May 9, 2002 -- Richmond VA -- From socks to suits and Flapdoodles to Skivvydoodles, SnipsnSnails.com caters to the discriminating boy, who will dress only in the finest clothing. With the largest online selection of Eton suits in the industry, Snips n Snails offers expert advice for boys wedding attire.

How to dress a ring bearer? According to Emily Post's Complete Book of Wedding Etiquette, "the most appropriate dress is short pants with an Eton jacket, preferably white but occasionally navy. Small editions of the ushers' costumes are not in good taste."

Owner of Snips n Snails, Kim Michaux of Richmond, Virginia, chimes in, With a serious shortage of classic boys apparel online and elsewhere, it is harder to find appropriate boys wedding attire. We carry the ties, socks, shoes, etc -- to offer 'one stop shopping for weddings."

In addition to the seven styles of Eton suits, accessories, and other extensive lines of classic clothing, SnipsnSnails.com offers personalized service and expert advice to their customers. Unlike other online stores, our customers are pampered and catered to. If desired, we will assist them in sizing choices, buying the right suit for their occasion and choosing the appropriate accessories," says Michaux.

According to the Fashion Police column in the LA Times, which recently directed readers to SnipsnSnails.com as an Eton source, The original Eton suits were worn by young schoolboys at Eton College in Windsor, England, from the late 1700s to the mid-1960s. They consisted of a cropped jacket with wide lapels and a white shirt with a large starched collar, a dark, narrow tie and a vest. The suits became so popular that even boys who didn't attend Eton wore them. They eventually evolved into a formal suit for very young boys in America and England, popular for occasions such as weddings."

After just over a year in business, SnipsnSnails.com has emerged as the premier online source for Eton suits. Rick Kaufman, owner of Imp Originals, (a wholesale manufacturer of Eton suits since 1946), says about SnipsnSnails.com, Kim Michaux is a valued retail customer, with the highest volume online sales, and represents our product with integrity and quality service to the end consumer. We often refer consumers directly to her web site, SnipsnSnails.com."
