Long thin baby clothes

[lobsters]

Having spent years looking for short, fat adult clothes, I now need to find long, thin baby clothes for my 8 month DD. We're having problems with trousers being really big at the waist, and tops/ vests so wide they fall off at the shoulder, but not being long enough. Can anyone recommend where to buy clothes for the longer, thiner baby?

cheaper version at any big french supermarche

I second Petit Bateau

French children's clothes in general tend to be made for thinner children - try Vertbaudet too

H&M and No Added Sugar are great for skinny kids.

la redoute and H & M. Never Asda or tesco, your child would have to be practically obese to fit the waist and leg length at the same time there.

Bugger, just back from a holiday in France, and was too busy reeling from the price of food now to look at baby clothes in supermarket. Will pop into H&M and find Le Petit Bateau.

Currently just trying to decide whether it's worth buying 9-12 months sleepsuits, or move straight to 12-18 months given how long the 6-9 months have lasted.

My 21 month DD was and still is long and thin- I find Polarn O Pyret (shops in Kingston and guildford and in some House of Frasers) really good as some of their trousers you can adjust the waistband. H & M are also fab. My DD is still wearing PoP leggings size 80 (I think it's for 9-12 months) as they are super long! the Swedish lady in PoP told me that most Scandinavian makes cater for long and thin babies- you can try Nordic Kids website too. For sleepsuits I just got their actual age size from M & S and wasn't too fussed about the waist size but poor DD's skirts and trousers fall down when she runs around if I get the 1.5-2 year sizes!
