Welcome to

Let Clothes Be Clothes
Allies of Let Toys Be Toys, Let Clothes Be Clothes is a grassroots campaign calling on retailers in the UK to end gender stereotyping in the design and marketing of children's clothing, shoes and accessories.
​
Since children are child-shaped until puberty (with the same measurements on high street sizing charts), we believe separate boys/girls ranges are not only unnecessary, but exploit harmful gender stereotypes that limit children to outdated ideas about the role of men and women in society.
​
Let Clothes Be Clothes is calling on retailers in the UK to adopt a unisex approach to selling childrenswear, providing real choice, prevent bullying and help build a more equal society.
