Adler of London Review & Giveaway
I really like the idea of a subscription box. I love the idea of a box of gorgeous surprises every month. And with Christmas around the corner, it’s also a nice way to share the joy year around, so the person you buy the gift for can get a surprise every month. We were very lucky to be sent a box of Children’s clothes from Adler of London to review.
Adler of London is a children’s clothes subscription service aimed at children 3 years and under. They will send you a monthly package of independent designer children’s clothes selected by a children’s stylist.
You start off by selecting the type of clothes you would like. They have three categories: Bright style (bold, playful patterns), Modern Hip (Scandi, gender-neutral) or Nature Baby (animals, flora and fauna). Then you select the type of subscription you would like – standard which is £37 and 2-3 pieces per month, Deluxe £55 and 3-4 pieces per month. There is also a gift option which starts from £37 per month and you can choose the length of subscription. Then you state your child’s gender, their current age and the age of clothes they are currently wearing.
We were sent the Deluxe box and we choose the brights collection, because I love fun colours on kids. The box consisted of two pairs of leggings, a t-shirt and bib, which is 4 items. The package came wrapped up really nicely in tissue paper and would be a lovely gift for anyone to receive.
The t-shirt was white with the slogan ‘if you’re happy and you know it’ on it. Then there was a pair of aqua leggings with Mexican skulls and flowers on it. A pair of pink and white candy striped style leggings, as well as a pretty watermelon bib – dribble bib style.
Aria usually wears 2-3 clothes, sometimes smaller depending on the shop. She is 2.5 years, but quite petite for her age as she is quite slim. We choose clothes from the 2-3 year old category.
The clothes are obviously really good quality. Thick and soft cottons that I just know by looking at them they will wash well with no shrinking. I loved the fun colours of the collection we were sent and Aria was really taken with the prints.
A few things I would feedback about the subscription. Firstly, we were sent these a couple of weeks ago and they are quite summery for the time of year. Aria is no longer wearing short sleeve tops as she just gets too cold at the moment. So I tend to layer her up and the fab slogan on the t-shirt would end up lost . While I loved the dribble bib – it’s really gorgeous. We actually haven’t worn them for a while, as at 2 and a half Aria now has all of her teeth. But it could still be worn as a fun accessory of course. Also the clothes came up on the big side, it does mean that as they’re quite summery I will just put them aside for next year. Let’s face it, it’s always better to receive bigger clothes than small ones. But if I was ordering again I might be tempted to downsize as the leggings in particular were quite large.
All those points aside, this was a lovely subscription. The clothes are such nice quality and definitely super stylish. If you’re not great at putting outfits together this would be a really nice way to get the look right. But I think with Christmas coming most of all it would make a lovely gift for someone with a small child.

Oh the clothes are adorable. I think if I paid for a subscription box though I’d be a bit cross at being sent summer items at the start of winter, it feels like they’re palming off end of line stock.

Hello Plutonium Sox,
Thank you for your feedback! All the items that were in Laura’s box are currently available from the brands we source from on their websites— the t-shirt and bibdana accessory are “evergreen” items meaning the two brands sell them year-round. We do like the layered look in the autumn/winter and know a lot of parents that like a cute t-shirt for their indoor softplay sessions! We have a lot more winter items we are also shipping now and have also introduced a feature on our website where you can tell us what you don’t want (so we will never send you a t-shirt during the winter if you don’t want it! 🙂 ).
Thanks again for the feedback. We are still in start-up mode and learning as we go. Check out our Instagram feed to see more of the winter looks we have now.
Thank you,
Angela, Co-Founder of Adler of London
