First Stitch

Maybe it’s just me, but the new dragon-inspired ‘Legend Has It’ print is utterly adorable! Even better, it’s available in designs for all ages, yes, even for the littlest ones (the smallest sized baby romper is 55cm). Prefer something less obviously dragon year? The (also) new Birds of Paradise print is a an instant classic that can’t go wrong! Shop Online, and at 58 Seng Poh Road #01-21 Singapore 160058

Gabe

If you’re going to bai nian with an infant, make it a win-win situation by dressing them in the seriously cute Radiant Joy Playsuit. Made with breathable material that’s gentle on Baby’s delicate skin, this unisex wrap-around makes diaper changes easy, even when you’re on the move. For everyone else in the family, there’s the tangerine New Beginnings range that’s perfect, as you can see above, for a happy family photoshoot. Shop Online

We’d face every fire while clad in the vibrant Dragon series, stay cool in the Chinese Motif series, and party on in the Garden series. Does this sound like we’ll have to buy something from each series that Le Petit Society has created for this Lunar New Year? Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps wink P/S: There are matching pet bandanas so fur-kids can twin along with the family too! Shop Online
