Mommy question

Okay, I am calling on our mommies for some design input here...

On the little summer tops with the thin straps, do you prefer that they tie, so they are adjustable, or do the ties make you insane?? We have a new style for Spring 09 and I am debating as to whether or not we make the ties adjustable, or we sew them in place with a bow, so they have that look, but don't come untied.

Thank you in advance for your time and help!!

  1. Hi Amber,

    Sounds cute! Personally I prefer it to look like a bow but be sewn in place.
    Here are the reasons why I don't care for the ones you have to tie:

    1. I can never seem to get them even.

    2. They seem to come untied, so I am always retying through the day.

    3. When going to hang the top/dress after washing I usually have to tie it to get it on the hanger and then untie when I want them to wear it again and re-tie again once it's on.
    4. The presewn bow probably looks WAY better cuter than any bow I can make.

    Probably way more than you wanted to know but I figured it would give you things to consider. Either way you do it, I am sure it will be adorable like all your other pieces!

  3. Thanks for all of your help!! We are creating the designs today and we have finalized the style with sewn-in-place shoulder ties. I love hearing a mom's perspective...totally makes sense! Thanks again for your comments.
