Children's clothing needs to withstand daily wear, feel comfortable and suit the season. Even so, choosing the right items online is not always easy. An attractive photo or familiar brand name tells you little about a garment's fit, composition or care requirements.
In this guide from the Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, we look at what to consider when choosing girls' clothing, boys' clothing and gender-inclusive clothing. You will also find practical examples of Chicco children's clothing and Tommy Hilfiger children's clothing in different sizes.
Age indications are useful as a first guide, but children do not all grow in the same way. For example, size 92 may fit a child of around 24 months, while their build may still require a different fit.
Therefore, always check:
For baby clothing, your child's height is often a more reliable starting point than the age shown on the label.
A fabric containing 95% cotton and 5% elastane can offer comfortable stretch and retain its shape more effectively. That is practical for a children's T-shirt, bodysuit or pyjamas. A composition of 80% cotton, 16% polyester and 4% elastane has different properties when it comes to durability and care.
So do not just look for words such as “soft” or “breathable”; check the exact material composition. According to the product information, several Chicco items are made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane. The Chicco dungaree skirt is listed as 80% cotton, 16% polyester and 4% elastane.
Children's clothing is washed frequently. The wrong temperature, tumble-drying setting or ironing temperature can cause shrinkage, colour loss or distortion. Many products simply state that you should follow the instructions on the care label. This means checking the label when your order arrives rather than relying solely on the product photo.
For some Tommy Hilfiger product information, a light grey hoodie is listed as suitable for washing at 30 °C, not suitable for tumble-drying and ironing at a low temperature. Always check the physical label, as care requirements may vary between versions.
Choose children's clothing based on height and body measurements, not just labels such as “baby”, “toddler” or “8 years”. For some gender-inclusive models, Tommy Hilfiger lists sizes from 98 to 152, linked to age groups. Use this table as a guide and compare the measurements with a garment that fits well.
Also consider the style:
For everyday wear, fabrics containing a little elastane are often practical because they move with the child. 100% organic cotton may be appealing if you are specifically looking for organic cotton children's clothing, but check how the item is finished and what care it requires.
The product information for the Tommy Hilfiger Essential Hoodie and Essential Sweatshirt lists organic cotton as the main material. It also mentions rib-knit trims and a gender-inclusive design for these items. Do not regard “comfort” and “durability” as guaranteed personal experiences; the ultimate suitability depends on fit, use and care.
A pocket, elasticated waist or fastening can make everyday use easier. For example, a hoodie with a kangaroo pocket provides storage for small items, while a crew neck on a sweatshirt makes layering simple.

We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
Use this quick checklist before placing your order:
Measure your child without thick clothing. Above all, compare their height in centimetres with the brand's size chart. For tops, also check chest and shoulder measurements. With baby clothing, fastenings and extra room for a nappy can affect the fit.
This depends on the fabric, construction, growth rate and care. A garment with ribbed trims or a small amount of elastane can be practical for everyday movement. Wash according to the label and only use a tumble dryer when permitted.
Not necessarily. Organic cotton may suit your material preferences, but you should also consider the size, finish, care requirements and intended use. Check that the claim is supported in the product information, for example by stating that the cotton is certified organic.
