Suri. Shiloh. Violet. Apple. Don’t be embarrassed—I love ‘em, too. I may not be ready for a kid of my own, but today’s baby craze—crazy as it is—has me totally enthralled. We see pictures of these kids all the time on blogs and in magazines; I get press releases about the designers they’re wearing; heck, even in the recession, the billion-dollar baby industry is reported to be thriving. So it was only a matter of time before the little bambinos got their own Sartorialist-esque site,
Planet Awesome Kid, devoted to the chicest of the chic.
Wait a sec. Do kids really need their own Sartorialist? Well, maybe not. But when the site’s founders, casting director Julia Samersova Adler and Women Model Management booker Christiana Tran, saw the hip threads the prepubescent set rocks these days, they decided to pay their tribute. “The idea for the site came to me one afternoon while chilling in the park with my baby daughter. I noticed all the fierce, cool, awesome kids all around,” Samersova Adler explains. She and Tran take most of the pictures themselves, but they do accept submissions as well. Their only rule: “We do not discriminate. Every child is a star—if they’re in the right outfit!” (To wit, many photos are accompanied by fashion credits.) And before the frivolity brigade charges in, let’s note that PAK helps to raise awareness for a very good cause: Global Action for Children. Its U.S. chairwoman? Shiloh’s mom.
