Design, Fabric, and Craftsmanship
The robe's construction is a testament to premium quality, featuring a luxurious three-layer fabric composition. The outer layer boasts a beautiful, silk-like finish that drapes elegantly, catching the light with a subtle sheen. Beneath this, a middle layer of polyester provides essential structure and a touch of warmth, giving the gown its impressive, flowing form. Most importantly, the inner layer is made of soft, breathable cotton, ensuring that the delicate skin of your baby is in contact only with the gentlest material, guaranteeing comfort throughout the ceremony. This thoughtful layering makes the Amsterdam Robe suitable for various climates and indoor settings.
Sizing, Fit, and Comfort
Measuring approximately 125-130 cm in length, the robe offers a magnificent, traditional silhouette that cascades beautifully to the floor, symbolizing purity and grace. The simple, long-sleeved design with a neat round neckline allows the quality of the fabric and the purity of the white color to take center stage. The sizing follows Nordic standards, which typically run a bit larger than average. We offer sizes S (3-6 Months) and M (6-9 Months), and for the perfect fit, we advise selecting the smaller size if your baby is between sizes.
Styling Suggestions and Complementary Accessories
To complete this exquisite look, the Amsterdam Robe is designed to be paired with complementary accessories. While the robe is sold separately, you can easily add the matching Amsterdam Bonnet or Amsterdam Hat to create a cohesive ensemble. Furthermore, the robe's simple design is perfect for personalization with a colored ribbon bow—such as Light Navy, Blue Bell, or White—which can be added separately to match your family's tradition or theme. For long-term preservation, we highly recommend our discounted Storage Set, which includes a garment bag and hanger, ensuring this precious keepsake remains in pristine condition for generations to come.
