Luxury Baby Clothes, Why Buy Organic?

At Little Beau, we're going organic with our luxury baby clothes. Are you? One farmer from Benin in Africa explains "While organic farming is more difficult, it saves lives from not using pesticides, we no longer have debt problems. Income is all profit at the end of the season." So not only do we have easy access to organic cotton clothing, at the same time we are supporting farmers growing the cotton. Organic cotton used in luxury baby clothes has been cultivated for thousands of years, but only in the last decade have we decided to certify it organic. This is mainly due to growing concerns from the general public and environmental campaigners about the use of pesticides, insecticides and genetically modified seed used in the production and cultivation of cotton. Little Beau recognises the value of organic products and seek to offer choice, quality and value in all our organic children's clothing.

Growing organic cotton is not an easy task. By using chemicals, the yield of the cotton is increased by 20% and standardises quality. By growing cotton organically, natural processes are used to protect the crop. This in turn carries a higher risk and makes the supply more unpredictable, resulting in organic cotton products being more expensive, which in turn is passed onto the consumer.

Cotton is a natural fibre and so much better than horrid manmade fibres such as nylon or polyester. Did you know that in order to produce the average T-shirt or pair or jeans, a whole pound of fertilizers and pesticides are used in the production of each garment? This does not compare to a garment made of pure, soft and breathable organic cotton. There are so many reasons for buying organic cotton, but one of the main reasons is that there is evidence to suggest that chemical residues left in conventional cotton clothing can be absorbed through the skin. This would be of particular concern to expectant mothers and those with babies and small children and explains why so much of the organic cotton produced goes into making clothing for babies and children. The quality of organic cotton is undoubtedly brilliant, the soft, durable and breathable fibres are excellent for little ones and there are many exceptionally well designed products on the market. For babies and children, we particularly like the brands Aravore Babies, Organics for Kids and Bamboo Baby.

What needs to be recognised is the fact that buying organic cotton is better for our planet by not leaving any toxins to pollute the soil or water or kill any wildlife.

Did you know that approximately 20,000 cotton workers are killed each year from contamination (World Health Organisation)?

We must all take responsibility for our environment and limit the damage that is being done to our planet. By buying organic cotton and food we are showing that we care.
