The San Francisco Chronicle gives Insight into what's to come for Gymbo

A great article in Sunday's Chronicle gave insight as to what to expect from Gymboree later this year. It focused on a little girl fit model and zeroed in on her experience working for Gymboree. Says the Chronicle:

For the next 90 minutes, she tried on a dozen or so prototypes for next season and beyond: lots of jeans and basic T-shirts; a leopard swimsuit; a winter coat with a faux fur collar; two party dresses; a skirt; a couple of sweaters and for the finale, a dramatic white astronaut jumpsuit Halloween costume, all part of the Kid Girl line.

When she emerged from the dressing room in a dressy red sweater with a big collar and black and white velvet ribbon trim, she looked uncomfortable, instinctively tugging at the bulky collar, a cross between a cowl and a turtleneck...."Let's bring it back to a turtleneck." And so, this winter, the red sweater will be on the racks in its new incarnation.

Lily tried on a lavender quilted corduroy skirt and smiled. Perfect. She tried skinny dark denim jeans with a zip at the ankle and star appliqués on the back pockets.

The article also had pictures- a leopard print swimsuit, dark washed jeans with a bright pink belt, a color-block dress reminiscent of Janie & Jack's Aviary, a red and black plaid dress, a long black coat, and a double-sleeved shirt with colors similar to last year's Winter Snowflake but with the word "LOVE" emblazoned across the chest.
