BUY CURIOUS: PUNK ROCK BABY BIBS
Do you want it? Or need it? Depends.
MiniMANIACS “Bling Bling” bibs might not snag your precious drool bucket a Guinness World Record like rapper Lil Jon and his $500,000 “Crunk Ain’t Dead” diamond necklace, but they will make your little one look like a rock star—and for a hell of a lot less.
When Seal Beach designer Theresa Miraglia couldn’t stomach draping frou-frou “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” bibs onto her daughter Violet, she took her frustration out on a sewing machine. The result is a killer line of punk rock inspired “slurp and burp” sets. Finally, a cool consolation prize for those of us who breed and feed (and those who spit up).
Miraglia’s handmade crumb catchers aren’t cutesy; they’re stylish op-eds on pop culture—big cotton/pleather bibs that knock out pastel overkill and outlast spastic eaters and multiple washes. There are glam chains and dollar signs; dice and martini glasses; chopsticks and plastic sushi; safety pins and zippers with no other function than fashion, tucked neatly (and safely) behind clear vinyl. You won’t find bibs with names like these at babyGap: “Ahhh So,” “Tat-2-You,” “Skulls and Roses,” “G-Dog,” and more.
Gwen Stefani dug the “Bondage Baby” bib so much she put one on backstage. Not on baby Kingston—on herself. Other celeb MiniMANIACS clients include drummer Travis Barker of +44/Blink 182 and actress Rosanna Arquette. And when your offspring finally masters saliva control, upgrade to Miraglia’s neo-vintage concert flyer tees, featuring iron-ons of the Dead Kennedys, the Ramones, the Misfits and Social Distortion.
Forget what Kanye said. Bling is for babies. $22-28
