"I wanted to design baby clothes that not only look beautiful but also feel comfortable. That became Moalie"
— Danielle, NICU nurse
A pair of linen shorts with a delicate stripe. Linen is breathable and cooling — it allows heat to pass through rather than trapping it. The wooden buttons at the front give the shorts a calm, artisanal finish. The waistband is soft and stretchy, so it doesn’t press into a round baby tummy.
Linen that keeps you cool
Linen is one of the most breathable fabrics available. It absorbs moisture, dries quickly, and remains airy against the skin — exactly what a baby needs on warm days. The material softens with every wash. A slight wrinkle is part of its charm; that’s linen, not a flaw.
Wooden decorative buttons
The wooden buttons at the front are purely decorative, not for fastening. The soft waistband does the work: step in, pull up, done. No fumbling while your baby kicks around.
Made in the Netherlands
These shorts are handmade in the Netherlands by a designer with years of experience working for renowned children’s fashion brands. This craftsmanship shows in the finishing: the seams, the alignment of the stripe, the way the leg openings are finished. Each piece is made individually, not mass-produced.

Frequently asked questions
Are the shorts suitable for a newborn?
Yes. They start at size 50 and the waistband is soft and wide, so it doesn’t press into the tummy. Step in and pull up — dressing is quick and easy.
Does linen irritate the baby’s skin?
No. This linen is lightweight and softens with every wash. Linen lies loosely on the skin and allows air to circulate, making it cool and comfortable — even in warm weather.
Why handmade?
Each piece is individually handmade in the Netherlands by an experienced designer. This results in a finish you won’t find in mass production — in the seams, the stripe alignment, and the fall of the leg openings.
How do the sizes fit?
The shorts fit true to size. Choose your baby’s current size for a comfortable fit.

The story behind the collection
Designed by hands that know the craft
The handmade collection was not created behind a screen. It was conceived at a table, with fabric between the fingers, by someone who has worked for decades at renowned international children’s brands as a creative director and head designer.
Together with his wife — a graphic designer — he creates small, carefully curated collections for Moalie. Handmade in the Netherlands. In limited editions. Each piece crafted with the calm and precision that reflects what Moalie believes: that the first months of life deserve the finest care.
No mass production. No compromises. Only pieces to cherish — and pass on.
