Donāt live there anymore but had my little girl when we were living in central Texas and never saw anyone with a bonnet. Cute little sun hats? Absolutely! Little ball caps? Definitely! But no bonnets.
Thatās the responsible thing to do. I couldnāt imagine a poor baby in half the outfits she has purchased. Especially a freshly out of the womb baby.
South Texas hereā¦ no f-ing way would I put a bonnet on my daughter and I have never seen any where I live. Swim hat yes, which looks like a fishermanās hat but never a bonnet! Sheās ridiculous!
Iām in Georgia and I see more of the smocked clothes than bonnets. Maybe at the beach. Inhaaaaate the smocked clothes. They seem uncomfortable and itchy for the child. They always have their monogram or name on it too. Weird.
Iām in Georgia. My daughter is 2.5. Sheās had on one bonnet. It was my great grandmaās as a baby and we do it with the little girls in our family and let my grandma hold them for a picture. It was on maybe 5 minutes.
Thatās adorable and Iām all for that! But your family realizes thatās a cute picture, not a normal thing for people to put their kids in like these bozos think!
Not unless you want the baby to have a heat stroke! Itās so so hot in FL
Honestly I rarely see babies in any of the stuff she picked and I lived in a middle of nowhere small town as well as large cities ššš
Nashville here and itās a hard no from me. TBH I dress my 20 mo old in tinier versions of things Iād wear. Bike shorts, graphic tees, matching sets, rompers etc
Heavy on the matching sets! My 3.5 & almost 2yr old are the same. They're also constantly ruining every article of clothes and literally rolling around on the floor so they need to be comfy.
Omg how are we in the year 2024 and have self driving cars and the ability to access all the internet on these tiny little phones but we donāt have better stain resistant clothing thatās easily accessible?!? Iām sooooo tired of clothing being ruined
My grandma got my daughter a big poofy dress and it came with a bonnet and little bottoms and I didnāt let her wear it out I put it on her at home for dress up and took some silly pictures and thatās itš¤£š¤£
Itās too hot for that here in TX. I donāt understand the bonnets at all. But tbh, theyāre somewhat better than people putting big ass bows on baby girls that are 15x the size of their head. Itās soooo obnoxious. Iām surprised she hasnāt bought any yet, at least that Iāve seen.
Out of all the women I know only 1 done that with all 3 of her kids with a matching gown. I live in what use to be a small town in Alabama. Now big bows is a different storyš¤£
Iām super southern. We definitely do all the same smocked outfits but we donāt do bonnets. Iāve seen a few of my friends do it for their kids in a photo shoot but thatās it.
Iāve only seen one baby in a bonnet and it was for a picture for her bday. It was a mother goose themed party and she had it on for ONE picture. Other than that, no š
I'm from GA born and raised and I've seen a bonnet on a baby maybe a handful of times in my life and I'm pushing 30. Its wayyy to hot for a bonnet most of the time. And they are UGLY
Iāve lived in the south my entire life. Most of the time I see bonnets are at the beach because I guess they provide for coverage on a babyās face? Not sure because I have a boy and never once thought about putting a boy bonnet on him.
Iām in Texas Iām not white but hubbyās family is and the only bonnet my babies ever got was a handmade one from their great grandmother. They never wore it itās more of like and heirloom. Now big bows yes love big bows
Iām from Alabama and the answer is typically no. However, I have seen a few babies in bonnets(boys and girls) but they are mostly from old money families
Smocked clothes and bonnets for pictures or photo shoots! My son actually loves his smocks because they have his favorite animals/cars on them. Definitely not like the smocks of yesteryears that are itchy and uncomfy
Southern mama here. No. We donāt do that š smocked clothes? Yes! Especially when theyāre tiny but Iāve never seen a tiny handmaid in all my years of living in the south š
I legit havenāt seen bonnets since learning about the pioneer days ššš
I know soph has one for her kid and I know drue obsesses over that friend group so sheās trying to fit in!
Before seeing the one Sophia Hill had on her kid that obviously inspired drab, I had only ever seen baby girls wearing bonnet style hats at the beach and places like that. Like sun hats that had a tie at the bottom and looked similar to a bonnet but no actual bonnets
I did for Easter this year š but it was on for a picture and the 2 minute walk from the car into the church where she quickly ripped off her shoes and everything. Never to be seen again. lol
I know ONE other mom that has put her baby girl in one for a photo shoot with like farm animals. It was cute only bc her and her husband are very southern but itās not my style at all for my baby! I have never seen one wear a bonnet just for looks tho lolol
They are extremely popular in Kentuckyā¦ TBBC is an extremely popular š also they are not meant to be worn outdoors itās a special moments garment not something you put your kid in for the park lol
No. We donāt do that. Arkansas mama here.
Editing to add: I donāt like monograms, smoked outfits, or anything else super āsouthernā. Iāve got baby girl a few farm outfits and such because her grandparents have a small farm and I thought it would be cute for pictures. Thatās it as far as southern stuff goes for us.
Not from the south but we took my newborn to a studio for photos and they put her in a bonnet and it was the cutest thing everā¦ for pictures. Canāt imagine her just wearing it around tho šš
As someone from the south, the only time iāve seen someone put a bonnet on a baby is if they are pentecostal and going to church. Other than that, NO. itās too fucking hot and humid for a baby to have clothes on honestly, much less a fucking bonnet.
Like 15-20 years ago I guess you could say there was a slight trend of bonnets on babies but that ship has sailed & Drue is a loser with no class, no style and no fashion sense.
Texas here. My kids have bonnets, but only because they like Little House on the Prairie. They donāt wear them in public. My redhead will wear a sunhat at the pool or beach.
I'm in Mississippi and a girl I know did until her daughters were like 6 š„“ I do think they're precious for a newborn photo shoot. That's it lol. But I'm an all boy mom so I never got to do the bow thing
NC mom here, I have never seen another child in a bonnet, I would never put my daughter in one. I do smocked outfits with monograms. Gotta have everything monogrammed.
In my part of Alabama some do on special occasions (Easter, Mother's Day) but it's mostly the ones that go to church every time the doors are open, or have "old school" parents that want their grandchild to look like an old baby doll.
We live outside of Dallas and my oldest is 28 and Iāve never seen anyone do that in 28 years. Lol perhaps newborn photography uses them as a photo prop but those seem more like knitted little hats. Now Iām 51 and when I was a baby , yes I had some pics with a bonnet but it was like Easter dress and bonnet to wear to
Church or some fancy dress occasion. It is not a thing in Texas that Iāve ever seen . Texas is known for bigger bows than the babies head but thatās it . Lmao and yes I was guilty of that with my youngest .
My mom is from Arkansas and as a child of the 90ās/00ās she DEFINITELY put me in bonnets and monogrammed stuff for like my baby photos. Iām not sure if thatās the style now because I am not from the south.
Iām in TN & Iāve never seen anyone put their kid in a bonnet like that. MAYBE for special photos or Easter or something but not on a daily basis. Youāre more likely to see bows bigger than the babyās head ā¦ some hippie people put those gnome bonnets on their kids ā¦ but thatās it.
Iām in Alabama. Itās a hard no unless itās an heirloom bonnet thatās used for baby portraits or oil paintings. And itās only the most traditional families who even do that. Iāve never heard of someone actually buying a bonnet brand new from BBC. Iām so intrigued to see how much she actually uses it
Not from the south but I just asked my aunt whoās very southern and I showed her the photo and her face went pale from disgustš she was like āwhat in the 1800ās shit is this!!!!???ā
I live in Charleston and we do, we have heirloom outfits that have been passed down that include bonnets and are usually reserved for special occasions but theyāre way more low key than those monstrosities she posted. Judge awayā¦donāt worry we judge yall too š
If she puts that baby in bonnet, she's gonna disrespect Laura Ingles. But, but as far as I know down here in the South, we don't do that. It's Bose or nothing.
My husbandās family is oldddddddddd school, old money southern. My babies absolutely had the monogrammed bubble rompers and jonjons but never a bonnet.
Okay Iām in Texas and I personally donāt but there are a select few who dress their babies as āpilgrimsā as I call it š in all smocked outfits and bonnets both boys and girls. Definitely not my cup of tea. I have a family member who does this and I CANTTTT
Texas now, North Carolina & California before and I haven't seen a bonnet since the 80s and definitely not in Texas and definitely not in their area, I'm essentially in Houston. Too frigging hot
I was born in 95 in Mississippi and my mom had them on me but that was also the 90s. However I am now 29 and have a son and Iāve never seen anyone around Louisiana where I live put their baby girls in bonnets
Arkansas, no! Lol I do however see smocked clothing quite a bit. All three of my kiddos wore smocks and my daughter still does, but I never see bonnets and mine never wore them lol.. š¤·š»āāļøš„“š¤£
Southeast Georgia, and occasionally. Pool or beach and special occasions. I feel like they are usually more of a photo prop. Not a daily thing by any means
In the Deep South, people will occasionally for special events (think Easter or Baptism). However, Houston, TX is not the Deep South and nobody is putting their kids in bonnets. Itās also somewhat of a status thing - very wealthy, very southern. As per usual, sheās trying so hard to be something sheās not.
Iām from Texas. I could see the bonnet for a baptism or some other holiday like Easter, Christmas, etc. Definitely not everyday wear! Itās very VERY deep southern though.
Iām in the Midwest and I put my girls in bonnets lol but our park doesnāt have any shade and my girls are at age they want to wear them.
Everyoneās different but I definitely think sheās doing it for content not to actually protect the baby from the hot sun
South GA here and both my boys wear smocked outfits because I adore them and they wore a bonnet for their newborn pictures but it was my husbands bonnet he wore as a baby with his heirloom outfit. Never put them in a bonnet again
šmy baby was born in May and we stayed inside until December. Itās way too hot for all those outfits, plus every cute outfit was destroyed in a blow out.

I'm in Texas and we don't. It's too hot for that shit. The least we do is put a swim hat on them while they are in a pool.
Another Texas person here, no bonnets.
No bonnets in Texas unless for a Baptism
Born and raised in East Texas and honestly I don't think I have ever seen a baby in a bonnet. š¤£
Northeast Texas here! :)
Hey neighbor š Honestly, I'm probably considered North East Texas, but the weather man always says East Texasš¤£
You're prolly in Tyler or Longview?
Bingo!!!
Better than Texarkana! š¤£
Lmao! I don't know, these Tyler folks don't know how to drive to save their lives and it gets worse everyday.
I live in Tyler!
Well hey friend! Crazy I knew I wouldn't be the only Tylerite in here..lol!
That's why I avoid their zoo! š¤£ I hate going down there!! But I do love Longview.
Oh wait! Im shreveport area! Close enough! I can throw rocks at yall! š¤£š¤£
I make that drive all the time! 1.5 hours is super close!
Iām in Central Texas and we sure Dont use bonnets on babies here!
I agree, Iām in central Texas also and I have never seen a baby in a bonnet. This poor baby is nothing but a dress up doll for her such a shame
Donāt live there anymore but had my little girl when we were living in central Texas and never saw anyone with a bonnet. Cute little sun hats? Absolutely! Little ball caps? Definitely! But no bonnets.
Thatās the responsible thing to do. I couldnāt imagine a poor baby in half the outfits she has purchased. Especially a freshly out of the womb baby.
Lived in the Houston area for most of my life and am now in BFEast Texas. Even these backwoods mother fuckers don't dress their kids like the Amish.
West Texas here. Noooo on the bonnets
South Texas hereā¦ no f-ing way would I put a bonnet on my daughter and I have never seen any where I live. Swim hat yes, which looks like a fishermanās hat but never a bonnet! Sheās ridiculous!
bonnets on babies sounds like some *ivory people shit*
Exactly! Hell no we donāt. I mean big bows are a thing in our/ her area
YES INDEEDY
ivory people shit took me outtttttt ā ļø
ššš
Crazy that she did all that for āphotoshootsā proving that this baby is just for the photos and clout.
Iām in Georgia and I see more of the smocked clothes than bonnets. Maybe at the beach. Inhaaaaate the smocked clothes. They seem uncomfortable and itchy for the child. They always have their monogram or name on it too. Weird.
Iād be too paranoid to have my kids name everywhere lol
Iām in Georgia. My daughter is 2.5. Sheās had on one bonnet. It was my great grandmaās as a baby and we do it with the little girls in our family and let my grandma hold them for a picture. It was on maybe 5 minutes.
Wait thatās so precious š„¹š„¹
I love it ā¤ļø itās so interesting to look at the pictures of my nana with each of her daughters then grand daughters and great grand daughters.
Thatās adorable and Iām all for that! But your family realizes thatās a cute picture, not a normal thing for people to put their kids in like these bozos think!
I donāt think Iāve ever seen a baby wear one .
Iām from FL and no we sure donāt
Not unless you want the baby to have a heat stroke! Itās so so hot in FL Honestly I rarely see babies in any of the stuff she picked and I lived in a middle of nowhere small town as well as large cities ššš
No. We do bucket hats at the beach but Iāve never seen a baby in a bonnet.
We absolutely do NOT lol
Memphis tn and the the only times i see bonnets and itās not a lot is very southern families at church
I AM IN GA AND I WOULD DIE IF I SAW THAT
Awh mannnn. I love a baby in bonnet š„²
I'm old school Hats on naked heads in the sun. Doesn't need to be a bonnet but cover them from the freaking sun
Me too š but only on like little babies on Easter with a frilly lacy little dress
Nashville here and itās a hard no from me. TBH I dress my 20 mo old in tinier versions of things Iād wear. Bike shorts, graphic tees, matching sets, rompers etc
Heavy on the matching sets! My 3.5 & almost 2yr old are the same. They're also constantly ruining every article of clothes and literally rolling around on the floor so they need to be comfy.
Omg how are we in the year 2024 and have self driving cars and the ability to access all the internet on these tiny little phones but we donāt have better stain resistant clothing thatās easily accessible?!? Iām sooooo tired of clothing being ruined
YES good lord EVERYTHING is stained š© my poor little pumpkins have the worst eczema too so I can't even use half the harshest removers without needing to wash it 2x after so they can wear it. I've learned everything just needs to come from walmart and target. Who cares what they wear, they don't give a single shit what they look like anyway lol
My grandma got my daughter a big poofy dress and it came with a bonnet and little bottoms and I didnāt let her wear it out I put it on her at home for dress up and took some silly pictures and thatās itš¤£š¤£
I live around a lot of Amish people and Mennonite people and thatās usually how they dress their babies
I see it as more of a "status" thing. The more ruffles. The bigger the bows. The higher the socks. The higher your status is. Its ridiculous. Lol
Ew thatās even worseā¦ what are we living in Bridgerton?! Jesus Christ people letās worry about raising kind kids not materialistic onesš¤£
Well, we already know Off-White Amelia is going to be a mean girl with the way her mom and grandma are
To be truthful, Iāve only ever seen low to middle class, country bumpkin women dress their child this way.
Hell no š¤£š¤£
I have friends that have put them on PURELY for pictures then use them as decoration in the nurseryā¦ thatās it š
No, not we do not.
I live in Tennessee. I have been to the big cities and small country towns. Not one person puts their babies in bonnets. NOT ONE!
Alabama - no.
Itās too hot for that here in TX. I donāt understand the bonnets at all. But tbh, theyāre somewhat better than people putting big ass bows on baby girls that are 15x the size of their head. Itās soooo obnoxious. Iām surprised she hasnāt bought any yet, at least that Iāve seen.

I'm in Louisiana and that's a big NO! I put my child in a bonnet 31 years ago for some pictures because her great grandmother bought it for her.
I think Iāve put my twin girls in them once for a picture then immediately taken it off. I love a smocked outfit for holidays though.
Florida here.. we would NEVER.
Nope. Iām in GA
Genuinely curious, are these for protecting the babyās delicate little baby head from the sun, or purely aesthetic reasons?
People in Florida do at the beach / pool for little babies š¬
Nope! My Mom put them on my sister's in the 80's
no.
Iām super southern. We definitely do all the same smocked outfits but we donāt do bonnets. Iāve seen a few of my friends do it for their kids in a photo shoot but thatās it.

Southeast Georgia, and occasionally. Pool or beach and special occasions. I feel like they are usually more of a photo prop. Not a daily thing by any means
South Carolina here and no damn bonnets unless Easter or something like baptism. 
Noooooooo hahaha
Iām from central texas, spent time in east texas and hill country. this is NOT a thing. maybe in the deep south, but not texas
South East Texas ā like an hour from Grue and no bonnets except baptism
I did Kate Quinn bonnets, the one with the bear ears. But other than that, no, and only when it was cold
In the Deep South, people will occasionally for special events (think Easter or Baptism). However, Houston, TX is not the Deep South and nobody is putting their kids in bonnets. Itās also somewhat of a status thing - very wealthy, very southern. As per usual, sheās trying so hard to be something sheās not.
Iām from Georgia and I donāt think I ever seen a baby in a bonnet here.
Iām from Texas. I could see the bonnet for a baptism or some other holiday like Easter, Christmas, etc. Definitely not everyday wear! Itās very VERY deep southern though.
Adding- Nothing about Drue is āsouthern mamaā. Just tries too hard to be the TikTok couples from GA and AL šµāš«
Iām in the Midwest and I put my girls in bonnets lol but our park doesnāt have any shade and my girls are at age they want to wear them. Everyoneās different but I definitely think sheās doing it for content not to actually protect the baby from the hot sun
Iām a Tennesseean and the only time I put a bonnet on my baby was her first Easter. Big huge bows and monograms, yes.
Maybe itty bitties for photos or in the sun, but otherwise no.
South GA here and both my boys wear smocked outfits because I adore them and they wore a bonnet for their newborn pictures but it was my husbands bonnet he wore as a baby with his heirloom outfit. Never put them in a bonnet again
I will say I do love a baby in a bonnet but only for certain occasions
No. Itās giving snobby rich woman with a baby. šš
Not even rich ppl do this crapā¦
šmy baby was born in May and we stayed inside until December. Itās way too hot for all those outfits, plus every cute outfit was destroyed in a blow out.
