Girls' Denim Jackets
A girls' denim jacket is the light layer that does the most work between seasons. It goes over a T-shirt in April, a summer dress on a cool evening and a jumper in October. The sizes run from newborn to age 15, so a younger sister and an older one can each wear the same classic piece in her own size. Denim is a sturdy cotton twill that stands up to climbing frames and school runs.
Most denim has little stretch, so size up if she will wear it over a hoodie or thick jumper. A 7-year-old usually takes 128 cm, and 134 cm leaves room for layers. A girls' cropped denim jacket ends at the waist and suits high-waisted skirts and dresses. A jean jacket is the same garment under another name. New denim can shed dye in the first few washes, so wash it inside out with similar colours and follow the care label.
Your questions answered
MINOTI's Girls' Denim Jackets collection has denim jackets for girls aged 0 to 15, worn as a light layer over T-shirts, dresses and jumpers, in centimetre sizes based on height, so a 4-year-old usually takes 110 cm.
How do I style a girls' denim jacket in different colours?
Keep the rest simple: a T-shirt and leggings, a cotton dress, or a jumper and skirt when it drops below 15°C. A girls' white denim jacket lifts navy and grey, a girls' pink denim jacket softens a plain outfit, and a girls' black denim jacket sits well over florals.
What size denim jacket should I buy for a 4-year-old girl?
A 4-year-old usually takes 110 cm. Most denim has little stretch, so choose 116 cm if she will wear it over a thick jumper or you want it to last into next year.
