MARUSHA BELLE® is all about storytelling and color.
Founded by creative entrepreneur, illustrator, author and designer Marusha Belle, the brand has a global presence and is trusted by companies including TJX, Hallmark, Jillson Roberts, HarperCollins, and many more.
A graduate with an MFA in Fashion Design, Marusha faced a life-threatening diagnosis Hodgkin's lymphoma that changed everything.
Through drawing and storytelling, she found strength and healing.
What began as small handcrafted textile dolls, each with its own narrative, blossomed into an international art licensing brand.
