SmileyWorld is pleased to announce it has entered into a new partnership with Chinese licensee Yihua. This is the first major release from SmileyWorld into the Chinese apparel market, and the designs went down a storm at a fashion show to launch the collection in Shanghai on Saturday 22nd March.
The AW14 collection will be aimed at men and women who want stylish, comfortable and casual clothing. From sweaters and hoodies to leggings and jeans, the new collection uses a muted colour palette of black, grey and white, with colour pops provided from the Smiley face. For the more adventurous customer, jumpers and t-shirts printed with all-over smiley faces in bright yellow stand out.
The smiley face has been altered and reworked in a range of different emoticons across the entire collection, each design representing one of the many expressive icons that make up the ‘Express Yourself’ Smiley World collection.
Launching in 50 department stores around China this summer as shop-in-shops, Smiley also plan to open 150 freestanding Smiley World stores in China within 5 years.
Fun, quirky and stylish clothing is just around the corner!

It’s official that the Smiley face tote bag is the must have accessory for every IT girl this summer, according to the Daily Mail on the 16th March 2014.
Celebrity favourite designer Anya Hindmarch has teamed up with Smiley to produce the most luxurious tote bag on the high street for her A-list fans.
The Happy Shopper Tote has turned the ‘convenience bag’ into the ultimate fashion statement for 2014. The tote bag was originally designed for carrying groceries from the supermarket, however Hindmarch and Smiley have given this high street staple a fashion makeover and a celebrity price tag (£2,500) that will ensure it remains exclusive.
The Happy Shopper Tote is inspired by a passion for finding the beauty in the banal, a super luxurious take on the classic shopping bag. Crafted from printed python skin, it’s lined in soft suede with hand-painted edges. The short handles offer a more modern way to wear it, either hand held or over your arm.
The bag first caught the fashion world’s attention at Anya Hindmarch’s SS14 catwalk show back in September last year and just as it goes on sale, it’s being tipped by the fashion glitterati to be this season’s IT bag.
There are still many bag licensing opportunities available with Smiley this season, so don’t miss your chance to get involved in the hottest trend for 2014.
