And once acquired, it can last a lifetime. Givenchy, the designer known the world over for his excellence of taste and fine design, feels that it’s never too early to teach your children the rudiments of style and taste. And so he’s created a special group for children called Little Tantrums, to start them on their way. Little Tantrums The Little Tantrums collec­ tion by Givenchy consists of everything from casual dresses to active sport togs—all with that special sense of style that is particular to Givenchy. Velours are big One of the most important trends for spring 1979 in both adult and children’s fashions is terry velours, and Givenchy does it for his favorite children in French blue, poppy red, pow­ der peach, banana and bright white, in a super combo of 80% cotton and 20% polyester for practical mothers. The collec­ tion is designed to fit girls from sizes 3-6x through 7-14.
