You no longer have to take a trip to Rue Saint-Honoré to experience the full Colette gestalt. The cult Parisian boutique is coming to New York — temporarily, that is.

According to a press release from the brand, Coach is launching a kids’ collaboration with the store, featuring cutesy mascots like Rexy the T. Rex, Steggy the Stegosaurus, Tricky the Triceratops, and Woolly the Woolly Mammoth. (Think kids’ versions of the dino sweaters we saw them do for pre-fall.) To celebrate, Colette is taking over the brand’s Soho space on 143 Prince Street for a weeklong pop-up that will carry the eight-piece collection — as well as special items selected by Colette director Sarah Andelman, like a dinosaur lamp and temporary tattoos.

Stuart Vevers, the brand’s executive creative director, said in a statement that “We have worked closely on some fun and ambitious projects together since I joined Coach — but this one feels really personal and extra special,” with Andelman adding, “We’re super proud to be invited to invade the Soho store for the week. So come! Happy Halloween!”

The collaboration will be sold at Colette’s Paris flagship beginning October 17 and at the Prince Street store starting the 25th .
