Tips
How to choose kids clothes
Updated 12.04.2026 · about 6 min read
A good choice starts with the fabric and the cut. Today comfort matters more than a strict fit for children — yet the result can still look genuinely stylish.
A little stretch makes life easier
A touch of elastane helps clothes fit better and keep their shape on the move, especially on tracksuits, leggings and tops.
Fleece and jersey for layering
In cooler weather, soft mid-layers are more comfortable than stiff, heavy materials, because the child can move more freely in them.
Seasonality without overthinking it
A child's wardrobe does not have to be complicated. With soft fabrics and a looser cut as the base, the same piece can be worn in more situations.
Spring and autumn
The best solution is layering: a T-shirt, a thin sweatshirt and a soft outer layer. A looser cut leaves room for movement and an extra layer.
Summer
Choose breathable, light fabrics that do not cling to the skin. Loose-cut dresses, T-shirts and shorts are practical.
Winter
In winter clothing it matters that the base layer is soft and the outer layer a little roomier. That way a warm layer fits underneath without making movement clumsy.
Comfort > style
But still looking good
- Oversize suits kids clothing naturally, because a child needs room to run, sit and play.
- Relaxed silhouettes look modern and work well both on a special day and on an ordinary school day.
- Soft fabrics and loose cuts are strongly in focus in adult fashion too — the baggy, relaxed look carries straight over into kids fashion.
Quick tips for the moment of buying
Always put comfort first and let style follow it.
Check whether the child can easily put on the jacket, sweatshirt or dress themselves.
Avoid overly stiff seams, scratchy labels and heavy synthetic linings.
When buying single-season basics, favour neutral tones and a looser cut that is easy to combine.

Once the cut and the fabric are settled, confirm the purchase in the right size first. This helps avoid models that are too tight or too long.

Which fabric is the most practical for kids clothing?
For everyday wear, soft cotton or a cotton blend is usually the most practical: it breathes and feels comfortable against the skin.
Should kids clothes be tighter or looser?
These days looser cuts work better. They support movement and layering, and give clothes a longer wearing life.
Is oversize just a trend for kids?
No. Oversize and loose silhouettes are on trend, but for kids they also have very practical value: comfort, room to grow and easier layering.
