MTK Is a Treasure from Down Under

Families have so many occasions to celebrate, from birthdays to holidays to weddings. Each milestone is a chance to get together with loved ones and observe rich traditions. Many times this means putting your best foot forward, wearing clothing that suits the day and fits just right. When there are kids involved, this can be a bit of a challenge. Most stores usually carry only a small selection of special occasion wear for children, and the choices don’t always have the style and quality that parents are seeking to find.

Enter Mini Treasure Kids, also known as MTK, a line of eye-catching, quality upscale clothing for girls and boys. MTK is an Australian brand making a name for itself in both the Southern and Northern hemispheres, thanks to its creative designs and attention to detail. Customers will likely find what they’re looking for whether they’re planning for a winter holiday party, a summer wedding, or just about anything in between.

The girls’ line offers floaty, pretty dresses in a delicate rainbow of colors. The cuts are mainly contemporary classic, with cool details like buttons, belts and floral additions to really make the styles pop. Soft lace leggings are also available to complete the special day look, and let’s not forget shoes! MTK offers shoes meant to complement its dresses. For the boys, you’ll find smart slacks, vests and shirts that have an easy-going charm.

Like many other children’s clothing entrepreneurs, MTK’s founder Conie Silvestro spent years in the fashion trade. After her first daughter was born, she realized that the long hours and hard work that she put into her career might be better spent on a venture of her own making, so in 2009 with the encouragement of family and a great deal of preparation, she launched Mini Treasure Kids. It was a challenge to start up a new business as the global financial crisis took hold, but the gamble paid off and today MTK is a thriving business, selling their products at many retail spots worldwide, participating in trade shows, and staying on top of trends to keep the brand fresh and relevant. Love for the design process is a big part of what keeps the brand alive.

Silvestro says she and her team enjoy all the little details that go into bringing a design to life. See the results at www.mtkaustralia.com
