Petit Bateau provides a fundamental part of the classic French wardrobe from cradle to teen and beyond: the T-shirt, cut close to the body, with smallish shoulders (they work equally well with school uniforms or vintage Chanel). The high-grade cotton clothes follow designs that haven't changed in decades—onesies and pajamas for newborns, T-shirts that change color for every season, underwear sets, and dresses with tiny straps for summer. Stock up—if you can find this brand back home, the prices are sure to be higher.
