Clothes That Grow As Your Kids Do

Image: Petit Pli


I used to buy lovely clothes for my kids when they were little but many of the outfits were only worn a few times before they were outgrown and given away. My favourite item was a sturdy pair of lined OshKosh overalls that had rollup cuffs and adjustable straps. Both my boys got a lot of wear out of them and they were still in good shape when I passed them on to a friend with younger children. 
Now Ryan Mario Yasin, a trained aeronautical engineer and founder of Petit Pli, has developed garments that grow with children, prolonging the life of the product and impacting the fashion industry at large. Accordion-like inner structures allow the garments to stretch, while cinched cuffs and silicone grippers hold them in place. And each piece is constructed from seven recycled water bottles!
