We started Teres Kids to create simple beautiful clothes for active kids. By eliminating all the things that make kids uncomfortable, like itchy seams, tags and rough fabrics, we can help all children be comfy and stay active.
After graduating from the University of New Mexico with a degree in Art, Marianne Broughton spent more than a decade designing and crafting furniture in Washington, DC. Following a move to the Southwest and the birth of her daughter Tuesday, Marianne has focused on clothing design and the development of Teres Kids as an outlet for her interest in comfort, beauty and sustainability. Marianne was born in Chicago.
Following a modeling career in New York City, Alexandra Merlino created a widely known line of artisan-crafted leather goods that were produced in India and sold by more the 400 US retailers. After the birth of her daughter, Helena and a move to New Mexico, Alex began developing the Teres Kids concept as an expression of her entrepreneurial drive that keeps her focus closer to home. Alexandra was born and raised in Los Angeles and has a degree in Political Science from Hunter College.
