Playful designs, soft materials & comfortable fits. We are children’s favourite.

carlijnQAs a young and environment-friendlybrand, we are all about beginnings. Ourstory started with Doris, CarlijnQ’s two-year-old daughter. Doris became a source of inspiration for CarlijnQ’s designs. These designs stay true to what a child really needs: soft materials and comfortable fits. Characterised by their playful designs and unisex styles, CarlijnQ’s line is produced sustainably in Europe.

After her sold-out success, CarlijnQcontinued the line, transforming CarlijnQinto a children’s lifestyle brand based in the Netherlands and at this time CarlijnQ is sold in over 100 stores worldwide.

ethical & organic philosophyFor a long time, many consumer habits have appeared to have no consequence. It is now quite apparent that there is an imbalance in standards of living throughout the world which is fuelled by the Wests’ continuing short changing and exploitation of labour markets in the so called third world.

We don’t believe anyone who is truly aware of what is going on in the world would want to turn their backs and support a slave trade economy.

Being into clothes we decided to dosomething about it. Certified organic,fair trade clothing that is ethically andsustainably made from seed to garment.Thank you for believing in what we do.

GOTS organic gotton“The World Health Organisation estimatesthat 20,000 people a year die in developing countries from pesticide poisoning, and a further 3 million people suffer chronic health problems”
