A Very Special Day at the Junior Design Awards Winners' Brunch!

Yesterday was one of those lovely days that reminds us just how special it is to be part of the world of children’s fashion.

We headed to the Junior Design Awards brunch in London and what a wonderful morning it was. There was such a lovely atmosphere, with so many brilliant brands, designers and creative people coming together to celebrate everything that makes children’s fashion so special.

It was made even more memorable for us because we were there to celebrate three very special Rachel Riley wins!

🏆 PLATINUM – Best Heritage Children’s Fashion Brand

🏆 GOLD – Best Girl’s Fashion Collection

🏆 JOINT GOLD – Best UK Children’s Fashion Brand

We’re incredibly proud of these awards. Rachel Riley has always been about creating beautiful clothes that feel comfortable, smart and a little bit magical - pieces with wonderful fabrics, intricate details and timeless designs that can be passed down and treasured.

Behind every dress, coat and little pair of shoes is so much love and care. From our hand-smocking and embroidery to our signature prints and beautiful occasionwear, we’re passionate about keeping traditional craftsmanship alive while creating clothes that feel fresh and joyful for today’s little ones.

It was also lovely to have a chance for our team to catch up with friends and colleagues and celebrate with so many people we admire across the industry.

A huge thank you to the Junior Design Awards for recognising Rachel Riley and for such a beautiful brunch. 

Here’s to the little moments, the special occasions and all the beautiful memories made along the way.
