Step one, in detail

Our collection

Thirty-two lines across our core shapes, each cut again and again in the same much-loved fits. Every one is a starting point, not a finished product.

Every piece below is a core shape. Pick the shapes you want, then pick the fabric each one is printed in.

Any shape can be cut in any of our prints, so the same dress is a different dress in a different cloth. The photograph on each card is one example, not the only way it comes.

Every card shows what you pay per piece and what it is meant to sell for, for each of the two printing processes.

Step three, in detail

Two beautiful ways to print

Both are done by hand, by the same workshops. They just give you different things.

A carved wooden block being struck onto a length of cotton by hand
one strike at a time
Our premium option

Hand blockprint

Traditional techniques. Timeless magic.

The design is carved by hand into a block of teak, one block per colour. The block is dipped in dye and struck onto the cloth, lined up against the last impression by eye. A two metre length takes hundreds of strikes.

  • Carved wooden blocks, one per colour
  • Printed by hand, one colour at a time
  • Rich in character with beautiful variations
  • A slower, traditional process
  • Every single piece is genuinely unique
Dye being pulled across a mesh screen by hand, printing a length of cotton
one pull, the whole repeat
A more accessible price

Screen print

Playful prints for bright futures.

The design is exposed onto a mesh screen, laid over the cloth and flooded with dye by hand. The screen carries the whole repeat at once, so a length that takes a block hundreds of strikes takes a handful of pulls.

  • Printed through a fine mesh screen
  • Crisp, vibrant colours
  • A more consistent repeat
  • Quicker, so perfect for larger orders
  • A wonderful, more accessible option

Screenprint costs less because it is quicker, not because it is lesser. Blockprint gives you the hand of the maker in every piece; screenprint gives you twenty dresses that match. Ask us which suits your order.

Our Genki story

Hi, I’m Camille

Founder of Genki

I grew up surrounded by textiles, rummaging through my French grandmother's wardrobe and cupboards filled with vivid silks, prints and beautiful old fabrics. As an artist, I've always been drawn to colour, pattern and handmade craft, particularly textile traditions that carry a real sense of history and place.

A trip to Rajasthan introduced me to the extraordinary world of hand block printing and the makers behind it. I began working with small independent tailors and fabric traders there, relationships that continue today. Learning about the artistic textile printing crafts, and small handmade clothing batches, I became passionate about creating quality and story-led clothing.

Genki was born from wanting to bring that love of craft into clothes people actually wear: vibrant, playful pieces with real character. Beautiful prints, joyful colour and traditional techniques, cut in small batches by the same makers I had met in Rajasthan and work with still.

Then came Genki Kids…

People kept asking whether we could make the same colourful, joyful clothes for children too, and Genki Kids was born.

For the last three years we’ve had a shop on London’s Southbank, and we stock English Heritage and independent retailers across the country. We’re now looking for more brilliant shops and partners to grow with.

Before you ask

Questions stockists ask

Anything not here, just ask. We answer email quickly.

What is Genki Kids?

Genki Kids is a wholesale range of handmade children's clothing from Genki Designs. The clothes are designed in London and hand printed and sewn by skilled artisans in Rajasthan, India, on pure cotton. Everything is made to order for independent shops rather than held in stock.

What sizes does Genki Kids come in?

Once you have chosen the shape and the fabric, choose the ages. We cut any age from 0 to 10 years, other than on selected styles that are made to a narrower range. The ladder runs 0–3m, 3–6m, 6–9m, 9–12m, 1–2, 2–3, 3–4, 4–5, 5–6, 6–7, 7–8, 8–9, 9–10, written as age spans the way the swing tags write them. The rompers are cut 0–3 years; every other shape runs 1–10.

What is hand blockprinting, and how is it different from screenprinting?

In hand blockprinting the design is carved by hand into a block of teak, one block per colour. The block is dipped in dye and struck onto the cloth, lined up against the last impression by eye, so a two metre length takes hundreds of strikes. In screenprinting the design is exposed onto a mesh screen, laid over the cloth and flooded with dye by hand, so the screen carries the whole repeat at once. Screenprinting costs less because it is quicker, not because it is lesser: blockprint gives you the hand of the maker in every piece, screenprint gives you twenty pieces that match.

Can I choose the fabrics for my order?

Yes, two ways. Assorted is included: Genki puts together a mix of colours and prints from the current season. Curated carries a small premium: you pick the fabrics you want from the current collection and the order is built around your palette.

What fabric are Genki Kids clothes made from?

One hundred per cent cotton on every style. It is soft, breathable, washes well, and takes a hand print beautifully.

How long does a wholesale order take?

Orders are made to order in Rajasthan and usually arrive in four to eight weeks.

How do I order Genki Kids wholesale?

There are five steps: choose your styles, choose the ages and quantities, choose hand blockprint or screenprint, choose assorted or curated fabrics, and the collection is then made and sent to you. To start, email info@genkidesigns.co.uk.

Who stocks Genki Kids?

Genki Kids is stocked by English Heritage alongside their own ranges, including the shop at Kenwood House on Hampstead Heath in London, and by independent children's and gift shops across the country.

What are the wholesale prices and minimum order?

Wholesale prices and order minimums go out with the line sheet. Email Genki to request the current one.
