A baby's skin is more sensitive than an adult's, and what they wear in those first weeks and months matters more than most people expect. Cashmere baby clothes offer something that cotton and synthetic alternatives don't: a natural fiber that is genuinely soft, temperature-regulating, and gentle enough for skin that's never known anything else. Our baby cashmere collection is built around that idea. Two carefully made pieces, a beanie and a blanket, crafted from the same responsibly sourced Mongolian cashmere we use across everything we make.
For a newborn, a new parent, or someone looking for a gift that will actually be used, this is the place to start.
Most parents know that newborn skin is sensitive, but the difference between fabrics isn't always obvious until you feel it. Cashmere for babies works because of what the fiber is: an extremely fine natural hair, finer than wool, that sits softly against the skin without the roughness or pilling that cheaper knits develop over time. It also breathes naturally, which helps regulate a baby's body temperature without the risk of overheating that heavier synthetic fabrics carry.
The Bruny Blanket and Cos Beanie are both made from 100% pure cashmere, selected for their fineness. There are no blended materials, no synthetic padding. Just fiber that has been responsibly sourced and handled with care from the start.
The collection is intentionally small. A cashmere newborn outfit doesn't need to be complicated to be meaningful, and these two pieces cover the essentials with a level of softness you won't find in standard baby ranges.
The Cos Beanie is sized for newborns and comes in three gentle colors: Sky, Petal, and Bubbles. It's the kind of hat that goes on a baby and stays on, soft enough not to cause irritation around the face and head where newborn skin is most reactive. The Bruny Blanket is a full cashmere baby blanket, available in the same color palette, designed to be used as a swaddle, a stroller layer, or a nursery throw. Its weight is right for newborns and remains practical well into toddlerhood.
For families who already own pieces from our wider cashmere blanket collection, the Bruny Blanket uses the same fiber quality and comes in colors that sit naturally alongside the adult range.
A cashmere baby outfit is one of the most considered gifts you can bring to a new parent. It's soft in a way that gets noticed the moment it's touched, practical enough to be used from the first days home, and built to last longer than most things in a baby's wardrobe. The Cos Beanie and Bruny Blanket work well together as a set, and their shared color palette (Sky, Petal, Bubbles) makes them easy to give as a matched pair without needing to know the nursery color scheme in advance.
For a more complete gift, our cashmere socks are another option for keeping small feet warm in pure cashmere. They make a practical addition to a gift bundle alongside the beanie and blanket.
If you're putting together a gift for both the baby and the new parents, our cashmere pillows are a thoughtful addition for the home. New parents spend a lot of time on sofas and armchairs in those early weeks, and a cashmere cushion is one of the small comforts that actually gets used.
For families who travel with young children, our cashmere travel accessories include lightweight options that work well on long journeys with a baby, where softness and warmth in a compact form make a real difference.
Yes. High-quality cashmere is one of the safer fabric choices for newborns precisely because it's a pure natural fiber with no synthetic coatings or chemical treatments. The key is quality: 100% pure cashmere from a reputable source is fine and smooth enough to wear against newborn skin without irritation. Lower-grade cashmere or blended fabrics that include synthetic fibers are more likely to cause discomfort, which is why sourcing matters. Our baby pieces use the same responsibly sourced Mongolian cashmere as our adult collection, and nothing else.
The main benefits are softness, temperature regulation, and durability. Cashmere is finer than wool, which means it sits against skin without the scratchiness that makes many natural fabrics unsuitable for babies. It also breathes naturally, helping a baby stay warm without overheating, which is a genuine concern with thicker synthetic or fleece alternatives. And because cashmere is a durable fiber when cared for properly, a cashmere baby blanket or hat tends to outlast the phase it was bought for, making it one of the more practical investments in a baby's wardrobe.
Cashmere is a good material for babies when it's genuinely pure. The fiber's natural properties, fineness, breathability, and softness, make it well suited to sensitive skin at any age, and newborn skin in particular. The consideration most parents have is cost, which is fair. But a single well-made cashmere piece tends to hold up through multiple children and multiple seasons in a way that cheaper alternatives don't. For a blanket or a beanie that will see daily use in the first year, the per-wear cost over time is often lower than it looks.
Cashmere baby clothes should be hand-washed in cool water with a gentle, wool-safe detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric. Instead, press the water out gently and reshape the piece while it's damp, then lay it flat on a clean towel to dry. Machine washing on a delicate cycle is possible with a mesh laundry bag, but hand-washing is safer for maintaining the fiber's softness over time. Avoid heat from dryers or direct sunlight, both of which can cause shrinkage or damage the fiber structure.
The Cos Beanie and Bruny Blanket are both designed with newborns in mind, but they remain practical well beyond the newborn stage. The beanie fits the early months, and the Bruny Blanket, given its size and weight, works as a swaddle or stroller layer for newborns and transitions naturally into a nursery throw or lap blanket as the baby grows. Many parents find it stays in rotation for two years or more.
As your baby grows and you start thinking about adding more pieces to the family's cashmere wardrobe, our women's and men's ranges cover everything from knitwear to cashmere bottoms made from the same quality fiber. It's a natural next step for parents who want the same softness for themselves.
