History

Gerber Childrenswear's About Us page states that for decades it has been a trusted name in food and clothing for babies, infants and toddlers. It also recounts the story of the Gerber Baby: in 1928 Gerber hosted a contest to find the perfect baby face for a new baby food ad campaign, and artist Dorothy Hope Smith submitted a charcoal sketch that the Gerber team chose to use as it was; the image became so popular that in 1931 Gerber adopted it as the official trademark. The page identifies the real inspiration as Ann Turner Cook, a mystery novelist and retired English teacher, who attended the unveiling of Gerber's updated packaging in 1996. Regarding clothing, the page states that Gerber Childrenswear is the original creator and owner of the Onesies® Brand, and that in 1982 it revolutionized babywear with the invention of the Onesies® Brand bodysuit.
