Nick Jr. has released the first look at Made by Maddie, its upcoming animated preschool series. The series, which was formerly known as Fashion Ally, follows 8-year-old Maddie in New York City, as she uses her imagination and design ingenuity to turn every problem into a positive with the perfect fashion fix. The trailer came with the news that the series will premiere on Sunday, Sept. 13, at 11 a.m. (ET/PT) on the Nick Jr. channel. It will then continue to air regularly on Sundays at 11 a.m. (ET/PT) on the Nick Jr. channel.

Made by Maddie centers on Maddie (Alyssa Cheatham), a quick-thinking little girl with a big personality and a huge heart, who has a passion for fashion. Maddie finds design inspiration around every corner and her big ideas couldn’t become a reality without the love and support of her aspirational and talented fashion designer mom, Dee (Patina Miller), and her super cool and upbeat musician dad, Rashad (James Monroe Iglehart), along with the assistance of friends and neighbors, including kind, animal-loving best friend, Jada (Sophia Torres), and the twinsโ€”rule-following Harper (Amanda Dressel) and fearless Hudson (Ames McNamara)โ€”who are always up for adventure. Maddie’s creative thinking and dazzling designs are a reflection of the bustling, colorful city of New York and its residents. Maddie confidently embraces her own unique style, celebrates individuality, treats everyone with kindness, and encourages others to take risks and be themselves.
