CBME Türkiye 2025: Discovering the Future of Baby & Kids’ Design in Istanbul

Our first time at CBME Türkiye,

and the brands that caught our eyes

—

Our first visit to CBME Türkiye 2025 felt like stepping into the heart of the global kids’ design, fashion and maternity scene. Held in Istanbul, the fair brought together creators, makers, and innovators — a vibrant world of children’s fashion, toys, maternity essentials, furniture, and future-forward concepts.

With brands and buyers from more than 120 countries, CBME had an energy we instantly loved: familiar names we were excited to finally meet in person, and a long list of new discoveries we can’t wait to share. A blend of creativity, craftsmanship, and imagination.

Here are the brands we loved most.

Fashion Favourites

A mix of playful design, thoughtful craftsmanship, and brands pushing kidswear forward in fresh, surprising ways. From soft organic essentials to colour-forward collections and modern everyday pieces, these were the labels that stood out to us.

Maternity Favourites

The maternity section brought together some of the sweetest and most practical finds — from newborn clothing to clever baby accessories and smartly designed care products. A mix of softness, innovation, and functionality, these were the pieces that stood out to us for making the early months feel a little easier.
