Baby Clothes

Hello!
I'm not a mum yet but I'm doing my college project on baby clothes and I need some professional opinions
I would like to ask you to answer few questions for me.
If you had a choice would you buy for your baby a traditional babygrow or one which could 'grow together' with your child?
If you chose the 'growing one' would you prefer it to be one extendable piece or rather one main part with changeable bits like i.e. feet?
Would you mind if baby clothes were made from biodegradable fabric, which still would be as delicate as cotton?
Would you prefer the enlarging babygrow which requires alteration by the parent i.e. taking off too small parts and ironing on new ones or you'd rather chose solution like additional row of poppers etc.?
While choosing clothes for your baby do you go for traditional designs i.e. pink for a girl, blue for a boy etc or choose something more original and uncoventional?

Thank you in advance for all replies!

Marta

I think you need to separate your q's out a bit or use something like survey monkey but to answer you:

A babygrow - they last my baby about 3 months and aren't that expensive anyway.

If you chose the 'growing one' would you prefer it to be one extendable piece or rather one main part with changeable bits like i.e. feet?

n/a

Would you mind if baby clothes were made from biodegradable fabric, which still would be as delicate as cotton?

No

N/a. I'm not sure many new mums would have time for all this faff for the sake of a babygrow.

While choosing clothes for your baby do you go for traditional designs i.e. pink for a girl, blue for a boy etc or choose something more original and uncoventional?

Depends, what do you mean by original and unconventional?

I prefer brighter colours and patterns, so mine tend to be in red, orange, purple, green, that kind of thing. I like the bold patterns of Scandinavian babywear (see www.nordickids.co.uk for the sort of thing I mean) but can't afford to buy it new and it rarely comes up on eBay.
