# Cute Toothy Kimonos This Shark Baby Bathrobe Turns the Sea Predator Soft By Amelia Roblin | Published 2011-09-04 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shark-baby-bathrobe References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2011/09/02/shark-baby-bathrobe-pink/) & [neatoshop](http://www.neatoshop.com/product/Shark-Baby-Bathrobe-Pink) I can't get over just how adorable this Shark Baby Bathrobe is. The act of making an allegedly vicious animal into something undeniably endearing is both amusing and irresistible. The confused faces of the infant models within their toothy hoods only adds to the utterly lovable look. The [terry cloth dressing gown](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silk-snows-terry-robe) comes in pink and blue, marketed for girls and boys respectively. The garment guarantees that your [little biting bathers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-bath-support) will be kept cozy and warm after a swim in the soaker thanks to the thick fleecy material, the fang-bearing head covering and a charming [shark-shaped coattail](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/legacy-camo-shark). Plushy dorsal fins and black beady eyes accessorize the tots' togs. A long soft sash keeps the Shark Baby Bathrobe closed snugly and parents can appreciate the incredible cuteness of their fledging fish out of water. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Babies](https://www.trendhunter.com/babies) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Animal-themed Children's Dressing Gowns:** The trend of transforming traditionally fierce animals like sharks into adorable dressing gowns for babies has potential for growth in the children's clothing industry. - **Thick Fleecy Materials for Children's Clothing:** The use of thick fleecy materials in children's dressing gowns, like the Shark Baby Bathrobe, could be applied to other children's clothing items to provide added warmth and comfort. - **Gendered Children's Clothing:** The marketing of the Shark Baby Bathrobe in pink and blue for girls and boys respectively highlights the continued trend of gendered clothing choices for children. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Children's Clothing:** The trend of animal-themed dressing gowns and the use of thick fleecy materials offers an opportunity for innovation and new products in the children's clothing industry. - **Parenting and Baby Products:** The Shark Baby Bathrobe appeals to parents looking for cute and cozy post-bath clothing options for their babies, highlighting the potential for growth in the parenting and baby products industry. - **E-commerce:** The Shark Baby Bathrobe and other niche children's clothing products can find success through targeted online sales and social media marketing, showcasing the potential for growth in the e-commerce industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Organic Bamboo Bathrobes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ettitudes-waffle-robe.md) - [Quick-Dry Odor-Free Robes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/k25-smart-bathrobe-20.md) - [Shark-Themed Candy Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candyrific-pinkfong-baby-shark.md) - [Eco-Friendly Bath Essentials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kids-bath-products.md) - [Sensory Plush Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mooshmoosh.md) - [Two-In-One Plush Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cute-animal-pillow-with-blanket.md) - [Cartoon Character Themed Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-shark-cake-collection.md) - [Sea Creature Study Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pirate-shark-study-desk.md) - [Egyptian Cotton Bathrobes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silk-snows-terry-robe.md)
