Pinafores, tabards, and “Dress-Ups” were some of Eiseman’s early design staples. They allowed a dress to be adapted for multiple occasions with the addition of a button-on or tied garment. 

Another early hallmark was the Eiseman signature embroidery, which allowed children’s garments to say “hello,” “good bye,” or proclaim its wearer as “Big as a Minute.” Often personalized with a child’s name, these hand-embroidered garments featured Eiseman’s own handwriting.
