It's never too late to start shopping with a conscience. So we've found all the best stores in Singapore where you can shop eco-friendly fashion for kids.
We’ve said this before, and we’ll say it again. Going green is the best thing we can do for Mother Earth. It may not be easy, but we can certainly play our part, from our clothing choices to our consumption of food. Switching to organic food isn’t just sustainable; it’s healthy too! And any leftovers can be put to use at food banks. But, back to the fun stuff: fashion. There are ways to shop for clothes responsibly, such as swapping instead of shopping. But if secondhand shopping just isn’t for you, check out these sustainable clothes for kids in Singapore that are both eco-friendly and fashionable. Don’t forget to also donate old clothes when the kids have grown out of them!
Where to buy sustainable clothing for kids in Singapore
1. Nimbu
Introducing Nimbu, where sustainability meets style! Based in Singapore, this circular brand specialising in vibrant, handcrafted cotton clothing for kids. Its designs are conceptualised locally, reflecting the vibrant culture of Singapore, and then brought to life by skilled artisans in India. Every piece is crafted with care and dedication, ensuring both quality and sustainability. If there’s one homegrown brand that’s all about being sustainable, it’s this one – it does that via collaborative consumption, which in turn aims to significantly slow down fast fashion. How?

3. Maison Q
If you haven’t tried the adorable, reversible shirts and dresses from local brand Maison Q, you need to jump on the bandwagon right now! Originating back in 2015, the idea to extend the use of a rapidly growing children’s wardrobe was inspired by Founder Su’s experiences with her own kids. The designs are all created by a talented team of artisans in Indonesia, from super high quality fabrics in the most beautiful original prints. Best bit: The whole family can match together!

Frugi was founded on a basis of being as ethically and environmentally responsible as possible, a sustainable fashion brand true and true. Kudos! All items are manufactured in India, Sri Lanka, Turkey, China and Portugal using organic cotton. That means you can be assured that the clothes are super soft and kinder to the skin. We are so in love with the reversible outfits. Perfect for accidental and unexpected spills! Plus, the nifty adjustable button-up straps and waistbands will ensure that your kids can continue wearing the clothes as they grow.
