Saurette - Contemporary Girlswear from The USA

USA

Introducing Saurette - A Contemporary Collection for 2-10 Girls. Saurette launches a collection of 2-10 contemporary girlswear at Thread Showroom in New York & Twig Showroom in Los Angeles for Spring 2009.

Saurette is best defined as petite versions of the modern mom. Simply put, Fashionable clothing for kids with unique style inspired by women's runway and contemporary design. Select styles will also be available in women's sizing.

For the Spring 2009 launch, prints include exploded florals, ikat florals and oversized placed florals that look like they came directly out of mom's closet to give a modern twist to the collection. The base of the collection is a silk/cotton voile. These garments make up incredibly soft to the touch & lend a sense of richness to the garment with a slight sheen that the silk gives off. There is a lot of attention to detail that makes the line unique. There are ribbon trims, hand embroidery, beading and specialty appliqu?s. Saurette also has clean finished internal seams and heat set labels for optimal comfort for our little girls.

For an appointment to view the collection, contact Thread Showroom NYC or Twig Showroom in LA.

Notes from the Designer, Lisa Kanouse
After 18 years in the fashion industry, Lisa Kanouse is launching her own brand of children's 2-10 contemporary apparel, Saurette, for Spring 2009.

"I started my career in fashion working as a freelance Photo Stylist for the Chicago Tribune and Marshall Fields. Those positions allowed me creative expression mixed with a lot of hard work. I moved on to buying and eventually found Product Development where I stayed for over 10 years creating & producing women?s collections for Saks Off 5th, Macy's & May Company. These were wonderful experiences where I was able to gain a broad range of knowledge of the retail business."

"Over the last few years, after having children and shopping the stores for my two little boys, I discovered how few modern pieces were available for kids. I wanted to offer parents such as myself, an opportunity to purchase clothing that was modern, contemporary and more unique than what I was finding in the stores. This sparked the birth of Saurette."
