Style your toddler Victorian @ Liti Enfant

Ever get bored of how modern fashion labels extend their lines to include toddler wear so that your entire family looks like they just walked out of their latest catalogue? Well this week, Good Shop takes a step against the grain - No, in fact a leap back in time to the era when children's fashion was an image of the family's name and being seen in public with exquisitely tailored clothing shows how much care the mother took in ensuring the best for their children. Yes, it may be frumpy for some, but for the Victorian class, there is nothing more satisfying than to see their boys and girls ready for an afternoon tea party and a game of croquet.



LITI EMBROIDERY & ANTIQUES
76E Le Thanh Ton St, Dist1 HCMC

Welcome to Liti Enfant. Located a few steps away from the city hall, off the main road of Dong Khoi, on a street where modern office buildings takes another bite out of remaining French colonial architecture everyday, a lady has carved herself a niche with a boutique dedicated to French colonial living!


Where do we start? How about a cute little brown button-up jacket for the boy or slim chocolate striped baby doll dress with a matching bow for the girl topped off with a fluffy bear in her arms? Or perhaps beige cloth napkins and cream laced sheer nightgown for an old world sensuality. (Perhaps hubby might appreciate the sudden departure from red corsets) And if you're in the midst of redecorating your home, why not pick a nice polished oak cupboard with grated glass to set a delectable contrast with your wall mounted LCD screen?

To prepare for that perfect dinner with your family, how about some white china to lay that exquisite tenderloin your father-in-law have been raving about. Take some time off for yourself too and complete your look with a classic jeweled wrist watch and glass necklaces before you settle in for a truly Victorian evening dinner.

When you're done living out such an envious vintage day, know that every piece of Liti that you bring home will be handed over with pride to your children and theirs for generations to come. Happy shopping to all this week and be sure to check back in next week for more Good Shops!
