Our Story
My name is Malena Kjol, I am the founder and creator of Graceful Kate Children’s Boutique and, most importantly, I am mother of two beautiful girls: Camila Grace and Irina Kate. They are my passion and the inspiration behind this brand and its name. I adore outfitting my girls for every occasion. I search for pieces that are elegant, classic, and charming. I particularly love hand-smocked outfits; however, I’ve noticed that, though pricey, these items are often lacking in quality materials and construction.
As a proud Salvadoran, it has been my dream to build a brand that not only creates jobs in my home country, but empowers women who are striving for a better life. What better way than by creating a clothing brand that specializes in boutique quality, hand-smocked, children’s clothing to showcase the talent and passion of these women? Together, we carefully source the highest quality materials and create exclusive designs that can only be found at Graceful Kate. Each garment is made from hand selected cotton Pique fabric that is breathable, durable, easily cared for and offers excellent give and comfort. Quality is our top priority. We believe that our outfits will amplify the beauty of everyday moments.
Though time never slows and fashion continues to change, I believe that the essence of our babies remains pure and blissful, always. At Graceful Kate we continue to strive for a timeless quality in our garments that can be worn for generations to come. I am proud to be able to employ the people of my past to bring these meaningful outfits to your children, and I look forward to what the future holds.
