For those who have a Mervyns in their area, their Sprockets label is, er, "paying homage" to the MiniBoden applique tee look for girls for $6. I saw it in an ad, not the store, so I don't know the quality.

More interesting to a devoted follower of children's fashion (me) is how quickly that particular MiniBoden look got adapted by other retailers. I believe Babygap recently had some tees with that style as well: butterflies and flowers with a crafty, raw edge.

Boys' lines don't seem to follow yet, they still have that All-American mini-man vibe. MiniBoden boys is just great IMO, fun and spirited that perfectly rides that elusive tightrope of being young for boys - not minimen - but not too cutesy.

Those are cute! I've never even heard of Mervyns but I had to check it out. LOL

Wow, the green and purple ones are almost identical to the ones from MB last year.
