The summer 2024 edition of INDX Kids will take place at Cranmore Park on Sunday 30 June and Monday 1 July 2024, offering independent childrenswear boutiques, department stores and category specialists an expert edit of both UK and international brands.
From key returning names and market leaders to the latest emerging labels, the two-day event will present the latest ranges from 130 brands across children’s clothing, occasionwear, footwear and accessories. Here we bring you some highlights of what INDX Kids has to offer in the baby sector; everything from layette, sleepwear and toddler fashion to gifts and nursery accessories.
BamBam
New this season from Dutch brand BamBam (pictured top) includes a recycled rabbit tuttle, cuddle, and slippers, as well as a new beige colourway in its bestselling socks. Furthermore, all of the brand’s products are packaged to provide instant gifts for little ones.
Bibbilyboo
Bibbilyboo creates award-winning waterproof dribble bibs offering contemporary design and practical solutions. Thanks to a waterproof backing, cotton front and eco bamboo core, one bib is designed to absorb enough dribble to last the day whilst never letting it pass through to clothing, eliminating dribble rashes as well as helping parents reduce laundry.
Blues Baby
Blues Baby is reacting to buying trends by offering a never-out-of-stock collection that comes complete with a gift box. You’ll find luxurious plush all-in-ones and two-piece sets which sit alongside an on-seasonal trend toddler collection up to four years.

The new Fable & Bear collection continues to offer the timeless characters that are known and loved as part of the Fable & Bear world, with the addition of a new lion character joining the range this season. The brand is also introducing matching adultwear. In keeping with the monotone, unisex and animal aesthetic, the new leopard print jumper is perfect for matching back with little ones. The brand’s accessories, including a range of hats, mitts and booties, provide an ideal gift, and can also be styled with a Fable & Bear jumper or romper.

Best known for the iconic stem leaf print, Orla has now developed a range of babywear in her iconic prints underpinned by the need for longer-lifespan clothing.
