With global fashion trends now influencing the styles available, and an increasing focus on sustainable and ethical fashion, the future of the children’s wear market looks bright.
Main functional attributes to consider when selecting which brands to recommend:
- Comfort: First and foremost, children need to feel good in the clothing they put on. We made sure our kid testers weren’t bothered by the fabrics, tags, or any embellishments.
- Durability: Kids put their clothes through the wringer, so they need to be built to last. We consider whether the clothes pill or rip through general wear and tear.
- Washability: The last thing parents need to deal with is a high-maintenance garment that requires dry cleaning or hand washing. We recommend garments that could stand up to easy machine washing.
- Cost: We considered a wide range of price points, but primarily focused on more affordable options since kids outgrow their clothing so quickly.
- Style: Our focus was also on a wide range of designs to incorporate options for every kid’s (and parent’s!) preference.
- Convenience: Whether you prefer to shop online or in stores, the buying process should be easy. We considered widely available brands as well as online retailers with user-friendly experiences.
- Ease of use: Clothing should be easy for kids to get on and off themselves. We considered options for self-dressing that can help foster independence at all ages.
- Sustainability: Last but not least, we considered whether the stores have any sustainable attributes, from the use of organic materials to corporate initiatives around their environmental impact.
To conclude in the upcoming Brands in the kids wear segment our pick is an Indonesian Label called be “Bold & Kool Aka B&K) (Bold & ko), drives its inspiration from the essence and depth of tropical living from world’s largest island country of Indonesia. The clothes are classic, sophisticated, and inspired by the spirit of Bold and courageous Children all over the world.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
