Autumn-Winter 2025-2026 promises a season full of softness and character. Baby and kids’ fashion focuses on comfort, natural materials and timeless looks that appeal to both parents and little ones. At Milk and Wool, we have analysed the main trends to offer you a selection of essentials to accompany your children throughout the season.
In this article, discover the key pieces, must-have colours and fabrics of the winter, as well as practical tips for dressing your children with elegance and comfort.
Teddy & boucle: the cocooning trend of the winter
Teddy and boucle fabrics are simply unmissable this winter. Soft, fluffy and comforting, they perfectly embody the cocooning spirit parents are looking for.
Baby teddy jackets and kids’ sherpa coats are making a strong comeback – practical and stylish at the same time. These pieces are perfect for facing the cold while remaining comfortable.
In our collection, the Andrea reversible jacket perfectly illustrates this trend. With its soft boucle texture and reversible design, it allows you to vary looks while remaining a must-have for the winter wardrobe.
Chunky knitwear: practical and elegant
Baby knit sweaters and kids’ cardigans are back in the spotlight. Knitwear is soft, breathable and easy to layer, making it the ideal companion for winter.
This season, we are seeing chunky ribs, cable knits and oversized cardigans for a comfortable and elegant style.
Velvet: the star fabric of Autumn-Winter 2025-2026
Whether plain velvet or corduroy, this fabric is everywhere this winter. It adds structure and elegance while remaining soft and pleasant to wear.
Baby velvet trousers or kids’ velvet jackets are must-haves of the season. This retro fabric is making a big comeback, reinterpreted in modern and comfortable cuts.
Matching sets: easy and stylish
Parents are increasingly turning to matching sets for babies and children. Practical, elegant and quick to put on, they allow you to create a harmonious outfit in the blink of an eye.
Whether in cotton, velvet or knit, these sets are perfect for everyday wear as well as outings.
Comfortable and unisex cuts
Children’s fashion is moving towards gender-neutral silhouettes, designed to suit both girls and boys. Loose cuts, oversized jackets and comfortable joggers offer great freedom of movement – essential to follow children in all their activities.
Colours of the season
Two palettes dominate baby and kids’ fashion for Autumn-Winter 2025:
- Natural and warm tones: beige, camel, chocolate, olive, sand. These timeless colours suit all outfits and bring a touch of refinement.
- Colour accents: mustard, deep red, forest green and even unexpected pastels such as powder pink or light blue. These shades brighten up children’s wardrobes and add joy to winter looks.
Practical tips for dressing baby this winter
Beyond fashion, parents above all look for comfort and practicality. Here are some useful tips:
- Layering is key: a soft cotton bodysuit, a knit sweater and a teddy jacket adapt to changing temperatures.
- Opt for warm materials.
- Choose loose cuts: they guarantee freedom of movement and greater durability (children can wear them longer).
- Go for unisex pieces: practical for siblings or for passing clothes on.
