Introducing the "She-Rex" Dinosaurs Leggings and Shirt Collection!

by Rebecca Melsky October 09, 2017 2 min read 4 Comments

When we started Princess Awesome, we wanted to tackle the gaping hole in the girls’ clothing market - dresses with themes on them that we could only find in the boys’ section. But we knew, even from the beginning, that not all girls like dresses. And not all girls who like dresses like only dresses. So we worked on making awesome dresses and knew what we would do next.

At Princess Awesome, we are not hasty in our product development. We are not satisfied with “good enough” fabric or “that’ll do” design. So we took our time. We went to multiple fabric shows and ordered dozens of samples to find soft, stretchy, thick fabric that would be perfect for sturdy, comfy, can-be-worn-as-pants leggings. Leggings that, of course, need to have functional pockets. We couldn’t find blank shirts to print on that met our expectations, so we decided to make our own. And we’re so glad we did. We know your kids are awesome and play hard and deserve clothes that are awesome and will play hard along with them.

All that is to say, we couldn’t be more excited to introduce to you the very first Princess Awesome leggings and shirt set: "She-Rex" Dinosaurs!

Enter to win a set of leggings and matching shirt! Just tag a friend from our announcement about this collection on Facebook - one lucky winner will win the set!

The leggings are made of thick 92% cotton/8% spandex fabric that is comfortable, soft, and warm.

Of course, they have pockets.

If your awesome girl wears this shirt on the red carpet, no one will need reminding to #AskHerMore.

The raglan shirts are made of a fabric which, honestly, we describe as magic fabric around here. It’s 100% cotton, super soft, thick, and cozy.

We are so excited to bring these new products to you and to give awesome girls more awesome clothing options.

Leggings and Shirts will be sold separately and available in sizes 2T - 12.

The Leggings and Shirts Collection will debut Monday, October 16, at 10am EST.

Please tell me you’re making adult sizes, too! Parent-child leggings? Why, yes!

Beyond excited about this. Do these run true to size? Or should I size up on leggings?

About the Designer - Carrie Cantwell

by Eva St. Clair September 02, 2023 3 min read

I’m an illustrator, surface designer and educator based in Atlanta, GA. I live with my boyfriend and our three rescue kitties, who very often make it into my art, especially the two black cats.

I feel very comfortable creating art for kids, because I'm really a kid at heart. I love cute animals and bright colors. I find it particularly satisfying to distill complex concepts into simple shapes that are stylized but easily recognizable.

Sienna Farr was one of Princess Awesome's first models, before our Kickstarter, before we were much more than a dream and a few dresses made of tee shirts and quilting material. She died in a fire that also seriously injured her mother on August 11, 2023, aged 13.
