Desigual Kids: Colorful Girls' Clothing in Cyprus
If your daughter has ever raided your wardrobe trying to grab the loudest print she could find, Desigual's kids line might save your closet (and make her day). The Barcelona brand that built its name on patchwork denim and saturated color now offers a dedicated girls' collection with the same bold DNA, scaled down for ages 4 to 14.
Here's what's actually available in Cyprus right now, what it costs, and which pieces are worth the price.
Why parents choose Desigual for kids
Three things separate Desigual kids' clothing from the standard fast-fashion children's options you'll find at H&M or Zara:
The prints. Desigual doesn't tone down its patterns for children. The girls' range features the same hand-drawn aesthetic, layered florals, and saturated colour palettes from the women's line, just adapted for shorter hemlines and more movement. These are clothes kids actually get excited about wearing.
The "mini-me" concept. Several pieces each season mirror designs from the adult women's collection. Mother-daughter matching outfits aren't staged; they're built into the line. The brand has consistently featured this pairing since introducing its kids range, and it remains one of their strongest retail hooks.
Disney collaborations. Desigual holds Disney licensing for its kids' line, producing Lilo & Stitch pieces that blend the brand's signature graphic style with characters kids actually want to wear. It's not a slapped-on logo. The Disney motifs get the full Desigual print treatment.
The fabrics are predominantly cotton-based (often 95% cotton / 5% elastane), which means machine-washable at 30°C. Parents dealing with playground dirt and lunch stains: this matters more than the print.
What's available on Stylino
We currently track 44 Desigual girls' items across retailers that ship to Cyprus. Here's the breakdown:
| Category | Items | Price range |
|---|---|---|
| Dresses | 20 | €61 – €82 |
| T-shirts | 10 | €42 – €82 |
| Jackets | 2 | €82 – €102 |
| Pants | 2 | €58 – €82 |
| Shorts | 2 | €37 – €72 |
| Skirts | 1 | €68 |
| Tights | 2 | €16 – €39 |
| Hoodies | 1 | €72 |
The bulk of the collection sits in the €41–€82 bracket. That's pricier than Zara Kids (typically €15–€35) but cheaper than premium children's brands like Bonpoint or Petit Bateau. For what you get (unique prints that won't show up on every kid in the playground) the premium feels justified.
Spartoo carries the full kids' range available in Cyprus. Prices tend to stay stable since there's currently a single retailer with stock, but that also means the Desigual hub on Stylino is the quickest way to spot the occasional discount.
Top picks for girls
Everyday dresses
Desigual's girls' dresses run from simple A-line cuts with bold prints to more structured designs with layered details. At €61 per piece, the simpler styles are a solid entry point: they're the pieces that survive a full school day and still look presentable at a family dinner.
Graphic tees
The t-shirts are where the brand's artistic DNA is most accessible for younger shoppers. Starting at €42, they pair with plain jeans or shorts for an instant outfit that requires zero styling effort from parents. The multicolour prints are distinctive enough that kids feel they're wearing something special.
Statement piece: the jacket
At €102, the girls' jackets are the investment piece of the kids' range. They work as outerwear for Cyprus's mild winters (October through March) and double as statement layers over simple outfits during cooler evenings. The blue denim-style jacket with Desigual's signature colour pops is probably the most versatile option.
Kids' sizing guide
Desigual children's clothing follows standard EU sizing by age:
| Age | EU Size | Height (cm) |
|---|---|---|
| 3–4 | 104 | 98–104 |
| 5–6 | 116 | 110–116 |
| 7–8 | 128 | 122–128 |
| 9–10 | 140 | 134–140 |
| 11–12 | 152 | 146–152 |
| 13–14 | 164 | 158–164 |
Unlike the women's collection (which runs notoriously small), the kids' line follows standard EU children's sizing. A child who wears age 7–8 in Zara Kids will typically fit the same age bracket in Desigual. The cotton/elastane blends provide some stretch, making the fit more forgiving than the fitted adult pieces.
One thing to watch: Desigual's dresses for girls tend to be slightly shorter than some European brands. If your daughter is tall for her age, consider sizing up for dresses and skirts specifically.
A note about boys' clothing
Desigual's kids range is almost exclusively girls' clothing. The brand does not currently offer a meaningful boys' line. Its identity revolves around bold florals and mixed prints that the brand markets squarely at girls and women. On Stylino, all 44 tracked kids' items are from the girls' category.
If you're looking for colourful boys' clothing with personality, the brand's adult men's line has only 5 items on Stylino. Backpacks are the most practical option for older boys.
What makes Desigual kids worth considering in Cyprus
Living on an island where fast-fashion chains dominate children's clothing, finding something distinctive requires looking beyond the high street. Desigual's kids line fills a gap: it's bold enough to stand out at a birthday party in Limassol or a school event in Nicosia, durable enough for daily wear, and available for delivery to Cyprus through Spartoo without any customs headaches.
The brand's corporate profile highlights their commitment to BCI cotton and sustainable materials, which increasingly matters to parents choosing where to spend €60+ on a children's dress.
Compare prices across the full collection on the Desigual. If something catches your eye, don't overthink it. These pieces move faster than the adult line.
Frequently asked questions
Does Desigual make boys' clothing?
Very limited. The brand's DNA is built around bold florals and mixed prints marketed primarily at girls and women. On Stylino, all 44 tracked kids' items are girls' clothing. The brand occasionally produces unisex accessories (backpacks) but no substantial boys' apparel line.
What age range does Desigual kids cover?
Typically 3 to 14 years (EU sizes 104–164). The bulk of the collection targets the 5–12 age bracket, with the largest selection in dresses and t-shirts.
Are Desigual kids' clothes durable?
Yes. The cotton-based fabrics (95% cotton / 5% elastane on most pieces) hold up well to machine washing at 30°C and active wear. The printed patterns don't fade noticeably with proper care: wash inside out, cold, no tumble dryer.
How much does Desigual kids' clothing cost in Cyprus?
Most pieces range from €42 to €82, with jackets reaching €102. Tights and sale items start from €16. Compared to Zara Kids, expect to pay roughly double, but you get unique prints and better fabric weight.
Can I return Desigual kids' items bought through Spartoo?
Yes. Spartoo offers 30-day returns on all items including kids' clothing. Since there's no physical Desigual kids' store in Cyprus, this is effectively your try-on window.
