Watch out, Gerber babies. and are entering the baby fashion game, and they're doing it in serious style. The power couple just launched an exclusive baby apparel line under their PROUDLY brand, and it officially dropped May 15 at . Known for creating baby care products for melanin-rich skin, PROUDLY is now expanding into clothing, and the result is a joyful, inclusive, and irresistibly cute collection designed to make stylish, high-quality babywear accessible to every family, including Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade's. Back in 2022, the Wades spoke on their brand's expansion to Target, explaining, 'Inspired by our daughter Kaavia, we set out to create baby care products formulated specially for babies with melanated skin." They added, "Through our partnership with Target, [the] products will now be widely available to more communities, parents and caretakers. We are so grateful to be partnering with Target, which is aligned with our mission to embrace and celebrate babies of color.' Now, they are teaming up with another well-known company: JCPenney. 'We wanted PROUDLY's first step into apparel to be with a partner who truly understands our vision, and JCPenney does,' Gabrielle Union said in a statement via a press release shared with The Blast. 'It's about representation, quality and celebrating all families." She added, "We aim to provide parents options they can trust and feel good about, ensuring every child, regardless of their background, has access to something special.'

Featuring two-piece sets, footed sleepers, breezy onesies, soft hooded towels, baby turbans, sleeveless rompers, and adorable beanie sets, the collection is made with hypoallergenic, breathable fabrics designed to be gentle on every baby's skin. There's even room for tiny real pockets, because fashion starts young. And in case you're wondering, yes, the prints are that cute. The line includes a vibrant color palette and whimsical watercolor animal prints that not only pop in Instagram photos but are also designed to complement a wide range of skin tones. It's stylish, functional, and inclusive, just like everything Gabrielle and Dwyane do. Launching exclusively at JCPenney, the line is available online and in select stores starting today. And with prices that 'feel almost too good to be true,' parents no longer have to choose between affordability and style. 'At JCPenney, we believe that every parent deserves access to stylish and high-quality baby apparel that reflects their love and commitment to their little ones,' Chris Phillips, Senior Vice President and General Merchandise Manager at JCPenney, said. 'The PROUDLY collection offers not only beautiful designs but also prioritizes comfort and affordability, ensuring that families can celebrate every cherished moment together without compromise.'
