A Shout Out to the Winning Team of Pageants and Pom-Poms!
Cheerleading and pageant competitions are about one thing: standing out. Competitors can’t buy talent or athleticism, but they can buy eye-catching apparel to draw the judges’ attention. In addition to featuring flexible fabrics for active movement, costumes for these competitions should be age-appropriate and reflect individual style. For child pageants, Spoiled Little Mama and Butterfly Kisses are go-to experts for customized looks. Want to become the dealer of choice for your local school’s cheer and drill uniforms? Consider Motionwear for winning styles, along with briefs, tops, and accessories from JB Bloomers.

Their motto is: “We make the best so you can be your best.”
Cheer Kids offers multiple styles of uniforms and a complete style guide for perfect sizing, including sizes 18 months to size 20, and up to size 30 if needed.
