Junior Design Awards 2022 / 26 September 2022

Best Children’s Sleepwear Collection (Baby) | Junior Design Awards 2022

With so much baby nightwear to chose from it can be hard to know where to start. We suggest you start with these award winning designs....

Who:Lil & Izzy

What:Organic Cotton Onesies

Why:

These gorgeous onesies really made our judges coo and that was before they’d even touched the soft organic cotton fabric. The panel agreed that these little suits were wonderfully soft and details like a diagonal two way zipper for quick and easy changing and fold over mitts that prevent accidental scratches, really impressed.

The fold over feet that extend the life of these onesies were also applauded. The sweet, nature inspired prints and soothing colour palette sealed the deal on this independent brand winning Gold.

Gorgeous onesies that are pretty, comfy for baby and highly practical for parents.

Bonita Turner, Editor of JUNIOR

Beautiful prints and love the soft hues.

Excellent details, the 2 way zipper, fold over feet and reinforced knees. And pretty prints.

Charlotte Kewley, children’s stylist, @thelittlestylist

Stunning buttery soft sleepwear that will be handed down the generations

Sara Davis Smith, children’s author, @sara_davis_smith

Who:Mimi & Bowe

What:Mimi & Bowe Classic Onesie

Why:

Cosy was the key word our judges used to describe these organic cotton onesies that are heavily brushed on the interior to ensure an ultra-soft and comforting feel, as well as being lightly brushed on the exterior for a beautiful hand-feel.

On top of being a dream to wear (and cuddle!), these onesies also scored highly on aesthetics, our panel agreeing that these suits were equal parts cute, contemporary and cool. A great purchase for any new parents and the perfect gift from friends and family.

Just love the look and feel of this brand – a fresh take on a much loved essential.

These babygrows caught my eye at the awards. I adore the colour combinations and of course, they're super soft. I think my own little one may be wearing one soon...

Charlotte Kewley, children’s stylist, @thelittlestylist

Classic and cosy, these rompers are the stuff sweet dreams are made of.

Sara Davis Smith, children’s author, @sara_davis_smith

Babies live in onesies, so it’s great to see so much thought has gone into these. I absolutely love the prints! Fun without being lairy and cool without compromising on cute!

Who:The Little White Company

What:Premium cotton sleepwear for babies

Why:

These super-soft cotton and velour baby sleepsuits, featuring adorable prints and beautiful detailing, really impressed our judges who felt that Little White Company had outdone themselves with this season’s collection. The beautiful quality, imaginative but subtle designs with a dash of humour and the use of organic cotton were all big talking points.

The panel all agreed that this brand continues to excel in offering wonderful quality and adorable baby wear on the high end of the British High Street

I was expecting the Little White Company’s edit to be good but this collection was squeal-out-loud gorgeous. Classic adorable, practical and extremely high quality.

Bonita Turner, Editor of JUNIOR

As expected, great quality from The Little White Company!

Charlotte Kewley, children’s stylist, @thelittlestylist

If anyone ever presents me with a White Company box or bag they are in my good books for life. These super sweet pyjamas with a playful twist have reminded me why.
