Animalesque - a unique and independent costume brand for all those wild little creatures who love to dress up! Founded by artist and textile designer Sara Lowes, Animalesque inspires creative play and helps to bring narrative to life through costume, capturing a sense of wonder and reconnecting children with their innate gift, and fundamental need, to imagine.
Animalesque combines Sara’s expertise in textile design - illustration, screen-print and embroidery - with her experience as a children’s storyteller, to produce playful costumes and accessories, rich with colour, texture and character. Using a diverse range of fabrics, often recycled or collected on various travels, Sara lovingly produces her collectable creations in her London studio.
Junior Edition is a family owned children's concept store in Brighton, UK, established in 2015. We focus on small-batch design and ethical production, stocking a curated selection of beautiful heirloom brands and products for babies and children from newborn to age 13: from clothing, shoes and accessories to design-led toys, books and crafts. In 2020 we extended our selection to include womenswear and lifestyle products for the whole family.
