Bequita Puts a Modern Twist on Traditional Chinese Designs

A feast for the eyes, the captivating Bequita line of children’s apparel is an artful collection inspired by both Eastern and Western cultures. Rebecca Bardes, a.k.a. Bequita, is the creative force behind the brand’s clean lines and beautiful fabrics. A graduate of the School of Visual Arts in NYC, Rebecca traveled to China in 2004, where she met her husband, contemporary artist Hu Renyi. Rebecca says of her collections, “I consider Bequita to be Traditional Culture Redefined. Each collection is made to honor and redefine the traditional by creating modern fashions for children of the East and the West.”

Inspired by nature, Bequita creates a paradise of relaxation without sacrificing style. While simplicity speaks volumes at Bequita, this exquisite apparel collection for children ages 6 months to 6 years refuses to go unnoticed. The line’s sensuous colors are reminiscent of Eastern spices used to create tempting flavors in Asian cuisine; saffron, mustard, chili, cardamom, brown sugar and mango are but a few of the appetizing colors available, which perfectly complement children’s smiling faces.

Like yin and yang, Bequita collections are a perfect harmony of traditional Chinese culture and contemporary flair. Each carefully crafted piece is balanced with charming embellishments and artful elements that place Bequita in a class of its own. Signature design details, such as original hand-drawn fabric prints, handmade Chinese knot closures, mandarin collars and Yuan and Qing Dynasty inspired trims make Baquita stand out from the crowd. Indeed, parents will be charmed with this new sense of fashion that offers age old comfort and sensibility, without sacrificing innovative style that suits the personality of their one-of-a-kind kid! Bequita promises to offer head-turning clothes with fashion sensibility that never grows old.

In addition to focusing on fabulous style, Baquita is also mindful of the environment. Baquita works closely with its fabric suppliers, production facilities and staff to ensure ethical and sustainable production of its apparel from start to finish. Baquita’s Organic Cotton Collection is made from 100% certified organic cotton, and is dyed with low-impact, environmentally friendly dyes and water-based inks.

Offering supreme comfort and style, this up-and-coming brand is amassing a following of children who refuse to wear anything else! For more information, visit www.bequita.com
