Designer Caitlin Wilson Launches Her First Children’s Collection on April 23

Dallas designer Caitlin Wilson has become synonymous with cheerful prints, patterns, and colors. Wilson’s designs initially appear preppy and all-American, with palettes of baby blues, blush pinks, and creams. Take a closer look, though. Wilson spent years abroad as her career blossomed, and her work reflects the influence of her travels, from chinoiserie wallpaper to French-inspired furniture.

Wilson’s mission has always been to create beautiful, yet livable designs, the sort that can stand up to the wear and tear of a family’s daily life. Now, she’s taking things a step further. Cait Kids, a new line designed specifically for children, is releasing later this month.

The first collection includes rugs, pillows, bedding, furniture, wall art, and more. Price points are relatively accessible: rugs start at $148 and pillows at $88.

“As a mother of 4, I am always looking for beautiful products that are sweet and classic but have enough personality to feel fun for kids,” says Wilson. “There is something so rewarding about creating a children’s bedroom … It feels like it’s worth every effort to foster imagination and create a safe haven for these precious little people.”

Designing for children can be difficult. How does one celebrate their interests while maintaining an elevated aesthetic? Cait Kids offers a stylish solution. Its understated prints incorporate childhood pastimes in a chic, not garish, way. One print includes sailboats, for example, while another features horses and jockeys. The collection is ideal for mixing and matching; solid bedding can complement patterned wallpaper and vice versa.

Unlike most to-the-trade designer lines, Cait Kids is a direct-to-consumer brand. Wilson’s Henderson Avenue showroom will stock Cait Kids pieces in the future; for now, shop online at caitkids.com.
