While matching outfits between parent and child are almost exclusively for mums and daughters, Matalan has unveiled twinning pieces for doting dads and their little ones.
Put a spring in your step a smart long sleeve shirt with a blue floral design for £16, made from 100% cotton. It’s in a classic fit that wouldn’t look out place in the office or pared with jeans for the weekends and is available in sizes small to XXL.

In the kids section, there are five designs with the same print on offer, so you can match with the rest of the family. There’s a dress and knickers set for newborns up until 18 months old for £12.50, a dress for nine month olds to six years old for £10 to £12 and then a dress for four to thirteen year olds for £12 to £14.
There’s no risk of losing your kids in a crowd with this set. They’re lightweight and machine washable too, so no matter what trees they climb or food they spill, you can just pop them in the washing machine til they’re good as new.

For boys there’s a matching shirt and bow tie, for 9 months to six years old for £7 to £8 or a plain blue version with a floral bow tie and pocket handkerchief for £8 to £9 that fits four to 13 year olds. In our humble opinion, there’s nothing cuter than miniature bow ties.

They’re perfect for summer BBQs, visiting the grandparents and weddings, especially if you’re on a budget. There’s not option for mums however, which may leave you feeling a little left out in the family photo.
