Make a B-Line to Belle 'N Beaux’s A-Line

By Angela Pike

Turn back the hands of time to a few decades ago when nearly every household had a sewing machine that was used frequently. Oftentimes, mothers made most of their children’s clothing. A favorite among sewing projects… the classic A-line dress. It was simplistic, timeless, comfortable and practical for active little girls. Children’s clothing has definitely evolved over the years to include a variety of fashion looks, yet the A-line dress remains a staple. Belle ‘N Beaux takes the A-line style to the next level with striking hues, modern patterns and creative embellishments.

A family business, Belle ‘N Beaux originated from Janelle Waguespack’s passion for sewing. Growing up in a family of 11, it was a given that she learn the art of sewing. Years later, Waguespack became a grandmother and continued sewing for her grandchildren. Eventually, she decided to share her talent and creative designs with the rest of the little “belles” and “beaux” of the world. With the help of her daughter-in-law, Meredith Waguespack, and daughter, Amy Stricker, she started a wholesale line and Belle ‘N Beaux was born.

The ladies behind Belle ‘N Beaux began with the concept of the A-line dress, then artfully updated this classic and made it their own with modern twists and unique fabric designs. They expanded their little “belle” line to include reversible dresses as well as tunics paired with leggings. To meet the needs of little “beaux,” they offer a limited classic line including shorts, polos, and tee’s with eye-catching graphics. Color combinations of yellow and navy create a nautical line, while soft pastels are the pallet for their garden party line.

On top of the stylishness of Belle ‘N Beaux creations, the pieces are versatile and comfortable. All fabrics are of the highest quality and everything is made in the USA. With the reversible feature, children get multiple looks for each outfit, offering long-lasting value.

Belle ‘N Beaux’s apparel is available in sizes 1T-4T. The Fall Dress Line is currently being shown at the Dallas Apparel Market in Suite #8850 in the JAG Showroom. Work is underway on the upcoming designs for the Spring and Summer 2012 collection.
