NEW YORK / PARIS - French luxury childrenswear Maison Bonpoint is proud to announce an exclusive collaboration with The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
MoMA is committed to inspiring younger generations, while Bonpoint celebrates art, culture, and the beauty of childhood. This collaboration between the iconic New York cultural institution and the Parisian Maison brings together two worlds united by a shared belief in the power of creativity through the work of Claude Monet, one of France’s greatest Impressionist artists. The collaboration was facilitated by MoMA’s licensing agency, IMG Licensing.
The capsule collection invites children to step into a great work of art and discover the world with a sense of wonder and creative freedom. Reinterpreting Monet’s timeless vision through a contemporary children’s wardrobe, the capsule seamlessly bridges artistic heritage and modern elegance.
Entitled “An Impressionist Wardrobe”, the capsule draws its inspiration from one of MoMA’s most celebrated and beloved paintings: Claude Monet’s Water Lilies (1914–26). Painted during the artist’s later years in his garden at Giverny, the monumental canvas captures shifting light, vibrant reflections, and the fluid beauty of nature, dissolving the boundaries between reality and abstraction. This dreamlike universe finds a natural resonance in Bonpoint’s world, where timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship have long celebrated the imagination of childhood.
“MoMA is committed to creating meaningful and unexpected ways for audiences to connect with extraordinary works of art in our collection. Through this collaboration with Bonpoint, Claude Monet’s Water Lilies becomes a new point of discovery for children and families, extending the experience of the painting beyond the Museum and into everyday life,” says Jesse Goldstine, Chief Retail Officer at MoMA.
“For nearly fifty years, Bonpoint has celebrated childhood through exceptional craftsmanship and a world shaped by beauty, culture, and imagination. Collaborating with MoMA felt like a natural fit. By bringing one of Claude Monet's most iconic masterpieces to life in this collection, we hope to inspire children to dream, explore, and nurture their natural curiosity through art”, says Gala Sarmini Kressmann, Chief Marketing & Digital Officer at Bonpoint.
The exclusive capsule comprises 16 pieces for children from 6 months to 14 years, including three designs for babies and seven ready-to-wear silhouettes for girls, complemented by a selection of accessories.
Bonpoint’s signature silhouettes become living canvases, translating Monet’s delicate palette of ethereal blues, soft greens, and subtle pinks into poetic garments enriched with exquisite craftsmanship. At the heart of the collection stands the iconic Duchesse dress, a true statement piece rendered in the hues of the painting and adorned with meticulously hand-embroidered smocking that showcases Bonpoint’s unparalleled savoir-faire.
The collection is completed by Bonpoint’s iconic Cherry Doll, specially dressed in her own miniature Duchesse dress. A thoughtful range of accessories extends the story, including a suitcase bag wrapped in the luminous shades of Monet’s Water Lilies and delicate hair accessories designed to complete each silhouette.
The Bonpoint and MoMA capsule collection is available for a limited time exclusively on bonpoint.com and in a selection of Bonpoint boutiques worldwide.
Prices range from €30 to €365.
