Disa NYC takes more than its name from its home base—all of the brand’s sophisticated, minimalist designs are handcrafted in New York City, too. Gleaning inspiration from the free-spirited wildness of childhood, the collection comprises a mix of modern silhouettes (think unisex garments like drop crotch pants) and traditional pieces (like dresses with underskirts and ruffled tunics). The fall collection includes sweatshirts, long-sleeved tees, corduroy pants, hoodies, denim and dresses in a classic palette of grays and blues, as well as bold shades like burgundy and magenta. Kid-inspired prints include puzzles, stars and chalkboard drawings. Available in sizes 2T to 6, wholesale prices range from $20 to $60. To find out more, see www.disanyc.com.
Want to add some American-made options to your selection? Consider going golden—Golden, CO, that is. The city is home to Eddy and Scout, and it’s also where 100 percent of the company’s clothing is made. Formerly named Little Red Canoe, the brand re-launched at February’s KidSHOW in Las Vegas. Offering ultra-soft, grow-with-me sized clothing for boys and girls ages 2 to 12, the collection’s extendable seams and double sizing give its dresses, pants, hoodies, tops and leggings a longer life span and make the items ideal for lanky little ones. For Fall ’15, the collection takes inspiration from playing in the woods and features deeply saturated shades of red, teal, charcoal and moss green. Meanwhile, spunky screen-prints—think zip-lining squirrels and cityscapes—add edge to the earthy styles. Wholesale prices range from $16 to $28.50. Check out ww.eddyandscout.com to learn more.
