Bright colors and sustainable fabrics lead the way this year, alongside a continued appetite for licensed character apparel.
Color and print
Expect saturated primaries, playful gradients, and nostalgic pop-art references. Bold all-over prints continue to outperform small logo placements.
Materials
Sustainability moves from nice-to-have to expectation: recycled polyester in activewear, organic cotton in basics, and lower-impact dye processes.
Themes
- Licensed characters remain a core driver of demand
- Gender-neutral palettes keep expanding
- Comfort-first, play-ready silhouettes dominate
For brands, the takeaway is to pair the characters kids love with the materials and comfort parents increasingly require.
