The new age of baby, children’s and maternity fashion

Individuality and sustainability have been playing an increasingly prominent role in the fashion industry for some time now. The domain of baby, children’s and maternity wear is no exception. This can also be seen at Kind + Jugend.

Quality over quantity

Manufacturers are responding to the changing needs of the market with high quality standards and placing more emphasis on sustainability. The absence of harmful substances is a major purchasing factor.

Clothing as a means of expression

The new style consciousness can also be seen in baby and children’s wear. Whether colours, patterns or cuts – clothing for the little ones should be fun and evoke emotions. Young parents can also make a fashion statement with partner looks and gender-neutral colours and designs.

Stylish throughout pregnancy

The new quality standards can also be seen in maternity wear. Even in the last trimester of pregnancy, more and more women want to look stylish and show off their belly with pride. This shift is leading to trendier and more form-fitting maternity fashion.
