Gifts For New Parents

What Makes a Good Gift For New Parents?

It's tempting and often easier to buy something thing for the baby. However, we love to gift new parents too - with something that slips easily into their new routine.

Easy Everyday Classics

Getting dressed and ready for the day needs to happen quickly, and that's where simple pieces like these earn their place among the best gifts for new parents. A good-quality T-shirt works with most outfits, easily worn over joggers, under a sweater, or dressed up more formally with jeans or tailoring.

Men's Classic Cotton T-Shirt

Easy to wear and a better version of what he already has in his wardrobe, our Men's Classic Cotton T-Shirt is exactly the sort of everyday piece that makes sense as a practical gift.

If he prefers something a little looser, try the Men's Relaxed Cotton T-Shirt instead.

£40

Women’s Classic Cotton T-Shirt

For an easy and comfortable answer to the question of what to wear when you’ve been awake since 4am, the Women's Classic T-Shirt keeps things simple, while the Organic Cotton Boxy T-Shirt offers a more relaxed, structured shape.

£35 / £55

Jumpers & Knitwear

Good knitwear makes a particularly thoughtful gift for new parents. Soft, comfortable and easy to wear. It feels special when it’s unwrapped yet earns its place in the everyday wardrobe.

Men's Finest Cashmere 1/4 Zip Jumper

This 100% Mongolian cashmere jumper takes an easy, familiar shape and makes it considerably softer.

Wear it open over a T-shirt or zipped higher when more warmth is needed.

£190

Men's Finest Cashmere Mid-Weight Crew Neck Jumper

For someone who prefers a classic crew, this Mid-Weight Cashmere Jumper offers the same sort of everyday ease in a more traditional shape.

£115

Women's Finest Cashmere Full-Zip Hoodie

A hoodie is hard to beat when considering ease and comfort but making it from the finest Grade-A cashmere makes it feel so superior. Particularly useful in the early days of parenthood, when comfort matters and getting dressed needs to be simple. Layer it over a T-shirt, zip it up when the house turns cool, then slip it off again without any fuss.

£235

For another take on the same idea, our Women's Finest Cashmere Knitted Hoodie gives the familiar shape with a refined lighter knit.

Women's Finest Cashmere Mid-Weight Crew Neck Jumper

If the new mother is more likely to reach for traditional knitwear then this jumper would make a great gift. Available in a range of beautiful Spring, Summer, Winter and Autumn-inspired colours that suit anyone.

£225

Alternatively, the TENCEL™ Cashmere Open Collar Polo offers something lighter with a more open neckline while the our Superfine Merino V-Neck Jumper layers perfectly over a T-shirt.

Pyjamas, Robes & Clothes For Staying In

Being a new parent means spending a lot more time at home. That's why upgrading loungewear here makes perfect sense for a gift.

Bathrobes

Thick, soft Turkish cotton. Plush and absorbent, with a lightweight, fast-drying finish that keeps it comfortable for everyday use.

Our Men's Terry Bathrobe and Women’s Terry Bathrobe are made for the hours between bed, the shower, and finally getting dressed.

Pyjamas

Nothing says home comfort like good, brand-new Pyjamas. New parents need gifts like these, because there will be plenty more nights in- the ultimate comfort gift.

For Him

Rise & Fall's Men's Organic Cotton Pyjama Bottoms make a great gift for him, and pair with an Organic Cotton Pyjama Top for the best gift set.

Alternatively, choose comfy loungewear they can wear on the go while staying comfortable. Our Men's Finest Cashmere Joggers pair well with a Men's Relaxed Cotton T-Shirt and a Men's Finest Cashmere Full Zip Hoodie.

For Her

For her, the new luxury Silk Cotton Pyjama Set brings cotton and silk together for a lightweight, breathable and crisp feel. Silk brings softness and drape, while cotton makes the fabric more practical.

And if pyjamas feel a little too close to admitting defeat for the day, the Women's Finest Cashmere Wide-Leg Trousers offer loungewear comfort in a shape that looks more pulled together. Pair with our Classic Cotton Crew Neck T-shirt and Women's Finest Cashmere Full Zip Hoodie for a stylish and comfortable set.

Smaller Gifts

The best new-parent gifts don't always have to be the biggest. The things people would rarely justify buying for themselves are often the nicest to receive. 

Our oversized cashmere wrap is one of those rare pieces that feels at home where ever your day takes you.

£195

Wear it as a scarf, drape it around the shoulders, keep it over the back of the sofa or take it along when leaving the house. It's soft, generously sized and doesn't require you to know anyone's clothing size.

Smaller still, Cotton Ribbed Socks (Pack of 2) and Finest Cashmere Socks make useful little luxuries that anyone can appreciate. 

£25 - £55

Finally, we all know new parents can be time-poor so when cooking becomes a little more improvised, good quality olive oil earns its place.

Drizzling over their go-to dinner: whether that's soup, pasta, vegetables or whatever the can find in the cupboards, it's a small everyday luxury that can elevate any dish.

£25 for 500ml / £65 for 2L
