The new range will go on sale in September, with items priced from £7 to £45. Arcadia says the label promises “quality, value and style for the fashionistas of the future”.

Outfit Kids will be sold in selected Arcadia-owned Outfit stores, in a number of larger Dorothy Perkins & Burton stores, as well as online via the Dorothy Perkins, Burton and Wallis websites. There are also plans to wholesale to current and new partners globally.

“Launching a childrenswear range follows extensive customer research amongst families who shop across all the Arcadia brands, they told us that for their kids they wanted fun, stylish pieces that were good quality and that price was key. We listened, and delivered.” Mitch Hughes, buying director
