About La Gentile Store
Welcome to La Gentile Store
La Gentile Store is an independent online destination for babies, kids and people who love beautiful things.
Founded in the Netherlands by Els Gentile, La Gentile was created from a love for discovering special pieces, independent brands and everyday essentials that feel a little different. Today, we carefully curate clothing, accessories, toys, books, home pieces and more for babies, children and teens — from newborn up to 16 years.
Our collection brings together established favorites and emerging brands from across Europe and beyond. We are drawn to thoughtful design, beautiful materials, playful details and pieces with personality — from timeless essentials and soft knitwear to statement pieces, vintage finds and unexpected treasures.
Alongside our carefully selected brands, you will also discover Gentile Curated and a growing collection of handpicked vintage pieces, chosen for their character and timeless appeal.
Run by a Mom of Two
La Gentile is independently owned and run by Els — a mom of two with a love for beautiful things for little ones.
And yes, mom of two is very much part of the La Gentile story. Behind the scenes, this small business is balanced between packing orders, discovering new brands, answering emails, family life and everything else that comes with running a business.
So, with a little wink: sometimes it might take a little while to get back to your email, and sometimes you might receive a reply in the middle of the night. We are doing our utmost best — and truly appreciate your patience.
La Gentile is built with a lot of love, passion and dedication — and occasionally a cup of coffee that has gone cold.
Thank you for supporting a small, independent business and for being part of our journey. It truly means the world to us.
With love,
Els Gentile
