London, April 14 (Inditop.com) Italian fashion house Gucci will launch a children’s line in June. The first range will be unveiled in Italy and then hit around 40 stores worldwide.

Frida Giannini is the creative director of children wear. She is currently in Singapore where she announced her future plans and was honoured to have an orchid named after her, the Paravanda Frida.

“It was very touching and I loved the thought that the orchid will still be there a few hundred years from now. I have never experienced such an honour before,” femalefirst.co.uk quoted her as saying.
