We just added a new outfit to our boy’s line–the Alexander! I love the simplicity of this classic design! It is made from a lightweight cotton broadcloth material, so this romper is super soft and comfy. The vest is a separate piece that has a waffle-weave texture to the fabric, giving the outfit an over-all masculine look. The Alexander also comes with a matching cotton hat and cute satin bowtie. Long sleeves and legs make this a great choice for springtime-since it’s still a little chilly.

Temperatures are dropping like frozen balloons lately, so if you’ve got a christening or blessing coming up in the next several weeks, you might want to look for something warm as well as adorable. Fortunately, we’ve got the perfect style: our new Lucas Christening Outfit is a wonderful option for cold-weather events!
Ultra-soft combed cotton rib knit makes up the main element of this comfortable style, which is dressed up by the addition of a glossy braid trim. The 3-piece Lucas outfit comes with a short-sleeved, long-legged romper, matching long-sleeved jacket and CUTE visor hat. The matching blanket and shoes are sold separately. All items are proudly made in our local workshop, right here in the USA.
Finding the perfect garment for your son’s baptism day is a big part of planning for his once-in-a-lifetime event. This religious celebration is traditionally attended by extended family and friends who will undoubtedly take numerous photographs of the new infant, so you want to be sure to shop for something that looks great and also reflects your style. To accommodate you, we have created a wide assortment of handsome baptism outfits for boys at One Small Child, in a variety of fabrics and styles. Some parents want a traditional long white ceremonial gown made for boys for religious ceremonies such as baptisms. Other parents and grandparents prefer a christening romper that is more masculine, with tailored details.
We are pleased to create ceremonial gowns for baby boys: finely crafted and classic garments made from high-quality silk and cotton fabrics that reflect the importance of their purpose. Fabric choices can be influenced by several factors, including tradition, season, and personal preference. For a hot summer-time religious ceremony, you might want a gown in lightweight cotton with a uniquely woven embellishment on the sleeves and near the hemline or a simple one-piece white cotton romper. Shimmering silk, lustrous satin, and cozy sweater knits make perfect baptism outfits for boys being baptized when the weather is cool. If colder temperatures are in the forecast, parents can purchase matching sweaters, jackets or coats featuring the same textiles and trims offered on the outfits themselves.
While the styling of our baptism outfits for boys tends to be classic and simple, most items feature details that add significantly to the ‘cute factor’, including menswear-inspired pointed collars and pleats, textured fabrics, fabric-covered buttons, subtle entre-deux inserts, and glossy braid trims. Some styles offer a contrasting blue embellishment, which provides subtle pops of color at the waistline, across the brim of the hat, and the toes of the matching shoes for a well-coordinated, put-together look.
Your little boy will look absolutely handsome in his baptism outfit look, smartly finished by a coordinating hat. Styles included in our collection include jaunty visor caps, cute berets, and traditional visor bonnets. You can opt to add a personal embroidered detail to the baptism hat. Styles offered include Baby’s name, monogram, cross, or shamrock. Also available is a large selection of matching socks, shoes, bibs, blankets and more! You’re sure to find everything you need to present a fully equipped baby to friends and family on an unforgettable day.

One of the most common questions we get is, “What size should I order for my baby?” It’s normal to feel uncertain when trying to gauge exactly what size to select when you don’t have the actual gown or outfit in your hands. Fortunately, we’ve been doing this a long time, and we have a lot of experience in helping you make your decision.
Our christening gowns and outfits are sized in a traditional infant size range: Newborn, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, 12 month, 18 month, and 24 month. These size names can be misleading: it makes sense to think, “If my baby is 6 months old, he’s going to wear a size 6 month outfit.” However, every baby is unique. You may have a thin, petite 9 month-old who perfectly fits a size 6 month gown, or a chubby little cherub who’s rocking size 12 month at the ripe old age of 6 months.
For this reason we always encourage our clients to measure their babies and refer to the size charts listed on the ordering page for each of our christening styles.
Here’s what you’ll need to gather to measure your baby:
-the baby (you want to be sure he/she is unclothed or close to it…measuring over a snug-fitting undershirt is fine; over a heavy top is not)
-a blanket or other comfortable surface on which to work (be sure baby won’t roll off an elevated surface)
-a soft measuring tape (if you don’t have a flexible tape, you can use a piece of string, and compare it to a ruler or construction measuring tape)
For both christening gowns and outfits, you’ll need a chest measurement. Wrap the tape just below baby’s underarms, and pull it snug (not too tight). Make sure the measurement is as accurate as possible.
For christening rompers, you’ll need both the chest measurement and the torso measurement demonstrated below. The torso measurement is the most important metric to guarantee a correct fit. Place the end of the tape at the point where his neck meets his shoulder, and measure down to the bottom of his diaper.
It’s a simple process, but can get complicated pretty quick with a squirmy child…it’s okay if you need to take the measurement a couple times to verify accuracy.
Once you’ve got your numbers, check them against the size chart for the particular style(s) you’re interested in. All size charts are found on a tab in the lower left-hand corner of the product ordering page. Many of our size charts list a weight range as well as the measurements–this is for reference only, if in doubt, go with the measurements.
Once you’ve tackled this job, you’re well on your way to acquiring the perfect outfit for Baby’s special day!
