The piece notes regional differences from Central America where babies wear little clothing to Iceland with elaborate ward robes, linking wardrobe to heating methods and crib space.
A historical discussion argues for minimal clothing for infants to enable sun exposure. It traces shifts from full outfits to lighter attire, noting ultraviolet benefits and safe sunbaths, with a mother's witness to year round dressing and simplified garments for babies.
