Oslo Dåbskjole

Design, Fabric, and Craftsmanship

This gown features a breathtaking construction built on layers of fine material. The outer layer is crafted from embroidered bridal tulle, which is subtly detailed with a beautiful pattern that catches the light. Beneath this, the skirt boasts multiple layers of soft tulle to give the gown its lovely volume and ethereal movement. Crucially, the entire garment is lined with a soft, comfortable cotton lining on the inside. This ensures that only the gentlest fabric touches your baby's delicate skin, prioritizing comfort throughout the ceremony. The gown is finished with elegant long sleeves, contributing to its classic, timeless appeal. With a full length of approximately 100-105 cm, the Oslo gown creates a stunning, traditional silhouette that is perfect for memorable photographs.

Sizing, Fit, and Comfort

Oli Prik christening wear is based on Nordic sizing, which means the dresses are typically cut to be a bit generous. The available sizes are S (3-6 Months) and M (6-9 Months). This slightly larger fit is designed for comfort and ease of dressing. If your baby is between sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller size to ensure the best possible fit. The soft cotton lining is key to the gown's comfort, preventing any irritation from the tulle layers and allowing your baby to remain happy and content during the celebration.

Styling Suggestions and Complementary Accessories

The pure, off-white shade of the Oslo Christening Gown makes it a versatile canvas for styling. To complete the classic look, consider adding the matching Oslo Bonnet (sold separately). For an extra layer of volume and a smoother drape, the Off-white Christening Slip is highly recommended. You can also introduce a subtle pop of color with a ribbon bow, such as Powder Pink or Blue Vapor, which can be added separately to the waistline. For practical elegance, the Christening Bib is a beautiful and functional accessory.

Care Instructions and Preservation

A christening gown is a precious family heirloom, and thoughtful care is essential for its preservation. Professional dry cleaning is the safest method. For home care, use a very mild detergent and wash at a low temperature (30°C or below). Never use bleach, stain removers, or fabric softeners. After washing, air dry the gown flat and ensure it is completely dry before storage. To prevent creasing and yellowing, store the gown in a non-airtight, acid-free box or a cotton garment bag, wrapped in acid-free tissue paper. The discounted Storage Set (garment bag and hanger) is highly recommended for beautiful and safe preservation.

Why This Gown is Special

The Oslo Christening Gown stands out as a symbol of Nordic simplicity and enduring grace. Its combination of delicate embroidered tulle and a soft cotton interior perfectly balances ceremonial beauty with baby comfort. Designed to be passed down through generations, it is more than just an outfit; it is a treasured piece of family history, ensuring your baby's special day is marked by elegance, quality, and love.
