Little girls need nice thick vests tucked into knickers and slightly too large tights that pull up to the chest to keep the tummy warm.

Can't believe JL would even contemplate selling these. In light of all the recent court cases involving young children, it's even more astonishing tchangry

These certainly look like bra's not a bit like crop tops. They are absolutely ridiculous.

Vests need to be tucked in!!!

Yes, I'm getting page not found too.
Crop tops & bras definitely inappropriate for littlies, but I am a firm believer in vests!
Discovered last year that DGD didn't possess any at all, and had to buy some for her.(which she now wears) [interfering old bag emoticon]

Just noticed they're described as bras in the Product Information part of my link.

How strange - earlier they were very definitely described as 'Bras' and they are certainly bra-like in appearance.

Whatever the wording, entirely inappropriate for a two-year old.

I'm getting 'page not found'. I wonder if they have had protests about this product.

Thanks for doing the link Ana

The crop tops were a different item. These were described as floral bras but I agree, they are definitely not needed

Ana Wed 10-Dec-14 13:13:14

Well, they're described as 'crop tops' but look very bra-like to me - and what 2, 3 or 4 year old needs either anyway...? hmm

Girls clothing and accessories - underwear

Agus Wed 10-Dec-14 12:50:56

Sorry I can't do the link janea. - Girls underwear

I don't like to see little girls in bikinis either.

janeainsworth Wed 10-Dec-14 12:42:57

Where did you see this Agus?
I looked on JL's website and couldn't find anything.
I have to say I really dislike seeing little girls in bikinis, but it seems to be the norm.

I sometimes wonder whether it is a case that any publicity is good publicity.

Agus Wed 10-Dec-14 12:03:22

That surprised me too Charleygirl. I wouldn't have thought a store like JL would resort to selling tack like this.

Bad enough they are for sale but the thought of anyone actually buying these for a 2yr old beggars belief!

Riverwalk Wed 10-Dec-14 12:01:33

I can't imagine there's much of a demand - or do retailers create that demand? hmm

ninathenana Wed 10-Dec-14 11:59:23

shock shock why would you ???

Charleygirl Wed 10-Dec-14 11:56:38

Unbelievable, I am surprised that JL would do this.

Agus Wed 10-Dec-14 11:24:28

I find this totally unacceptable.

Who would even think to come up with this idea angry
