There has been a lot of news this week surrounding the 2012 resort season, not least of which was the news I learned at a Neiman Marcus event that Rachel Zoe's Resort 2012 line will be carried at all 41 Neiman Marcus stores and online, as well as at Bergdorf Goodman (owned by Neiman). Reportedly flowing summer dresses flowing summer dresses, Shopbop, Nordstrom, v neck sleeveless black dress Saks, Intermix, and Kirna Zabete will also stock the line which is "so major" (as Zoe would say) for a new designer. Here's a recap of what else went down this week (see here for a look at Rachel Zoe's line).

M Missoni : Angela Missoni has been quite the busy bee – what with designing a 400 piece collection for Target and all – so it’s perhaps little surprise that she showed a collection inspired by a staple Missoni period, the Sixties. Let’s just hope color blocking, stripes, and bright colors are just as on-trend when this collection hits stores as they are now.

Gucci : Few do jet-setting resort chic as well as Gucci and this season Frida Giannini turned to the glamorous women of the Fifties and Sixties for inspiration — think pleating, color blocking, and gold sequins. Note that while color blocking is a trend heavy in the current Gucci collection, for Resort 2012 Giannini opted for more subdued colors.

A couple of months back, Lisa posted about a push-up bikini top sold by Abercrombie Kids, a store that targets kids ages 7-14. It led to a lively discussion, here and elsewhere, about the sexualization of young girls as well as socialization into beauty standards from a young age; eventually Abercrombie pulled the product from their website.

Leontine G. sent in a link to an image of a dress from the Metropolitan Museum of Art website that puts that debate into some historical context. While you might expect this to be a woman’s formal ball gown formal ball gown , they believe it was actually for a young girl:

From the description (which seems to focus on the U.S. and Europe, though this isn’t specified):

Until the last quarter of the eighteenth century, children were dressed as miniature adults bridal gowns 2011 bridal gowns 2011, with girls being put into corseted bodices from about three years of age, graduating to adult dress when they reached twelve or thirteen.

Starting in the late 1770s, new, looser clothing styles for children became popular, along with new ideas about childhood innocence and the necessity of separating children from the cares of the adult world. The Met provides a link to the 1796 painting The Sackville Children, by John Hoppner, as an example of the new style:

As the Met’s discussion of the formal child’s dress explains, adult fashions eventually followed the trend in children’s clothing, leading to looser, less constricting clothing with fewer layers.
