Difuzed, Sagoo France and JimmyPaul have released a high-end fashion collection for French retail chain, The Galeries Lafayette.

The pastel-colored apparel line is produced by merchandiser,

, and marks the first retail release for JimmyPaul since the debut of his

Care Bears 40th anniversary couture dress at last year’s Brand Licensing Europe

“With this collection, now to be sold at Galeries Lafayette, it truly is a fashion dream come true,” says Jimmy Paul. “While I was working on the collection, the Care Bears made me smile and reminded me how fun it is to create.”

“Collaborations with fashion designers such JimmyPaul allow us to create halo events with great visibility for the many brands that we work with,” says Gustavo Antonioni, general manager, Difuzed. “Having a showcase at Galeries Lafayette is the result of a great marriage between the globally recognized Care Bears and the creativity of JimmyPaul. We supplied the product through our partnership with Creator Studio which

allows us to bring to market extremely high-end print-on-demand product, perfect for events such as this with no inventory risk for the retailer or MOQ requirements for suppliers.”

The collection is inspired by the original illustrations, which pay homage to the

Care Bears

paintings by Elena Kucharik and expresses the Care Bears story in pastel rainbow-colored pieces.
