Denim pieces and when to wear them

- Denim jacket: the lightweight layer for spring and autumn; some have a hood.
Size
A baby measuring 69–71 cm wears size 6-9 months; from 75 to 83 cm, size 12-18 months. Denim stretches less than knit, so if you're unsure between sizes, choose the larger one and make use of the adjustable waist.
Combinations
Denim goes with printed T-shirts, polo shirts or shirts. A denim jacket over a T-shirt and knit shorts is an easy, complete look.
To look after them, wash inside out, cold and with similar colours, without tumble drying; the first few times, better separately. That way the denim doesn't go stiff or fade. Always follow the care label. Well looked after, these pieces can easily be handed down to younger siblings.
A denim jacket one size up?
Yes: a denim jacket is worn over other clothes, so one size up leaves room for a jumper and gives you several more months' wear.
