The Beaufort Bonnet Company

Luxury children's apparel and heirloom pieces

Overview

The Beaufort Bonnet Company creates heirloom-quality children’s clothing and accessories with a classic Southern look. It started with a handmade bonnet and expanded into a full line for babies and kids, including dresses, rompers, swimwear, and pajamas, made with high-quality materials like Pima cotton. The brand sells directly to consumers through its online store and through a wholesale network of retail stores and specialty boutiques. What sets it apart is its heritage-inspired, traditional silhouettes and craftsmanship rooted in heirloom values, along with an origin story tied to a sentimental bonnet and a long-standing craftsmanship tradition. Now part of Oxford Industries, the company remains focused on timeless, durable pieces designed to be passed down through generations. Its goal is to celebrate childhood with durable, heirloom-quality clothing that parents and grandparents can treasure and share across families.
