First of all you need to think about when it comes to infants Halloween costumes is how heavy the fabric is. Generally, very small babies are best in light materials rather than heavy ones. If it is a little cool outside, you can add a blanket or jacket that fits over the costume for warmth.

Lightweight fabrics that are suitable for babies include cotton and polyester. Along with choosing a lightweight fabric, you should also pick a fabric that's breathable.
