The popular clothing brand Nippaz with Attitude is the brainchild of former graphic artist and A&R man Ian McLaren who nine years ago started a nobler life where baby and toddler stuff covered in bunnies and bears were consigned to Dante's Eighth Circle of Hell. Launched in 2001, his alternative range of kids' ad nay clothes quickly gained a celebrity following from Madonna, Gwyneth Paltrow, the Gallagher brothers, Stella McCartney and Jack White.
