Dainty Wear for Tiny Tots

Local newspaper advert for children's clothing
Newspaper advert for children's clothing from 1940s

Loving the names of the children’s clothing from this advert in the Bromley & District Times from May 1940.

  • The Infant’s Art Spun Smock
  • Art Crepe Romper
  • Infant’s Dayella Gown
  • Boy’s Cotton Buster Suit
  • Girl’s Cotton Frock and Knicker Set
  • All Wool Matinee Coat

This shop also sold the classic Muslin Squares (still very much bought and used today) and of course Terry Squares – the forerunner to the modern day disposable nappy.
