Fun, classic, funky and ethical kids clothes
I couldn't wait to tear open the packaging and get these clothes onto my kids when they arrived from independent London based children's label Question Everything.
Angie Adams started Question Everything in 2010, drawing inspiration from her experiences of different cultures and lifestyles and her love of interesting and fun colours, shapes and fabrics.
In my package was the Viola dress in size 1-2 years which was a perfect fit for my 20 month old daughter. Already quite into fashion, my girl loves the dress and instantly demanded to wear it!
Question Everything believes in supporting local communties. The smocking on the dress was traditionally hand sewn by ladies of the Batangas village community in Manila and a percentage of the sale of each item of clothing is donated to Childhope Asia in the Phillippines (a care and education programme for street children).
The detail really is amazing, and knowing that it has been hand sewn with such care makes the dress even more special.
The buttons are my daughter's favourites. Down the back are rainbow-striped buttons and there is a star-shaped button on the chest "To stand out in a crowd."
The pattern is bold, modern and ever so pretty - red and aqua hearts and black arrows. There is a very cute Peter Pan collar and a tie at the waist, which I pulled into a bow at the back. It's 100% cotton, lined and very light and comfortable. My girl (like most toddlers!) is very active and this dress allowed her to run happily with wild abandon whilst looking very stylish!
I would recommend these dresses without a doubt - they really are beautiful with such gorgeous detail.
The Viola dress retails at £38.99 although at the moment it's on sale - be quick!
The second item in my package was the extrememly cool Jake shirt.
The size 4-5 years was a good fit on my almost 4 year old son. The length is longer than the shirts he usually wears and I like this - it means he can wear it tucked in or untucked and it's loose and comfortable enough to not restrict his play (climbing. Jumping...)
My son was very happy with the print - tiny little skull and crossbones in yellow against the black cotton of the shirt. The white translucent buttons on this shirt are pretty special too and they look great, all down the front and on the pockets.
Again, because it's 100% cotton it was cool enough to wear even on a relatively sunny day.
This is another garment I'd definitely recommend or buy again, it's just such a cool funky shirt and it looks fantastic!
The Jake shirt usually retails at £25.99 but in the sale it's only £13.99 (what are you waiting for?!!)
I absolutely love this brand and it's easy to see why Question Everything was shortlisted in the Prima Baby & Pregnancy Awards 2015 and scooped up the bronze award in 2016.
If your child is already showing signs of being a little hipster, this is the brand for them. And if you're not sure how to style your QE garment, don't worry - there are tips on how to wear the clothes & what to team them with on the website too.
Now - did I mention that the Summer sale is on? Go! Go! Go!
