It is very important to us that the skirts are handmade and by a single person, from cutting to final ironing. This is because it ensures the quality of the artisanal production of baptismal dresses. In a garment as small as a christening skirt It is especially important to cut the patterns accurately and of course to sew with great care to ensure that the details, which are very small, are perfect. Please note that there are many newborn gowns and baby skirts for first wear.

Our handmade christening skirts, made in Spain, have lace, yes. However, they are still very simple christening skirts. In fact, many times you cannot tell the difference between the two. christening clothes for girls of christening gowns for boys. The actual difference between a christening gown for a boy and a christening gown for a girl is subjective most of the time. In general, it is just a baby christening gown. However, it is always interesting that they are handmade baby gowns.

What fabric is a christening gown made of?

The christening skirts They can be made from a multitude of fabrics, although in general more natural fabrics are used that are kinder to the skin of a newborn baby. Babies in general are sensitive and require handmade christening gowns made from soft fabrics that do not irritate their skin. At Quémono we are specialized in linen christening skirts, options modern for the current family. However, we also have some tulle skirtsand christening skirt Gabriela, which is made of a beautiful plumeti tulle. This plumeti christening skirt also has a matching bonnet and also a diaper cover made of plumeti. It is very popular as a summer christening skirt. You can also find cotton christening skirts like the Pino skirt which is also a christening skirt with color. If your baby's baptism is during the spring-summer season, it is ideal in pale pink. On the other hand, there is the Daniela skirt, which is a beautiful brocade christening skirt in ivory. This rich fabric is what we usually call a false plain: In reality the fabric has texture, but it is true that from a distance, it is practically invisible, so it gives the effect of being completely smooth. This ecru fabric is ideal for both baptism and ceremony. If you are looking for a winter baptism skirt, this christening skirt is usually very suitable for this time of year. It is usually chosen as a baby baptism robe for the autumn-winter season as it is a long-sleeved baptism skirt.

Family christening skirts

It is very common for christening skirts to be passed down from generation to generation, with an old christening skirt in the family. In many families there are quality coattails that pass from parents to children and with which all generations of children have been baptized. The usual thing about these christening skirts is that they are handmade and made from natural fabrics. If you want to buy a christening gown that passes from parents to children, the important thing is that it is an intermediate size, so that it fits all the children who are going to be baptized, even if they have other sizes and preferably that it is not especially feminine or masculine, that it is rather a unisex christening skirt. It is also advisable that it be a mid-season christening skirt, neither very wintery nor very summery.

If I had to choose today family christening skirt, I would choose the Agnes model. It is a white christening gown with long sleeves, made of cotton with subtle lace on the neck and sleeves. It also has sleeves, so it won't be too warm if worn without anything else, but if it's cold you can wear it with a bodysuit underneath or even with a little cardigan. As for the size, I would choose a size 9m, since it is normal for children to be baptized at 4 or 6 months, and this way it can give a little more room for slightly older babies. Finally, I would choose to order all the accessories, christening cap and diaper cover to match the skirt, even the cape. Don't worry, the bonnet is unisex and is useful in case any of the families baptizing their baby want to use all the accessories in the skirt set.

Christening skirt accessories

Is it necessary to choose all the accessories to match the christening skirt? As always, this is more a matter of taste than anything else. The first accessory that we usually have doubts about is the bonnet. Skirt and bonnet are usually the most common pairing. If we are a bit protocolary, the white christening bonnet It is a garment that covers the head as a sign of respect within the church. It is true that children have to have their hood removed to wet their heads, precisely for this reason, they often get cold afterwards. To ensure that the baby stays warm, we recommend ordering a hood christening bonnet matching the skirt. 

Second, we have the christening diaper cover, which is a garment that is used, as its name suggests, to cover the diaper so that the drawings cannot be seen. But many times you ask us, why order a diaper cover if the diaper is not going to be seen because the skirt is long? Well, very easy, because the fchristening blanket It is completely open at the back so that when you pick up the baby and especially in photos, it does not wrinkle and so that it is easier to put on.

Another complement that you often doubt is the christening sash for baby. This is normal since it is an accessory that has begun to be put in color in recent years. Before it was always white or beige and generally it was not a garment in itself but rather a satin bow. However, we always recommend a pastel color, such as powder pink, or at least a beige to make a modern and contemporary christening skirt set and stand out against the beige color of the rest of the outfit.

On the other hand, we have the doubt of whether to put the skirt with a cape. The cape and hood are usually what is most seen and are the most traditional set.

The last accessory that you usually doubt whether you want or not is the pair of baby christening shoes. Normally babies are baptized very small. In fact, we almost always choose a newborn's skirt, so they don't walk and therefore don't need shoes. On the other hand, it is true that boys look better dressed with shoes, so although it is not an obligatory accessory, it is advisable to look for some christening shoes monkeys. Also keep in mind that this way the baby's feet won't get cold.

Christening skirts from first use to 36 months

As in the collection of ceremonies and communions, we understand that the circumstances of the events are not always the same. For this reason, on many occasions you ask us first-time skirts, for newborn or premature babies. But on other occasions, you ask us for larger sized skirts for older or larger children. The key is always to choose the model of christening skirt that is appropriate for their age.

Until when is it recommended to have a baptism with a skirt?

In general, it is recommended to christening skirts at most until the child can walk. When ordering the skirt with some time to spare, you should be aware that if the child starts to walk, it is advisable to shorten the skirt almost to the child's length. girl's christening dress. Another option if the child walks is to reserve the christening skirt only for the time of the ceremony and look for another alternative christening clothes for food. Either option is good for baptize a child who can already walk.

Baptism robes and christening gowns

Christening skirts are also called christening robes or christening gowns. They are different names for the same garment: a long dress that covers the feet to baptize babies when they are very small.

The waist skirt is a fairly traditional garment that you often don't like very much because you think that the little one is a little uncomfortable. The solution to this concern is to order a skirt such as the jade. This modern christening skirt It is an overgarment that is put on over a shirt or a romper or a onesie and can then be removed, making the child more comfortable in his baby christening clothes.
