Diaper bag designs usually target the mother (or father) as the actual fashion client and rightfully so. Let’s face it, our babies are usually indifferent to the looks and style of the diaper bag and are much more concerned with their toys and baby items. Modern diaper bags are all aimed at making the parent feel trendy and hip even while taking the baby for a stroll, and designs are accordingly “adult” with chic black leather and other “non childlike” colours and materials. However one must remember it is still a diaper bag you are carrying and the statement it makes has to bear on the baby as well, which raises the question: should a baby girl diaper bag be designed differently than a baby boy diaper bag?

Most designers do not brand their models as baby girl or baby boy bags and if anything try to match the design to the parent’s gender. But with some specific models a baby gender targeting can definitely be identified. take for example hobhobbers’ Preppy Girl diaper bag with its bright pink stripes and squares this bag is definitely aimed at baby girls and is desined not only with the parent in mind but also the baby. As mentioned earlier, the baby itself will probably not notice the difference but the parent definitely will.

another model suitable for baby girls is the baby pink diaper bag by kalencom. . This bag is another example of how design can cater not only to the parent but also to the baby’s gender. While it is quite clear that no dad would use this bag (almost no dad) even moms would tend to choose this bag when the baby in questions is a girl.
