Somewhere between a nappy change and a row of stubborn snaps, wrestling my daughter into something scratchy, I started wondering why the thing babies live in almost every hour of the day was so badly thought through.
She practically lived in onesies that first year. Sleeping, playing, learning the world, all in one small garment against her skin. So it seemed fair to ask a lot of it.
I wanted it soft. Properly soft, the kind you press to your cheek before you press it to theirs. I wanted to know exactly what was in it, because organic cotton that's been independently tested for harmful substances isn't a nice-to-have when the fabric spends sixteen hours a day against brand new skin. And I wanted it to actually work at 3am: a two-way zip that opens from the bottom so you never have to undress a sleeping baby, a guard so the zip never meets their chin, foldable mittens for feet that lose socks and hands that find faces.
Then there's the part I love most. I design every print myself, and I make them whimsical on purpose. Small worlds worth looking at, tucked into something you're going to see a hundred times a day. Because babyhood is brief and strange and wonderful, and it deserves better than another sad beige onesie.
