The Children's Wardrobe Essentials Guide

Building our children's locker room is an art of balance. Between fast-paced school days, weekend adventures and family celebrations, clothing must be an ally: sturdy for the playground, comfortable for naptime, and always imbued with that touch of poetry that makes up the DNA of Bonton.

The idea is not to increase purchases, but to build a guardDress capsule of 12 essentials. Interchangeable parts, “Bonton” colors and natural materials that develop a patina over time. Here is our guide to organizing your children's wardrobe according to the moments of their life.

At School: Comfort at the Service of Learning

For school, clothing must be forgotten to make room for concentration and games. We focus on “all-terrain” materials and cuts that don’t slow down any movement.

The Sweatshirt Signature

The Sweatshirt is the king of the class. At Bonton, we work it in a Fleece thick and ultra soft. Whether plain, with a mischievous message or with our iconic logo, it is the comforting shield to face the day.

The Straight jeans: The timeless

Denim is every child's traveling companion. We favor quality canvases that develop a patina over time. Well-cut jeans are a timeless child which goes through the seasons without aging.

The Blouse or the Shirt in Cotton

To bring a touch of “Bonton” to everyday life, the Blouse or the Shirt in Poplin cotton is essential. It is worn under a Sweatshirt to let a Collar collar or alone from the first rays of sun.

The Weekend: Adventure in Complete Freedom

Saturday and Sunday are all about exploring. Whether for a walk in the forest or an afternoon in the park, the wardrobe is more flexible thanks to the principle of layering.

The Work Jacket

Inspired by vintage wardrobe, this little jacket in sturdy cotton canvas is the perfect alternative to Coat heavy. It looks crazy and has large pockets to hide treasures found along the way (pebbles, chestnuts, secrets).

The Cardigan in Mesh or Cardigan

It’s the ultimate nomadic piece. Easy to slip into a backpack, the Cardigan Bonton in mixed knit provides the necessary warmth on cool mornings. We love it for its versatility: it calms a Dress party or wake up a simple t-shirt.

The T-shirt in Organic cotton

The essentials of the essentials. We favor organic fibers for healthy contact with the skin. White, Grey mottled or colored, it is the basis of all Looks of the weekend.

Les Jours de Fête: The Chic that doesn’t take itself seriously

Birthdays, weddings or Sundays with grandparents... For these precious moments, Bonton reinvents elegance. Here, no rigid suits, but a casual-chic look.

The Dress Bohemian or the Trousers Color

For girls, a Dress fluid with exclusive prints (the famous Liberty or our star patterns); for boys, colorful chinos. Elegance lies in the cut and chromatic boldness, far from two-tone clichés.

The Shoes of Character

Whether colorful canvas sneakers or small Shoes in soft leather, the Bonton shoe completes the silhouette. It must be elegant and comfortable to last the day.

Time for Rest: Softness and Reverie

Because style doesn't stop at the bedroom door, the night changing room is just as neat.

The Pajamas in Poplin or Jersey

Good sleep starts with a material that breathes. Our pajamas are designed like real loungewear, with prints that stimulate the imagination before falling asleep.

The 12 Essentials: The Ideal Locker Room Checklist

Here is the summary of the custodyDress Bonton capsule, organized by moments of life for a perfect mix & match:

For school: A Sweatshirt very soft fleece, a pretty Trousers retro Velvet and a small Blouse/Shirt for the detail that makes the difference

The Art ofCare : Bringing Clothing to Life

A Bonton essential is a garment that is intended to be passed down. So that the elder's coins benefit the younger, a Care care is necessary:

Reasonable washing: 30°C is enough. Always wash inside out to protect the brand's iconic colors.

Natural drying: The great outdoors is our fibers’ best friend. Avoid tumble drying to preserve elasticity and softness.

The transmission: Our clothes are designed to last. When they become too small, give them a second life by giving them away or reselling them. 

Grow in complete freedom

The ideal children's wardrobe is not the one that follows all the trends, but the one that allows your child to be himself. By choosing these 12 essentials from Bonton, you build a guardDress coherent, lasting and joyful.
