Mosquito hours in Bali fall at dusk and dawn, exactly when the heat doesn't let up. Daily highs here rarely drop below 28C and the air holds close to 80 percent humidity year round (WMO), so trading a sleeveless outfit for full coverage can't mean reaching for anything heavy. A long-sleeve top and long pants in muslin cotton cover the arms and legs while the open weave still lets air move underneath. If you're already figuring out how many layers a baby needs in hot weather, mosquito hours are the one stretch of the day where that extra layer of loose muslin earns its place.
One layer of muslin, nothing extra underneath, is usually enough. Epic's muslin is double-layer and pre-washed before it ships, so it already feels soft against the skin from the first wear, and flat seams keep long sleeves and pant hems from rubbing at wrists and ankles. Parents often ask whether a singlet belongs under muslin clothes in hot weather, and for mosquito hours the answer usually leans toward skipping it: one loose layer covering the skin is enough, and a second layer only adds heat. Keep the fit roomy rather than snug at the cuffs, since a little airflow still gets through.
Checking how muslin baby clothes should fit helps here: aim for roomy through the body, with sleeves and pant legs long enough to stay put as your baby moves. Wash new pieces cold on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry low or hang them. Skip fabric softener and high heat: the weave stays open that way, and the fabric keeps softening with every wash instead of stiffening. Epic's sizes run from newborn to 4 years, so the same long-sleeve, long-pants approach can cover a child through several mosquito seasons before a size change is needed.
