Baby Clothes

First comes the baby's first Body, put on with the utmost care at the maternity ward. Then come the first walks, the first smiles and, before long, the first steps. Tartine et Chocolat baby clothes accompany every stage, from newborn to 4 years. Since 1977, the House has created a gentle, timeless wardrobe for little ones, where the softness of a fabric matters as much as the délicatesse of a finishing touch.

How should you dress baby every day?

Little ones cannot yet regulate their temperature as well as grown-ups. The simplest approach is to dress them in layers that can be added or removed throughout the day. A cotton Body forms the first layer, followed by trousers or a dress, a knitwear Cardigan and, for outings, a coat, a beanie and tights. Cool little hands suggest adding a layer; a damp neck suggests taking one off. For a little girl, our baby girl clothes include dresses and embroidered Blouses. For a little boy, we have designed equally cosy baby boy clothes, from corduroy trousers to a wool Cardigan.

Baby clothes in soft, fine fabrics

At Tartine et Chocolat, it all begins with the fabric. Cotton, whether in a light weave or as knitwear, accompanies baby throughout the year, while wool, corduroy and cashmere wrap them in warmth as the days grow shorter. Then come the finishing touches, understated and precious: embroidery at the collar, mother-of-pearl buttons, a frill that flutters with the slightest movement. Nothing restricts the kid's movements, and every piece is designed to last long enough to be handed down one day.

What size should you choose for baby?

Depending on the design, our baby clothes come in sizes from newborn to 4 years, including 1 month, 3, 6 and 9 months, 1 year and 18 months. The first months fly by, and many parents like to choose the next size up, especially for a coat or pajamas that need to last a whole season. The guide on each product page gives the measurements for each age. For the very first days, our selection of newborn clothes brings together pieces designed for the maternity ward and the journey home.

Baby clothes for special occasions and quiet days

A christening, wedding or family celebration calls for a special outfit. Our baby ceremony outfits bring together silk dresses with Smocks, shirts and Ecru outfits with golden details, in soft shades that suit the occasion's solemnity. Ordinary days have their charm too, when printed pajamas or a little knitwear cardigan are enough to turn a morning into a lovely memory.
