Intro

Toddler fashion's changing super fast, and 2026 is bringing some cool new trends that are all about being unique and eco-friendly. 👕🌱 

Parents are really thinking about what they dress their kids in these days. 👶 2025 was the year of nudes coloured toddler outfits, particularly the comfy kind, like thick cotton joggers and jumpers.

But, it's changing in a significant way... ✨

First off, what's staying?

... Handmade Kids Clothes

Parents are still really looking for stuff that's not just cute but also unique to them! 

Add your own touches to our designs at Little Flower Knit, with a name, or message us to ask for something specific!

Benefits of Handmade Clothing

First off, the quality is usually way better.

Each piece is made with care - most of us are absolute perfectionists, so they tend to last a long time, which is super important for active little ones.

Plus, handmade clothes are unique. Get in touch if you have ideas, or you'd like to add something special to one of our designs. 

We only use high quality materials, which means - comfy, safe, and long-lasting!

It's all UK locally sourced, 🇬🇧🌱so is much better for the environment, than anything you'll find on a big shop website, or in-store.

... Pastel clothing items

We all know about Millenial grey, but have you heard of millennial green? Beige was also a favourite. 

Clothing styles in 2026

... More colours, yay!

We still expect beige to continue as a favourite, but with more colours returning. Deep purples, and greens have already been requested for early Jan orders. We're stocked up on all your favourites, and cant wait to see which designs you choose for them!

... Less gender-specific styles

This year, we saw the beginning of this, with girls exploring fields in their tractor themed knit, and boys picking flowers with our floral garden design.

We expect to see more old-fashioned norms being broken, personalities being shown, and kids just getting to be themselves! 🥰

... Toddler outfit themes

While we saw one colour, matched from head to toe, this year's kids outfits will be far more flashy. Get ready to see fun prints like animals, flowers, and geometric shapes. 🤩🥳 Mixing and matching patterns is getting more popular.

Our tip for parents: balance bold patterns with subtle colors to make outfits look good together.

... Cardigans with Collars

This one may be a little niché, but it's looking like cardigans with collars are back for 2026... Your gran will be pleased!

They make everyday outfits look a bit more fancy while still being practical. Pair these cardigans with simple pants or skirts for an effortlessly chic look.

... Far more interest in customising

I'm probably the most excited about this one... Everyone has such great ideas now. If there's something on your mind, just message, and we'll see what we can do!
