I also think nobody will mind the way you dress or you dress your child but....even that you might look like everyone around you in Poland,you are in another country and the way they dress is different. On our last visit we wanted to see an opera but my husband didn't bring a suit with him. We were told in visitor center that man has to wear suit to the Opera House and if he has shirt and tie he might be OK in Philharmonic Hall. Recently we went to Broadway show in NYC. I know Broadway show is not an opera but half of the people were wearing t-shirts and almost everyone in the audience was wearing jeans. My mom doesn't own a pair of pants because she thinks her legs are too fat and too short (not true and it doesn't stop anyone in USA from wearing pants).My father doesn't own a pair of jeans because he thinks he is too old for them. That is what he told me when I wanted to send him a pair of jeans. The younger generation is becoming more westernize. My niece(12) has plenty pants which she wears with girl's tops. I don't think she has any unisex t-shirts.She sleeps only in nightgowns not pajamas. Tights are very popular with the younger kids. Bonnets are also very popular with little ones. Sometimes they are hand made. Polish people don't dress kids like a grown up. One of the reason is they cannot afford Levi's jacket and pants for 1 year old.
