Long before the birth of Pink Chicken, founder Stacey Fraser was a little girl swirling in vintage fabrics in her grandmother’s clothing boutique. Perched in the backroom, she listened in on vendor meetings and watched in awe as her poised Mimi set the stage for her own future success in the fashion industry.
OUR STORY
Pink Chicken, Then and Now
Fast forward to 2009.
After nearly 15 years in the fashion corporate world, Stacey decided to take a break and focus on her young daughter and new baby girl while living in NYC and spending summer weekends at the beach. During nap times, she would sew garments made of a multitude of patterns from bright block prints to 60’s florals. The spirit of sunny beach days and her love for vintage textiles came together to create easy and stylish pieces for the beach or dinner, for herself and her daughters.
She knew she was onto something when people stopped her in the streets and asked her where she got those happy, boho pieces. So Pink Chicken was born - of vintage roots, happy mixes of color and patterns, and most of all- the shared spirit of mothers and daughters.
Today, Pink Chicken is more than a clothing company.
It’s a joyful flock.
Of happy and creative souls.
Of mothers and daughters.
What We Believe In
spreading sunshine
Our sunny collection of bright block prints, vintage-inspired patterns and not-so-basic basics will have you walking on air from park to playdate, and beach to barbecue. We believe that when children love and feel comfortable in their clothing, it boosts their confidence and sparks imagination, creativity, and joy.
Original Patterns & Prints
While all the details make us sing, unique patterns make Pink Chicken pieces truly special. We take inspiration from decades past and faraway places, and design *all* of our prints and patterns in-house. With each new season, we’re happily stitching the spirit of a sunny day into every garment we make.
Giving Back
Did you know that for every 12 dresses sold, Pink Chicken gives one away? With your help, we’re making days brighter for children everywhere. To date, we’ve donated 25,000 pieces of clothing and counting. We’re so thankful for the flock that helps us spread happiness wherever we go. Learn More
Customer Love
Your size is out of stock? We’re on it. Not sure what your fit is? We’ve got you. We know you’re busy, so we do whatever it takes to get exactly what you want, when you want it. We love this special community, and we do a little happy dance while we go the extra mile for you. Contact Us
Pieces That Last
Every stitch and detail of a Pink Chicken frock is created to last for generations and transcend the trends. Dresses transition effortlessly to tunics through your child’s growth spurts and can be passed down from child to child. Every piece can weather the wear of playing, exploring and happy adventuring.
Sustainability
As mothers, we know how important it is to take care of the Earth for future generations. It starts in our office where we've eliminated all paper and plastic as well as our retail stores where we are phasing out single use bags, and ends on your doorstep with pieces that last for years to come, delivered in 100% recycled mailers.
At the end of the day, we’re a little vintage.
A little bohemian. Very Pink Chicken.

Marielle, our latest addition to the PC design team, made her way to NYC via Michigan! Growing up in a large family (she is a triplet!), Marielle spent much of her time on the lake and her grandma helped spark her love for fashion by teaching her how to sew. When she isn’t working on fresh prints and patterns for the brand, you can find her spending time with her beloved cat, Spooky Butt.

Laurel made the trek from Madison, WI to Madison Ave, bringing a dash of the midwest to Pink Chicken. She’s a true visionary- breathing life and color into the stores with new products. She follows in the footsteps of her grandparents, who passionately owned and operated a clothing store for 40 years.

Julia
Customer Service + Ecommerce Assistant
If you have contacted customer service, you probably already know Julia - a Jersey girl who goes the extra mile to make sure that you are happy with your orders.

Suzanne
Director of Wholesale Sales
A mom of two, Suzanne’s had a lifelong career in the fashion industry before she landed happily at Pink Chicken. When not spending time with her family and dog in NJ, she loves wandering the City, headphones on, cup of coffee in hand, with nowhere to be.

Chloe

Chloe brings the most positive energy and light to our little store in the LowCountry! After graduating from the College of Charleston where she studied Women’s Studies and Communications, she walked into the store on King Street to inquire about a job, and after chatting with Rebecca for nearly 2 hours, the rest is history! An avid book reader who loves a good brunch, you can find Chloe biking around downtown Charleston, discovering new alleyways and libraries!
