After 18 years in the industry, Lisa Kanuese launched her own brand of children's apparel for Spring 2009. "Over the last few years, after having children and shopping the stores for my two little boys, I discovered how few modern pieces were available for kids. I wanted of offer parents, such as myself, an opportunity to purchase clothing that was modern, contemporary and more unique than what I was finding in stores. This sparked the birth of Saurette."
