fine children’s clothing

Susanne Lively Designs

Susanne Lively Designs specializes in gorgeous girls dresses for a special occasion and holiday.  Their dresses are ornate creations of silk, satin, organza and tulle, that will make any girls dream come true.  Each girls dress has beautiful details, such as pearl beading, sashes that tie into over-sized bows and silk flowers.  Run by a mother and daughter team of Suzanne and Melissa, their attention to customer service equals their attention to beautiful fashion design.

Rebecca Raggs

This mother and daughter team of Glenda Wood and Nancy Orton, owners of Rebecca Raggs, has been designing delightful children’s clothing since 1981. Their kids clothing line is based in California, and sold through children’s specialty boutiques in the U.S. and Japan. Rebecca Raggs specializes in fun prints and whimsical details for younger children, such as appliqués and tiered ruffles on girls dresses and animal appliqués on boys outfits.  They have recently expanded their apparel line to include sleeker styles for older girls.  Most importantly, Rebecca Raggs’ quality is terrific. Attesting to this fact, they won the International Kids Fashion Show Panache Award for outstanding standards of excellence in quality control.

Cupcake

Another California based children’s clothing designer, Kirsten Sedestrom of Cupcake, specializes in casual girls separates, in sizes 6 months to 6X, that are “yummy”.  Her trendy designs and fabric combinations stand out among girls clothing designers. Delicate ruffles, contrasting prints and embroidery are the trademarks of Cupcake’s designs. While only having debuted her girls apparel line for Fall 2000, we are impressed with Kirsten’s attention to detail and quality of service.

Florencia Bambini Belli

Florencia Gradillas, the owner and designer for Bambini Belli, specializes in European designs for toddlers through teens.  Designing clothing since the age of 14, Florencia found her real passion to be the children’s apparel market.  Using top of the line, imported fabrics, such as silk, linen, wool and cashmere, and exquisite detailing, such as mother of pearl buttons and silk braiding, Florencia’s overall concept is “luxury” for your child.  Her childrens clothing designs are understated elegance and feature many two-piece sets, double-breasted dresses and pinafore style dresses for girls and double-breasted jackets for boys.

Katie & Co.

True, classic children’s clothes, is the best description for the creations by Katie & Co. This Lewisburg, Pennsylvania based company, run by the Albin family, creates high quality, tailored clothing for girls and boys. Besides designing wonderful sailor style girls dresses and two-piece outfits for boys, and classic linen dresses, the Albins are terrific to work with and are always ready to assist us in our requests.

Beets N’ Snips

Based in Utah, Beets N’ Snips offers, in their own words, “girls clothes styles that never age with time”.  We couldn’t agree more. The trademark of their girls clothing collection is a pinafore jumper over an eyelet slip dress. All girls styles are made from beautiful fabrics and uniquely detailed with fanciful buttons, organza sashes, and lace trim.
