The Complete Look | Top-to-Toe Outfits for Babies
Here at Childrensalon, we've been helping families dress their little ones with care and pride since 1952. Ever since our founder Sybil Harriman began by outfitting her own family immaculately, and showing others how to do the same, she believed in dressing children beautifully. She continues to inspire us to this day.
Over the decades, we’ve grown to understand that family life leaves less time for choosing clothes. That’s where our new instant-outfitting service comes in. The Complete Look is where you’ll find ready-to-shop looks, hand-selected and styled by our expert team of buyers, many of whom are parents themselves, to have the smallest members of your family looking and feeling their best for the day ahead.

Fun with Family
This look has been created with little ones in mind: comfortable, washable and made for movement.
The Versatile Two-Piece
Shopping for a perfectly put-together outfit for your baby is a lovely task, but with routines to stick to and time at a premium, it’s not always possible to buy everything in one go. That’s where our team of experts, led by Childrensalon's head of buying Dina Moon, is on hand to help with a collection of outfits, styled and ready for your baby to wear, just like this adorable everyday look from Mebi. “The buttoned neckline makes dressing a breeze,” says Dina, “whilst the elasticated waistband will keep baby comfy all day long.” Here, we’ve paired it with Babidu’s white Peter Pan collar top which peeks over the neckline. It’s a sweet yet smart pairing and will have them looking the part for cuddles with family and friends.

Ways to Wear
Spring is a season of in-between forecasts; one minute it can be bright and sunny, the next, the rain will start pouring. If you’re heading outdoors with your baby, then all this look needs is an extra layer. “This reversible BOSS jacket is ideal for the indecisive weather,” a dressing dilemma that, as a mum, Dina knows all too well. “The water-repellent fabric is great for showers and it’s lightly padded for a layer of warmth without being too hot,” she says. Simply add a pair of pre-walker trainers and pack a hat in your changing bag, just in case.
Cake and Candles
Celebration outfits don’t get much cuter than this five-piece look, complete with a baby bonnet.
The Celebration Shortie
The big day is here, and the guests have started to arrive with gifts in hand; now to make her entrance in this beautiful hand-picked outfit from Phi Clothing and friends. “This shortie is rather special,” says Dina. “Just look at those adorable grosgrain bows. And there are mother-of-pearl buttons on the back. We really enjoyed styling it with equally special pieces to create this outfit.” Underneath, Dina has opted for a comfy cotton bodysuit with a statement collar, paired with cosy tights and the prettiest pink pre-walkers by Early Days. “And we couldn’t resist adding a soft cotton-knit bonnet to complete the birthday girl’s look.”

Ways to Wear
Another great thing about a baby shortie is that it can be layered up or down depending on the occasion and the temperature. And we think this Phi Clothing design deserves to make more than just one appearance. “Take out the bodysuit and the tights, throw on a sun hat and some sandals and you’ve got yourself the perfect little summer outfit for your baby,” suggests Dina. “The sunglasses are an adorable finishing touch, whilst offering complete UV protection — the silicone strap also helps to keep them in place . . . for a while, at least.”
Milestone Moments
Give the gift of luxury with a beautiful babygrow set and coordinating cotton cardigan.
Little Luxuries ㅤ
If you’re in search of a thoughtful and stylish gift, our outfitting service is also a great place to find that special something, just like this Versace set with matching Babidu cardigan. “The star of the show is this luxurious babygrow and hat, printed all over with Versace’s signature Barocco print,” says Dina. “The addition of the ivory knitted cardigan just adds that Childrensalon touch to elevate the look further.” And we couldn’t agree more! To make it even more special, why not let us take care of the wrapping too by adding our luxury gift box to your order? It’ll be sure to impress on the big day, even before Mum and Dad have seen what’s inside.

Ways to Wear
When it comes to elevating this luxurious look, the best way to wear Versace is with even more Versace. And for parents who love the Italian designer’s print-on-print aesthetic, this gold-hued Barocco motif comes in an array of matching designs, including a beautiful baby blanket and a soft cotton bib, so they can add the whole collection to their little one’s nursery inventory.
