This retro children's editorial featured in Milk Magazine proves that enjoying the fashion sensibilities of past decades is not just a pastime reserved for adults.
The adorable tots are styled according to David Hockney's aesthetic. Hockney was an English painter who made important contributions to the Pop Art movement of the 1960s. He is widely recognized as one of the most influential British artists working in the latter half of the 20th century. Hélène Lahalle did an excellent job of recreating Hockney's aesthetic for the purposes of this editorial, which was photographed by Oliver Spies.
Kids are cute no matter what, but kids looking like little adults in their retro swimwear is almost too adorable to handle.
