Munchkin's New Layette Line Has a Very Smart Little Secret

Fans of Munchkin's sippy cups, cleaning and safety supplies, baby bath gear, and, well, everything else, will be thrilled to learn that the brand is launching Mbaby, its first-ever collection of infant apparel, this week. We got a sneak peek at a few of Mbaby's signature pieces and were wowed by the charming prints for baby boys and girls and ultrasoft brushed cotton rib and jersey fabrics — but most of all Mbaby's simple twist on your classic layette.

Thoughtful layering makes these pieces stand out. The Onester — designed for daytime wear — features a double-layered front to keep baby warm, while a breathable back evenly regulates his body temperature. The Sleepster has a built-in blanket with the same single-ply breathable back for a safe and snuggly night's sleep. We're also fans of the well-designed snap-bottom pieces, which have one center brass snap for easy alignment during diaper changes. Because when it comes to little people, it's the little things that count.

Check out the adorable new collection here, peruse the preview this afternoon on Gilt Groupe, and shop the line in its entirety on Friday, Jan. 24, on Munchkin.com.
