Baby Undershirts

Undershirts were once a popular piece of baby clothing. Every parent had a well-stocked supply of undershirts and it was the first article of clothing put on a baby after the diaper. It may be that fabrics used to make baby sleepers were rough, not as soft as the cotton and cotton-polyester blends used today. Undershirts would protect a baby's skin from rougher fabrics that could irritate or chafe a baby's skin and add an extra layer of warmth.

Ako iz konteksta nije jasno, onda baby kimono. Ako se kopča drikerima na donjoj ivici, onda je to bodi-benkica, tj. kimono bodysuit.

infant bodysuit (onesie)


Explanation:
Jedini naziv koji znam za benkicu je 'onesie' ali wikipedia kaže da je to upravo zaštičeno ime i da je 'infant bodysuit' pravi naziv.
