Toddler Christening

July 20th, 2009

While many christenings take place in infancy, there are times and circumstances in which these ceremonies are put off until a child is a bit older. In these cases, there is a need for christening-styled dresses in toddler sizes. Most of our selection of toddler christening wear is designed with fabrics and elements similar to our popular gown styles, but made in a tea-length more appropriate for an active child.

Lindsey’s Baby Boy in Our Logan Blessing Outfit

July 18th, 2009

This little guy makes me smile–I just love the expression on his face!  His mama, Lindsey, wrote:

“I was very pleased with your company! You have a darling selection and very quick shipping, as well as a great return policy. I have attached a picture of our little guy in his blessing outfit. He was so cute! Thanks!”

New Product: Anthony Silk Christening Suit

July 9th, 2009

Our new Anthony silk christening suit is to. die. for. gorgeous! Made of sumptuous 100% silk dupioni, the short-sleeved romper is dressed up with hand-sewn pintucks and silk-covered buttons. The long-sleeved jacket attaches to the romper at the waist and features a cut-away front hem that dips down to a long formal back (you can view detail photos here). A jaunty visor-beret hat finishes off the look, reminding me of a child in a Victorian painting, all soft and dreamy and fancy, but still clean-lined and boyish.

July 3rd, 2009
