Earnshaw's, the leading children's apparel trade magazine, announced the nominee for the title's coveted Earnie Award today. The apparel manufacturers vying for this year's recognition represent the best in children's fashion, as voted on by their retailers.

Earnshaw's will announce the winners in October at its annual Earnie Award party and will profile those companies in its November issue.

“In today's retail landscape, it's increasingly important for manufacturers to forge strong partnerships with retailers. An Earnie Award nomination reflects the superior design and service each of these vendors provide to their customers,” stated publisher Stephen Schwartz.

“The Earnie Award was designed to recognize those who make great strides in children's wear design, but the spirit of the award celebrates all of those who contribute to our industry's continued success,” stated Caletha Crawford, editor in chief of Earnshaw's magazine. “This year is Earnshaw's 90th anniversary, and the magazine has always been committed to supporting children's wear and those who work in the industry.”

The Earnies has earned its prestigious status over the last three decades. This year, the awards focus on 21 categories within the children's apparel industry, including the infant and toddler market, girls' wear, boys' wear, sleepwear, swimwear and accessories.

Nominees are selected by a committee consisting of children's wear experts; the winners are then selected by retailers across the country.
