Choosing the perfect outfit for your newborn's memorable journey home is about celebrating a significant family milestone. It's essential to find an outfit that's not just eye-catching but also cosy and crafted from gentle fabric to ensure your little one's comfort during their first car ride to their new home.
Every detail of your baby’s debut look will be cherished in photos and memories for years to come.
Here's our guide to finding the ideal attire that is as comfy as it is cute for that special day:
1. Prioritise Comfort with the Right Material:
Look for garments made from soft and airy fabrics such as certified cotton blends to keep your baby's sensitive skin happy and rash-free. Fabrics with a low added elastane blend ensure the fabric is stretchy and regains its shape when washed. It's best to avoid outfits with heavy embellishments that may poke or prod.
2. Plan for the Climate:
The outfit should match the season, with lighter fabrics for the summer and a cosier getup for cooler months to keep your baby snug.
3. Look for Convenience:
Select garments that are straightforward to dress and undress, featuring snaps or zips, or even slip-ons over complicated buttoned ones.
4. Get the Size Right:
Babies come in all shapes and sizes; some may need '0-3 months' sizes from the get-go. Having various sizes at your disposal is a wise move. Look for items with cuffs that can be turned back to reduce the length of sleeves & legs - that way you can ensure the most amount of use out of your item.
5. Accessorise Thoughtfully:
The right hat, a pair of booties, or a cosy swaddle blanket can be the finishing touches to make your baby's homecoming outfit extra special. Choose accessories that are as practical as they are adorable.
