Trendy and traditional: Little avurudu kits for kids
View(s):With its reputation for festive outfits that are a cut above the rest, Tropic Of Linen has earned a name as the go-to destination for Avurudu kids wear. The new 2023 Avurudu collection features not just one-of-a-kind designs, but also incorporates a ‘play’ element in all of its two-piece sets.
For the little ladies, Tropic Of Linen has taken the classic redde and hatte designs and spun them into a collection of outfits that pay homage to the beauty and charm of traditional Sri Lankan fashion, while still being perfectly on-trend.
The auspicious ‘multi-colour’ theme for this year was what influenced designer Minha Akram to seek inspiration from the vibrant butterfly, with its beautiful myriad of colour. “We wanted to create something different, while also bringing a sense of play to our outfits,” she said. Butterflies are spirited, light, fun, and filled with beauty in every combination of colour. So, we created very wearable, play-centred outfits by building in beautiful 3D butterfly wings on to the backs of the tops, resulting in a cross between costume and everyday clothing.”
Tropic Of Linen has not forgotten the little gents of course, with sarong-shirt sets featuring lively and contemporary prints. For the toddler age group the sarongs come in fun prints, while the older ‘big boys’ can rock more modern and edgy motifs with space-inspired sets. Even unleash their inner dinosaur with some rock n’ roaring outfits. Easy-to-wear expandable hidden belts come built in to each sarong, so both kids and parents feel secure in knowing the sarong will hold up to all play!
Tropic of Linen’s store is at #1 Wijerama Mawatha, Colombo 7.
