Rockabilly brought a lot of change to the music scene in the 50’s, and it took the fashion world by storm! These days rockabilly fashion is still worn by many, including children. For those of you that love rockabilly music and the edgy style of clothing that comes with it, here are some ideas for dressing your little one in rockabilly baby clothes.

First off you need the basics for dressing your baby; one pieces are a necessity for every baby’s wardrobe. Finding one pieces in dark colors is a good idea if you plan on making a perfect rockabilly outfit. A lot of online stores offer one pieces that have rockabilly inspired designs and also sell accessories for the outfit. One type of design to look for is a tattoo inspired one pieces; tattoos are a big part of the revived rockabilly style, as well as horror themed clothing – think zombies, brains, mummies and monsters.

Next you should accessorize; finding a dark jacket to resemble a leather jacket is a great idea to put together the greaser look that was popular in the 50’s. For little girls try finding polka dot clothes and stockings, and scarves that you can put around the waist of a skirt to complete the look.

Finally; no rockabilly baby outfit is complete without a stylish hair do. Slick your little boy’s hair back in a Johnny Cash “Folsom” style, or if his hair is long enough style it in a pompadour. Baby girls’ hair can be accessorized with clips, headbands, or scarves.

Dressing your baby in rockabilly fashion is a fun way to show off your unique taste in clothing and music style, don’t be afraid to get crazy with some of the outfits you come up with. Creativity is key. Enjoy what you love and share that love with your baby, you will love the memories you make together.
