Monday, 6 August 2012




You could easily spend three days soaking up the atmosphere of São Paulo and exploring its many districts, but for the best overview of inspiring kids' culture, we recommend that you spend your first day around Vila Madalena, your second day wandering around the Jardins, and your final day concentrating on the popular shopping malls. Read on for our store edit.

Founded by Luca Schiller in Brazil and Tinou Senoville in France in 2004, Petit Retro mixes the traditional influence of French clothing with the know-how of Brazilian handcrafting. The store (Joaquim Antunes, 501, Jardins) also offers lifestyle products such as children's room decor.
