A christening is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion for your baby and you must let the outfit choice be a memorable one too. Some families even follow the gown continuation as a tradition.

Follow the Tradition

Most Christian denominations have a baptism ceremony. The christening dress for the ceremony also varies according to one's faith. While some religions insist that the christening dress must be a shade of white. Other churches allow cream and even pastels for the gowns. Pale peach, mint green, and baby pink are some of Itty Bitty Toes’ pick for colors for baptism gowns for girls.

Fit is Important

Your baby should be able to move freely in the baptism outfit. A soft fabric is the right choice for a christening gown as your baby's skin is sensitive so the material shouldn't tear skin or cause a baby to be in an itchy, uncomfortable state.

Buy your little one’s christening outfit from Itty Bitty Toes to ensure a proper fit. Our sizing charts are accurate and will let you match your baby's measurements to a size.

Climate Plays a Key Role

While buying a baptism dress for your little one, you must keep the weather in mind as you don’t want the little one to feel suffocated due to heat or fell cold in the attire. Short sleeves and light fabrics like cotton or silk are best suited for hot weather. Long dresses and long sleeves are best for late autumn and winter. A fussy baby isn't a happy baby. Satin is, however, a perfect fabric for a cold day.

Pay Attention to Detailing

For mommies that have beautiful daughters, you can include lovely details in the christening outfit for girls like lace, embroidery, ribbons, bows, and floral appliqués. Satin ribbons and sequined collars are special touches too. For little boys' christening outfits you can add bow ties and pintucks.
