Ds loves "Ben and Holly" everything about it is pink, it's about a boy and a girl but is all aimed for girls. I struggle because I want ds to wear things he genuinely likes, but also don't want people thinking "why's he wearing a girls top? "

DD is only 21m but I noticed once you get into 2-3 it becomes "little girl" clothes and it's all skinny jeans. I can't get a nappy under skinny jeans and how is she meant to move properly?! Girls (even baby girls) also don't seem to be allowed cargo trousers, DD's are all boys ones.

trilby little girls get to wear leggings though, which is massively practical except in winter.

tbh I never really encountered problems finding appropriate clothing until they get into older children's sizes - often weirdly labelled as the teen section despite starting at size 134cm, which is roughly age 8... Confused Then there are a lot of dodgy slogans and pics for both genders, in different ways.
