2. Momokos - Sarbani Gupta Banik
Momokos, founded by Sarbani Gupta Banik, offers a variety of kidswear for babies that are 0 to 12 months old.

As a solution to this, she offers ensembles made with organic cotton fabric certified by GOTS. These are eco-friendly as well soft enough to not irritate the little ones. Casual wear such as t-shirts, co-ords, and rompers are what you will find at this woman-led brand. These attires sport vibrant prints, like bunnies, and popsicles, and also have a more casual striped design, if you would like something more soothing.
