"This is such a beautiful dress. I have it for my daughter in pink, but I look back at the Cambridge Baby site every few weeks and think about buying more in different sizes/colours! It's really versatile and can be basically lived in year-round. Over the past few months my daughter has worn it by itself, with a top or jumper layered underneath, and with a cardigan over the top. The boiled wool is lightweight and soft, and can be worn into the spring and summer. It's even great for muddy garden play. Just hang the dress up for a few hours until the mud dries and then brush it off - good as new!

I've knocked off one star, only because it could have washed better. I fully intended to never wash this dress and only ever spot-clean. However, after an unfortunate and dramatic vomiting situation (in the middle of Disneyland no less...) I was left with no choice. Luckily, the shrinkage was very minimal, but the dress does now curl up slightly at the ends. I don't think it's really a fault "

This was washed... Shrunk and curled up a little with washing. Only wash if absolutely necessary!

"The colours on these are so lovely that they're almost wasted being worn as vests, and I've been happy to be able to use them as tops now the weather is a little warmer. They are light and cool and wonderfully silky-smooth to the touch. Great to protect baby's skin from the sun without overheating."

"I bought the size 6-12 months for my average sized baby (I think he was about 6 months old at the time). They are still big for him at 8 months, but the legs roll up easily and I think they'll be a perfect fit next winter. These dungarees are so adorable and snuggly that I'm actually kind of sad that the weather is getting warmer and he won't be able to wear them for a while!

Perfect over cloth nappies (plenty of room). I soaked them in lanolin solution to increase the water resistance and they can be hung to air without washing if there's a little bit of wee leakage, just like a wool soaker. A couple of hours in the outside air and they're fresh and clean just like magic!"

"This is such a gorgeous coat and if they made them in adult sizes I'd probably buy 3! It's incredibly soft and airy. It's warm but also reasonably thin so could be layered under waterproofs or a boiled wool jacket. I love how it looks like a "fancy coat" but I don't need to be precious about it. Dirt, sand, food, etc, all brush off easily. The cuffs roll well, so I recommend sizing up to get the most wear."

"I love Cambridge Baby and has purchased some really lovely items. This is my only slight 'miss' so far, which is really a credit to them!

It's a beautiful jumper and the buttons are really handy for a baby who hates getting dressed. However, two of the buttons are coming loose after a few months of wear, and I've found it pills more than other merino baby items I've purchased. It ends up looking ratty quite quickly and needs a go with the fabric shaver after each few wears. I'm not unhappy with it (it looks gorgeous on my baby and I can fix up the buttons and the pilling) but I'll probably choose a different jumper next time he needs one."

"These are great for babies over cloth nappies. They have enough stretch to fit with room to spare and without compressing the nappy and causing leaks. Lovely soft, light material that my 8-month-old can wear on warmer days to protect his skin without overheating. They air out really well between wears, considering they're not 100% wool, and rarely need washing. My spouse even accidentally put them in the 40 degree wash with no apparent shrinkage (not that I'd recommend it!)"
