London —Janie and Jack, the children’s design house known for its timeless take on fashion, is partnering with STUDIOCANAL Kids & Family Ltd. (SCKF) and its North American agent Retail Monster LLC, to introduce a limited-edition collection inspired by Paddington™.

Available now, the collection features more than 20 new styles across baby, girls and boys, spanning sizes from 0-3 months to 12 years. The assortment brings together heritage-inspired prints, polished separates, cosy knitwear, outerwear and accessories, translating Paddington’s adventurous spirit, kindness and curiosity into a contemporary childrenswear collection designed for today’s families.

Drawing inspiration from classic British style and the storybook world of London’s Windsor Gardens, the collection reinterprets Paddington’s most recognisable design signatures, including his duffle coat, red hat and suitcase, through refined prints, thoughtful textures and elevated craftsmanship. Classic London motifs and playful details further bring the character’s world to life, creating pieces intended to become lasting wardrobe favourites and heirlooms for generations to come.

The collaboration taps into the nostalgia many parents in the U.S. have for Paddington while introducing his story and enduring values of kindness, curiosity and adventure to a new generation. For Janie and Jack, the partnership reflects the brand’s ongoing commitment to celebrating meaningful family moments and the traditions created around them.

“Paddington has been bringing families together through storytelling for generations, which made this a particularly meaningful collaboration for Janie and Jack,” said Alison Stiefel, Chief Marketing Officer at Janie and Jack. “We wanted to create a collection that feels true to everything families love about Paddington while giving them a beautiful way to celebrate both everyday moments and special traditions together.”

Lexi Tawes, Chief Product Officer at Janie and Jack, added: “Paddington’s style has always been timeless, making him a natural inspiration for Janie and Jack. We thoughtfully reimagined the details that generations have come to love—from his distinctly British character and classic duffle coat to the warmth and whimsy of his adventures—through elevated prints, refined tailoring and exceptional craftsmanship. The result is a collection that feels both nostalgic and modern, designed to be loved today and passed down for years to come.”

The collection will be supported by an integrated campaign spanning social, influencer, retail and experiential activations, all tracing Paddington’s journey from London to America.

The Paddington x Janie and Jack collection launched 24th August in-stores and online. As part of the launch, Janie and Jack’s Brookfield Place store in Manhattan will be transformed on 26th September, with London-inspired touches celebrating the collaboration. The activation will invite press and families to experience the collection in person, meet Paddington and be among the first to shop the assortment in-store.
