Totally not classic ID, but we were enthralled with Kakara's clothing for kids, spotted during Helsinki Design Week. Designer Merja Lamberg (who shares a sweet-and-funky studio space alonside designers Salla Eskola, Erja Hirvi, Jani Koivula, Katriina Lankinen, Naoto Niidome and Perhonen i.e. Mari Relander and Anna Katriina Tilli; Merja's fourth from the left in the image below) designs small-scale duds with exuberance and grace--two things that are tough to put together consistently. Her stuff is only in Finland for now (some fabrics come from Estonia), but you can check out her work at http://www.kakara.fi and beg her to ship to you on the feedback form. We were heartbroken when she didn't have the item above in the right size, but but that's what happens when your stuff's in demand. Or when your kid grows up too fast.
