.md) - [Familial Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loubifamily.md) - [Streetwear Experimental Kids Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ksubi-kids.md) - [Sleek Kid-Oriented Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/authentic-brands-group.md) - [Bear-Themed Baby Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paddington.md) - [Creativity-Driving Kids Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zara-2.md) - [Influencer-Led Kids Clothing Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gen-kids-clothing-brand.md) - [Dynamic Kids Fashion Capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frgmtmini.md)
