We just love baby sleepgowns and this new Seafari one from Frugi fair trade clothes is no exception. Baby Gowns are one of our most popular items – they make night time nappy changes so much easier than sleepsuits and they are so comfortable to sleep in.

Babies can wiggle their legs without rumpling, they can enjoy skin on skin contact by rubbing their legs together as he did in the womb. No fiddly poppers to deal with during nappy changes. Baby sleepgowns made with soft organic cotton too! The wide neck opening will make it easier for babies who don’t like clothes being pulled over their heads

Frugi fair trade clothes are ideal for babies with eczema. The 100% organic cotton is soft on the skin and there is no scratchy label. The organic cotton is unbleached. The gorgeous colours are also obtained using environmentally responsible dyes.

Frugi clothing is extremely good value. The baby gowns are designed to be worn from birth to 6 months, and the high quality cotton is extremely durable, making it possible to pass the fair trade clothes to friends or younger siblings.

Frugi fair trade clothes is manufactured in rural India. Frugi pays great attention to to working conditions, wages and human rights. No employee is under 18 years of age and the company supports a local tribal school.

Frugi is also a member of 1% for the Planet, an alliance of businesses committed to using their resources to create a healthier planet.

No doubt the eye-catching new Seafari collection will be a hit with the children.

Frugi organic baby clothing is among our favourite, and our best sellers too. The high quality organic cotton makes the Frugi fair trade clothes incredibly soft and strong.

All Frugi fair trade clothes are cut a little bigger for reusable nappies and extra wiggle room.

Frugi has introduced the new Seafari sleepsuit, a playful twist on the old safari print favourite. The cute designs and cheerful colours make it a favourite with the children too. “My little boy learnt to say animal names by pointing at his sleepsuit in the morning”, says Laura.

organic baby clothing

I had heard about the Frugi (then cut4cloth) organic baby clothing range when my baby was little. It wasn’t until I visited the Natural Nursery shop that was then in Bristol that I had a chance to actually see and touch the clothes.

The organic baby clothing was amazing: extremely soft to the touch, it also looked sturdy. The trousers were all lined also with soft organic cotton. I haven’t seen any baby clothes as soft as the Frugi organic baby clothing.

I bought a pair of trousers and some pyjamas for my little one. When they became too small, they were passed to a cousin then to his little brother. Now they’re packed up and ready to be sent to another little cousin about to be born. They’ve been worn, washed, dried, tumbled dried, have gone down slides, shuffled around the floor when the babies learnt to crawl and are still in very good condition.

It shows that buying good quality organic baby clothing is also very good value. Would some cheap pair of trousers last through 4 children? I don’t think so.

What also decided me to buy Frugi is that they are fair trade clothes. It means I’m doing my part to ensure the workers in another country have the opportunity to prosper just as I do. Instead of buying clothing that is cheap to manufacture and purchase, I prefer high quality organic baby clothing as well as fair trade standards.

Have you bought organic baby clothing for your little ones? What did you think? We’d love to hear from you.
