Unisex baby clothes earn their place twice – once for this baby, and again for the next, whoever they turn out to be. Muslin rompers, corduroy overalls, ribbed sets and chunky knits in soft neutral shades, sizes newborn to 24 months.
Keeping the gender a surprise doesn't mean waiting to shop. Unisex newborn clothes let you get organised before Bub arrives: a few snap or zip onesies for easy nappy changes, two or three rompers and one warm layer like the Knit Baby Bear Onesie. Everything else can wait until you know what you actually need.
Once Bub arrives, browse our baby girl clothes or baby boy clothes collections too.

For hot days, choose light muslin and cotton – the Seashell Shorts Set and Muslin Pocket Jumpsuit are made for summer. When it cools down, corduroy overalls, ribbed sets and chunky knits layer easily over a short-sleeve onesie.
Sage, oat, cream, white, grey and mustard are the usual neutrals. Earthy shades like rust and tan also work for either a girl or a boy, and they hide marks better than white.
Yes – especially if the parents aren't sharing the gender. A newborn-size romper or knit set is a safe choice, or size up to 3–6 months so it still fits after the first wave of gifts. See our baby gifts collection for more ideas.
