Our Story
We started Gingersnaps 30 years ago. At that time, there was a gap in the Asian market for fashionable, high quality children’s clothing.
The brand captures the delight of our childhood memories— piles of beautiful fabric — organdy, pique, lace set in an old beautiful heritage house that served as an atelier– trips to our dressmaker which opened our eyes to the delight of everyday dress up!
Back then, so much attention was put into the smallest details, most of them done by hand — from little florets made with thread, to openwork lace trims, down to the hemming of dresses.
Inspired by this sensibility, we wanted to create a line of clothing that was relevant to the current times with a nod to nostalgia. Thus, the idea of Gingersnaps was born at the intersection of modern and vintage.
Our Brand
500 people work for us in a fully functional organization with in-house teams for Design, R&D, Production and Marketing.
Physical storefronts are the foundation of the Gingersnaps brand. We have 33 mono-brand company owned stores and 9 Store-in-store concepts in the Philippines and 46 franchised stores across Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia. We have evolved to meet the needs of mall goers in these countries, offering new drops every 45 to 60 days. We continue to evolve with a new generation of consumers, using digital marketing as we expand into Europe, the U.S., China and the rest of the world.
Our Identity
We believe that dressing up can inspire parents and children to enjoy their childhood. This is why Gingersnaps is made with care,
for play, and growth.
Our products are a celebration of creativity, and childlike wonder, with evolving styles that support and encourage your chiId's development. Each carefully designed & crafted to match the care you give your children.
Our Collections
We take pride that all steps of product development are done in house. We start with a theme, then colors, fabric, prints, and silhouettes— all must speak the same language.
At the same time comfort plays a big factor when selecting fabrics, if we aim to dress kids to have fun and look great!
Gingersnaps brings its own spin on whimsical fashion, and an appreciation for traditional Filipino crafts — embroidery, smocking, patchwork and more. It is our hope to share our brand of artistry and craftsmanship with the world with every collection.
Our Sustainability Statement
With our desire to bring delight in everyday dress-up, we have committed to the slow fashion movement and environmental responsibility. We use ethically sourced fabrics, and traditional needlework techniques to uphold their long-term wearability. These pieces are crafted with sustainability in mind, made to last and be handed down between siblings.
