Wonderfully soft baby bodysuit made of stretchy bourette silk jersey

Do something especially good for your baby's skin.


100% organic Peace silk, natural white: undyed


Runs very small! We recommend ordering two sizes larger.

Will shrink a little when washed.


Silk has a soothing and healing effect on the skin and absorbs up to 30% of its own weight in moisture without feeling damp or drying out the skin. It is highly elastic, breathable, and temperature-regulating, making it ideal for allergy sufferers.


The high content of silk glue (sericin) in bourette silk has a skin-soothing and anti-inflammatory effect. Babies and children with atopic dermatitis or psoriasis may struggle to control their skin from scratching, especially at night. Give your child comfortable wear and protection from scratching without restricting their freedom of movement.


Link to the study


ALKENA's natural textiles are produced in China, the traditional land of silk. New projects for the production of organic silk have been developed at various locations. The production facilities (spinning, dyeing, knitting, weaving, and sewing) are GOTS-certified and regularly audited for social sustainability by the Fair Wear Foundation . This ensures the highest possible standard for ecological and social sustainability.



Care instructions

We recommend hand washing at 30°C with tenestar as the most gentle method. For heavily soiled silk, you can also wash it at 60°C. The more often and at higher temperatures you wash natural fibers, the faster they become brittle.
