Toi et Moi ‘La Première fois’ Summer 2011 Collection

Celebrate the ‘first’ moments in life again with the Toi et Moi Summer 2011 collection. Flirty dresses, fun tops and cute rompers are all elements of the fabulous summer collection appropriately named ‘La Première fois’ (the first time). Inspired by a montage of photos spanning 3 decades of her life, designer Gill Lawrence has created a collection based on the clothes that have defined those ‘first’ moments.

She used the colours and patterns associated with those memories surrounding her first tears, first day of school, first love to inspire a wide range of items. The range is bright and colourful with playful prints and sure to spark new ‘firsts’ for wearers.

Of course Gill has styled these designs with her trademark Parisian chic twist, but has kept the collection youthful and fresh. Always the trendsetters, the Toi et Moi ‘La Première fois’ collection is a little bit french, a little bit street and a whole lot of amazing!
