Light Blue Christening Slip

Crafted from 100% pure cotton, this slip guarantees a soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic experience for your little one. The natural cotton material is paramount for a garment worn directly against a baby’s delicate skin, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the ceremony, even in warmer environments. The construction is simple yet robust, featuring a smooth, sleeveless design and a discreet buttoned closure at the back for easy dressing. The length, approximately 85-90 cm, is carefully considered to provide full coverage and support the shape of a traditional long christening gown.

The primary function of the slip is to enhance the christening outfit. By providing a smooth, opaque layer, it prevents the outer gown from clinging and allows it to flow beautifully, giving the entire ensemble a more luxurious and finished appearance. Crucially, it acts as a soft barrier, protecting the baby’s sensitive skin from any potential irritation caused by the seams, lace, or embroidery of the outer gown. This focus on both aesthetic enhancement and practical protection is a hallmark of Oli Prik’s commitment to quality.

Comfort and fit are central to the design. The pure cotton fabric is gentle and non-restrictive, allowing your baby to move freely and remain content during the ceremony. Oli Prik utilizes Nordic sizing, which is known for being slightly generous. We recommend consulting our size guide, but as a general rule, if your baby is between sizes, choosing the smaller option will ensure the best fit beneath the gown. The slip is available in sizes S (3-6 Months) and M (6-9 Months).

What truly makes this product special is its blend of practicality and heritage. It is a premium accessory that reflects a tradition of high-quality, enduring Danish design. It is not merely a functional item but a piece that contributes to the overall beauty and comfort of a once-in-a-lifetime garment. To maintain its pristine condition, the slip should be gently hand-washed or machine-washed on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent and air-dried flat. Proper care ensures this beautiful cotton slip can be preserved alongside the gown as a cherished keepsake.
