This Season’s 52 Cutest Gifts for Children

Until this year, parents were limited to a combination of mass retailers and brick and mortars if they wanted to crank out their holiday shopping for their littles.

When shopping for ourselves, we're inundated with editorially curated sites from Net-a-Porter and Farfetch to Moda Operandi — making holiday shopping simple. The luxury kids industry, however, lacked the same kind of aggregated online marketplace, making shopping for your kids a never-ending game of hide and seek.

Frustrated by their own experiences shopping as mothers, long-time friends and former Vogue editors Sylvana Ward Durrett and Luisana Mendoza de Roccia launched luxury children’s e-tailer Maisonette, an expertly curated site for all things mini.

From clothing and accessories to home decor and toys, Maisonette is the one-stop-shop for hard-to-find children’s brands and independent boutiques from all over the world. So close out the 16 tabs you have open and spare yourself the trip to Toys ”R” Us this holiday season because you won’t find any of these gifts there.

Below, Sylvana and Luisana share their favorite picks for this season's best kids' gifts, all available on Maisonette.com.
