Letting kids dress themselves can be risky. While children's self-expression is awesome, their parents might face criticism for some, um, creative outfits. In Hollywood, the scrutiny is even more intense. But a number of celebrities believe in giving their kids this freedom anyway.
Take Adele, for instance. Earlier this year, the songstress took her three-year-old son Angelo to Disneyland and he was dressed up as Princess Anna from Disney’s “Frozen.”
This isn’t surprising considering the 28-year-old previously told Time magazine, “Whatever my kid wants to do or be I will always support him no matter what.”
Many other celebrity parents feel the same way and couldn't care less about what their kids wear, at home or in public. Flip through the slideshow below to find out who.

She thinks she's one of the brothers.”Since then, Jolie and Pitt have let Shiloh embrace her boyish style.

Last year, Gwen Stefani revealed why she and ex Gavin Rossdale let their eldest sons – Kingston, 10, and Zuma, 7 – dress however they want. “It's one of those things where, it's not like I don't think about it, but they're used to being around me, and I'm always doing my hair, makeup, nails,” Stefani told ET. “It's just normal for them. What I like to say is that being unique and original is what makes me happy, and I think that rubs off on them.” (credit:David Livingston via Getty Images)

Parents: Busy Philipps & Marc Silverstein In 2015, actress Busy Philipps revealed that she lets her kids – Birdie, 7, and Cricket, 2 – pick their own clothes. “I let [Birdie] dress herself. She should be making her own choices. She should get up in the morning and get herself dressed,” Philipps told People. “The time for magical dressing is when I think they’re in preschool, like 4 or 5 years old. They get really specific ideas,” she continued. “[Cricket] is obsessed with these Native shoes. They’re the ones that are rubbery — she has them in red with blue soles. She calls them her ‘red shoes’ and she will not wear any other pair of shoes.” (credit:Busy Philipps/Instagram)
