Design, Fabric, and Craftsmanship
The design is characterized by its long sleeves and delicate lace detailing along the sleeves and the hem of the skirt, adding a layer of classic, gentle charm. While the exterior is pure silk, the interior is thoughtfully lined with 100% cotton. This critical feature ensures the gown is soft, breathable, and comfortable against your baby's delicate skin throughout the ceremony and celebration. The short length, approximately 70-80 cm, offers a contemporary silhouette and makes it easier to handle the baby without the worry of a long train.
Sizing, Fit, and Comfort
Oli Prik's christening wear follows Nordic sizing, which is typically generous. The brand advises that if you are deciding between two sizes, it is best to choose the smaller one to ensure a better fit. The dress is designed to be comfortable and allow for natural movement, making the day pleasant for your little one.
Styling Suggestions and Complementary Accessories
To complete the look, the Antibes dress is perfectly complemented by a range of accessories. A matching christening bonnet and various colored ribbon bows (such as Off White, Rose Mauve, and Smoke Blue) are available to be added separately, allowing you to personalize the gown.
Preservation Instructions
For long-term preservation, it is highly recommended to purchase the accompanying storage set, which includes a garment bag and hanger, ensuring the gown remains beautiful and safe for years to come.
