There was also a three-piece set featuring a top, frilly knickers and a cardigan, for £20.
And the most adorable item was a blue replica Paddington Bear coat which cost £16 and again came in sizes from newborn to one year.
The cheapest item in the range are the Paddington socks, and you get four pairs – two striped and two with Paddington – for £6.
The collection is available in stores and online and could be perfect for your little ones or to gift to family and friends.
Even those without kids were keen to stock up, however.
One viewer wrote: “i don’t even have kids yet and i cannot stop thinking about getting these in advance.”
Another added: “I don’t even had kids and I want them.”
A third commented: “we should have babies at the same time and dress them in paddington outfits.”
We recently shared how there is a new Paddington Bear attraction in the UK – and it’s perfect for families.
The Paddington Bear experience celebrates 65 years of the famous children’s book character created by Michael Bond.

Visitors take part in an immersive experience in London’s County Hall, which is set on the Southbank.
During the multi-sensory experience, guests help Paddington and the Brown family to prepare for a special day out.
Families are transported to iconic locations from the world of Paddington Bear, including Windsor Gardens, and can expect live performances as well as themed food and drink.
There will also be a third Paddington Bear movie this year, but Sally Hawkins won’t rejoining the cast as Mrs Brown.
The actress said she felt it was time to hand over the reigns to someone else.
However, it seems she didn’t take the decision lightly as Sally told Variety: “I already greatly miss my on and off-screen family – the experience of making the first two films has truly been some of the best and most creative times I have had in the world of film.
“They both gave me so much joy.
“I will forever hold them so very close to my heart indeed.”
Mrs Brown will be played by Emily Mortimer in the third film.
