Marcus Gheetaerts the Younger
Today, many parents dress their children in the same manner as themselves. Jeans, t shirts, sneakers. All for comfort.But in the past, the wealthy fashion for the upper classes was all a statement of social status.
Children were depicted in portaits to reflect their family's social position. Far from all comfort as in the picture attached below.
Also, there was no gender differentiation in children clothing for toddlers or babies.
