13. New from Beechfield for autumn/ winter 2017 is the Junior Fair Isle Beanie (B456b), a 100% soft-spun acrylic hat. As Beechfield points out, children love beanies, and this style has additional appeal in the form of a fluffy, self-coloured pom-pom and Fair Isle pattern. It has a cuffed design, ideal for decoration, and a tear-away label for easy rebranding. It’s available in four colourways and there is a matching adults’ version. www.beechfield.com 14. Ralawise notes that the kidswear market is growing year-on-year, with stylish basics becoming a “huge trend”. Both Babybugz and Larkwood have striped tees for babies, which are also on-trend: the Baby Stripy Long Sleeve T (BZ038, pictured) from Babybugz has cute red elbow patches, while the Larkwood Short Sleeve Striped T-Shirt (LW27T) has a traditional white and navy stripe. Also from the distributor is the SF Minni Kids Reversible Workout Leggings (SM424), a new style for 2017 and available in a choice of two trendy prints. www.ralawise.com 15. The Comfy Co Kids All-In-One (CC001J) is a fun style made from a soft, cotton-faced fabric with a baggy fit for comfort and a tapered leg for “extra snugness”. Features include a single jersey lined hood, ribbed cuffs, twin- needle stitching detail, and kangaroo pouch pockets. Also from the brand is the Kids Contrast All-In-One (CC003J) with contrast sleeves, drawcords, cuffs and hood lining, and the Mini All-On- One (CC011J), which comes in sizes 12/18 months and 18/24 months, and has a vertical zip for easy dressing. www.comfyco.eu
