Design, Fabric, and Craftsmanship
The Drammen Christening Dress is a masterpiece of delicate detailing. The outer layer is crafted from fine embroidered bridal tulle, which cascades into a skirt featuring multiple layers of soft tulle for a light, ethereal volume. The long sleeves are finished with the same intricate embroidery, adding a touch of classic grace. Beneath the luxurious exterior, the dress is fully lined with a gentle cotton lining to ensure maximum comfort against your baby's delicate skin. The use of mixed, high-quality fabrics guarantees a beautiful drape and a garment worthy of an heirloom. The dress length is approximately 70-80 cm, a perfect, shorter style for modern ceremonies.
Sizing, Fit, and Comfort
Designed with the comfort of your baby in mind, the Drammen dress features Nordic sizing, which tends to be slightly larger than standard. We offer sizes from XS (1-3 Months) to M (6-9 Months). For the best fit, we recommend consulting our size guide and choosing the smaller size if you are in doubt. The soft cotton lining and light materials ensure the dress is breathable and non-irritating, allowing your baby to move freely and comfortably throughout the ceremony.
Styling Suggestions and Complementary Accessories
Complete the perfect christening ensemble with our range of complementary accessories. A matching christening bonnet is available to purchase separately, harmonizing beautifully with the dress's embroidered tulle. Personalize the look with a delicate ribbon bow—choose from classic Off-white, soft Rose Mauve, or elegant Smoke Blue (ribbons sold separately). For a traditional finish, consider adding a christening bib and a petticoat for extra fullness.
Care Instructions and Preservation
To preserve the beauty of your Drammen Christening Dress for generations, proper care and storage are essential. We recommend professional cleaning or gentle hand-washing. For safe, long-term preservation, we highly recommend adding our Storage Set, which includes a baby hanger and a breathable garment bag. Storing the dress in a cool, dark, and dry place will protect the delicate fabrics and embroidery, ensuring it remains a beautiful family heirloom.
