Summer has arrived, and for those who are expecting or have just welcomed a newborn, it's the perfect time to prepare the summer layette. The hottest months (like June, July, and August) call for light, breathable, and practical clothing and accessories—always with special attention to style and quality. In this guide, you'll discover the essential items to face the heat with greater peace of mind and safety, along with our helpful tips and direct links to our selection on CorredoItaliano.com.

1. Lightweight Rompers and Onesies: The Summer Must-Have

The most versatile piece in a summer newborn layette? Definitely the short romper, made from lightweight cotton or linen. Cool, comfortable, and easy to wear, it's perfect for both daytime and evening.

Helpful tips from our staff:

  • Choose styles with crotch openings to make diaper changes easier.

  • Natural fabrics help prevent irritation and excess sweating.

  • For baby girls, summer dresses with matching bloomers add a chic feminine touch, even on the hottest days.

2. Lightweight Bodysuits and Breathable Socks

A short-sleeved or sleeveless cotton bodysuit is the foundation of every summer change. You’ll need at least 7–10 to get through the week, given how often babies need changing (yes, they feel the heat and sweat too!).

Helpful tips from our staff:

  • Choose bodysuits with side openings for the first few weeks, then switch to envelope-style ones.

  • Lightweight pure cotton socks are essential to protect little feet without making them sweat.

3. Sun Hats and Summer Blankets

During summer outings, your newborn needs proper protection:

  • A sun hat with a visor or chin strap is a must for walks.

  • A lightweight cotton or muslin blanket is perfect for the stroller or air-conditioned environments.
