Love to Dream™ Unveils SS26 Print Collection

A Fresh Take on Comfort, Calm and Playful Style for Little Dreamers

Love to Dream™ is delighted to unveil its Spring/Summer 2026 collection, introducing a beautiful selection of sleepwear and layering essentials designed for babies and children. Inspired by the joy of warmer days and magical bedtimes, the collection combines delicate florals, fresh fruit-inspired prints and calming pastel tones with the return of the much-loved Twinkle designs. The result is a range that blends comfort, practicality and timeless style for every stage of childhood.

Created with warmer weather in mind, the SS26 collection is available in lightweight 1.0 and 1.5 TOG options across a selection of premium fabrics, including soft cotton, breathable bamboo viscose and the luxurious DreamStretch™ Bamboo fabric. Exceptionally soft, naturally temperature regulating and designed to move with active sleepers, DreamStretch™ Bamboo provides outstanding comfort throughout the night while allowing children complete freedom to wriggle, stretch and sleep soundly.

Families can also coordinate siblings with matching prints available across the award-winning Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 Swaddle Up™ ranges, Sleep Bags, Sleep Suits, Layers collection and DreamStretch™ Bamboo pyjamas, covering newborns through to children aged eight years.

Nature-Inspired Prints

The SS26 collection embraces nature with beautifully illustrated botanical designs and soft seasonal colour palettes.

Celebrating the Australian heritage of Love to Dream™, Jacaranda Meadow captures the delicate purple blossoms of Australia’s iconic jacaranda tree, symbolising the arrival of spring and new beginnings. The elegant print offers a calming aesthetic that perfectly reflects the peaceful moments of bedtime.

Joining the collection is Lilac Meadow, featuring delicate white floral blooms scattered across a soft lilac background. Available in both the Swaddle Up™ and Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag, it brings a gentle botanical touch to bedtime routines.

For those who prefer a neutral palette, Oatmeal offers a beautifully understated option across the Swaddle Up™ and Transition Bag ranges, making it an ideal choice for contemporary nurseries and gender-neutral gifting.

Playful Bamboo Styles

The collection also introduces fresh seasonal prints across Love to Dream™’s breathable bamboo ranges.

Mist features a charming white sailboat design on a calming ocean-blue background. Available in the Swaddle Up™ and Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag, the bamboo viscose fabric is naturally breathable, moisture wicking and temperature regulating, making it ideal for warmer nights at home or on holiday.

One of the standout designs this season is Cream Lemons, bringing a fresh citrus-inspired look across an extended product range. Alongside bamboo viscose Swaddle Up™ and Transition Bags, the print is available throughout the DreamStretch™ Bamboo collection, including bodysuits, rompers and matching pyjamas for children aged two to eight years. The cheerful lemon print perfectly captures the feeling of summer while the silky-soft bamboo fabric delivers exceptional comfort day and night.

Another playful addition is Blush Cherries, a sweet fruit-inspired print available in the bamboo viscose Swaddle Up™, DreamStretch™ Bamboo romper and coordinating children’s pyjamas.

Signature Twinkle Returns

The ever-popular Twinkle collection returns in beautiful Powder Pink and Powder Blue for SS26.

Available across the Swaddle Up™, Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag, Stage 3 Long Sleeve Sleep Bag and Long Sleeve Sleep Suit collections, the refreshed designs support children through every stage of sleep, from newborn swaddling through to independent toddlers.

Adding a premium finish, the new Buff Twinkle Embroidery Sleep Bag features delicate embroidered gold stars on crisp white fabric, creating an elegant new option for babies aged 6 months to 3 years.

A Mum’s Review

Having tested both the Cream Lemons DreamStretch™ Bamboo Pyjamas (size 4 years) and the Powder Pink Twinkle Long Sleeve Sleep Suit (size 4 years, 1.0 TOG), one mum was genuinely impressed by both the quality and comfort.

“The first thing I noticed was just how incredibly soft the DreamStretch™ Bamboo pyjamas are. The fabric feels luxurious and silky against the skin, and my four-year-old commented straight away about how comfortable they were. The Cream Lemons print is fresh, bright and perfect for summer, while the stretchy bamboo fabric allows plenty of movement without ever feeling restrictive. Even after washing, the pyjamas stayed beautifully soft and kept their shape.”

“The Powder Pink Twinkle Long Sleeve Sleep Suit has quickly become another bedtime favourite. The lightweight 1.0 TOG makes it ideal for warmer nights, and I love knowing my daughter stays comfortably covered all night without needing blankets that inevitably get kicked off. The two-way zip makes getting dressed easy, while the soft fabric and thoughtful design mean she sleeps comfortably from bedtime until morning. The delicate Twinkle print is absolutely beautiful and looks even lovelier in person.”

“As a parent, it’s reassuring to find sleepwear that combines practicality with such lovely designs. Both pieces are exceptionally well made, wash brilliantly and feel designed with real family life in mind. It’s easy to see why Love to Dream™ has become such a trusted name for sleep.”

Supporting Better Sleep

Every piece in the SS26 collection reflects Love to Dream™’s commitment to creating safer, more comfortable sleep solutions. The brand’s signature ARMS UP™ design encourages babies to sleep in a natural position while allowing them to self-soothe, supporting longer and more restful sleep. Combined with breathable premium fabrics and thoughtful features that make bedtime easier for parents, the SS26 collection continues Love to Dream™’s mission of helping families enjoy better sleep, night after night.

The Love to Dream™ SS26 collection is available now from www.lovetodream.co.uk and selected retailers.
